Interviewed at the microphone of Canal+ on the Russian goalkeeper's mistake after the defeat, Luis Enrique took his responsibilities and asked that he be burdened and not Safonov. “There is always this desire to look for someone to blame. If there's anyone to blame, it's me. I am responsible. There you go, you have found the culprit. From there, I accept all criticism.”
“However, I would be surprised if Donnarumma becomes number 2”
“I think Gianluigi Donnarumma is a great talent, but he hasn't progressed as expected. His problem is the kicking game. However, I don't understand the choice of Luis Enrique because Safonov is not flawless. However, I would be surprised if Donnarumma becomes number 2. Afterwards I don't know what Luis Enrique thinks. But for last night, I don't understand his choice. Donnarumma remains one of the best goalkeepers in Europe. ». declared Michele Tossanijournalist for Tuttosport and the Corriere della Serain comments relayed by Foot Market.
