The experience at the Elite Cup in Munich “I have no doubt that it was a very demanding experience and that it helped the players adapt to adversity. I hope the message was clear. This will raise the level of pressure and demand in the future, and I hope they know how to deal with it, stay alert and manage to maintain this level.”

The challenge against FC Famalicão “Another league game. We want to show that we are a very serious, reliable and united team. I believe the game will follow that path, maintaining all the understanding we have been showing, which has translated into wins.”

The support at home “We always like it when Porto fans follow our team. We have been feeling that in our matches and, therefore, we are counting on them and we want them to enjoy our games.”

The triumph in the Elite Cup “It was a very good tournament from us. We learned a lot by playing against the best teams in Europe in an incredible and very well-organised tournament. It is in moments like these that we learn, and now we have to be able to bring this mentality into the league, from winning duels to always keeping our eyes on victory, which is a characteristic of FC Porto.”

A competitive opponent “FC Famalicão are a good team, with great players and a strong academy, but we are FC Porto and we fear nothing. It is another game that we will go into to win, and it will be a Porto-style game.”

A message to the fans “It is a weekday game and we know that many people work, but I hope the fans continue to support us, come to the stadium to watch us play and enjoy our football.”
