Lucas Meuli: "Slow start, but we’ll bounce back" | OneFootball

The substitute goalkeeper spoke to the press after the friendly match against 9 de Julio and said the following

Well, as I was saying, these are minutes to add up, to take advantage of in every way, especially since we haven’t been getting many minutes lately.

Leo sometimes asks us to be at 100%, at our best, because anyone can get their chance at any moment. Personally, I feel very good, working hard, doing my bit for the team. The group is excellent, we never let ourselves get down, we’re always very united.

We had a start to the championship that wasn’t quite what we expected, but we’re doing well, we’re going to bounce back. We’re convinced that we’re going to turn things around, that we’re going to fight in the championship.

On a personal level, as I was saying, I feel very good, making the most of it, grateful to the coaching staff for this opportunity and taking full advantage of it. I know my moment may come, but with patience.

First, Aldosivi, as I said on Sunday, is a final for us, we’re taking it one step at a time, and on Sunday we have another final.

The other day against San Lorenzo, I think we deserved more, but football isn’t about what you deserve, we just couldn’t get the ball in the net. We’re working on that, and we want to tell the Unión fans to stay calm, that we’re doing well. First, we have Sunday’s final.

No, no, no, just work, work, always pulling in the same direction. It’s a healthy competition, from day one when Fede arrived we set it up that way, healthy competition as I said and nothing more than that.

No, no, I don’t think it’s fragility, maybe we’re just a bit off. The other day we hit the post twice, the keeper made two great saves, so things just aren’t going our way, but we’re improving to score that goal, for the goal to come. Hopefully on Sunday it’ll open up for the forwards or for any defender or midfielder.

No, as I’ve been saying all along, the club is my second home, I love the club, I love the people. From day one when I arrived at the club, I was very well received, with open arms. I like the group we have and I wanted to stay and fight for a spot.
