De Zerbi's full reaction
“I am happy with the victory, but I am disappointed by the goal conceded. We made 5 substitutions, and we forgot one of their players at the start of the action. We need to make progress on this. It's not the same to win 5-0 and 5-1, especially considering the mentality.
Cornelius (replaced in the 79th minute) had a muscle problem, so I decided to give Bakola a chance to play. Rabiot (replaced in central defense, editor's note) can play anywhere. He's a great player, very smart.
There are no secrets. The real secret is to work every day, progress, better understand how to play these matches. The last two matches against Lille and Monaco were different. We had higher pressure, and it was a much more vertical game. There it was different, we had to be more patient, we couldn't force passes, we can't take risks, we can't suffer counter-attacks. We have to work on the combinations, the one-twos, like on Garcia's goal (5-0). We attacked differently on the right side compared to the left side, especially with Murillo and Henrique. On the other hand, we are going to attack the spaces with Rabiot.
Luiz Felipe? We are very happy that he is arriving, he is a good player for us, in terms of personality, quality, experience. He will be ready to bring us something,” declared the Italian, speaking to DAZN.
