Francesco Farioli, coach of FC Porto, gave a preview of the match against Estoril, corresponding to the 12th round of the League, and was asked about the editorial by André Villas-Boas published in the magazine Dragões this week, which ended with the following remark: “We walk strong with our focus on the title, knowing in advance that there will be many traps.”
The president mentioned traps throughout the season – what was he referring to?
Traps are unexpected events – if they weren’t, they wouldn’t be traps. We have to keep our mechanisms alert to react and find the best solution. There are other issues, unfortunately obvious to all of us: one of them is the schedule; I get tired of always talking about it, but it’s still there. I like having a president who is very involved in the club’s daily activities, close and doing his best for FC Porto, striving to ensure that the competition is fair for everyone – that’s what we should focus on.
