On the eve of Tuesday's Matchday 5 UEFA Champions League clash away to FC Bayern at the at the Fussball Arena München, Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Vitinha spoke at the traditional pre-match press conference.
We're very motivated at the idea of playing this Champions League match against Bayern Munich, one of Europe's best teams. We have to turn this pressure into something positive. We know that we won't be eliminated if we lose tomorrow, but we want to win. When you're Paris Saint-Germain, you play every game to win.
We know we're going to be playing a very, very good, world-class team. They haven't conceded a goal in many games. We know that tomorrow they're going to put us under pressure, and we'll have to respond to that. We're going to follow the coach's plan and give it everything we've got.
Of course Bradley wants to score, to assist and make the difference, but you can't just ask the forwards to score, it has to be the whole team that can attack. Against Toulouse, we scored three goals: two by midfielders and one by a defender.
Gonçalo is very happy to be back in the squad. He missed playing, and we're here to help him when he can play with us again.
As for Presnel, we're all really happy for him. I can imagine what it feels like to be travelling and training with the squad again. The hardest part is behind him and now he needs to enjoy himself.
The coach has given me a lot. Now it's up to me to prove that it wasn't just for one year. He's a coach who's helped me develop a lot so far.
I'm really happy in Paris. I feel good here, and so does my family. I love this club, the project and the direction it's taking. I see no reason why I shouldn't stay at Paris Saint-Germain for a very long time.
