The match against Lille
« I think it was a difficult away game, with all that entails. We played against an opponent of Champions Leaguemore in rhythm than us. The difference was very clear between the two teams. We tried to control the ball, I am rather satisfied with the team’s performance. »

Regret not having recruited a backup for Nuno Mendes?

Reassured before the Champions League?
« My team is showing signs of safety. We still lack physical rhythm, in several of our players. That was the difference with Lille. The
Champions League is very different and full of new things. There will be the match against Brest after the truce and it will have nothing to do with the Champions League and its new formula. I can’t know how it will be. »
The blows
defensive set pieces ?
« JI don’t know of any team that doesn’t need to improve some area of play. I saw a game recently with a team made up of huge players who were conceding goals from set pieces. We need to improve but we’ll never be a team with size.. »
