“2016 was another story”
“The idea is to build a footballing identity. (…) We hope to have a team that loves the game. Usually, we come to the moment of preparation, where with the sports management we set up a team with my idea and my face. Now the team is built differently. We have the opportunity to improve performance with these players. I think there is a consequence related to emotions, the team has lost confidence. You have to quickly return to the place that brought you to the top. This streak breeds insecurity, fear and disappointment. We have to change that into joy, we have good footballers (…). I think we think only about the next match. And we’ll think about the next one after that. We can’t waste time analyzing… My obligation is to convey an idea to the players, which they create to get out of this uncomfortable moment. Confidence in the penalty area is important for winning games. If there is no qualitative reality , we must invent an organizational reality. We have to turn it into a collective. 2016 was a different story. This story is gone. What matters is what comes now, a whole different story. We have to engage the players on an idea very quickly,” he said in a speech very focused on the importance of moving forward quickly with a lot of motivation.
