Gianluigi Donnarumma, 25-year-old goalkeeper, did not take part in the 1-0 victory against Lens this Saturday as part of the 10th day of Ligue 1 (PSG/Lens video summary). However, he spoke on the sidelines of this match in an interview on Sportmediaset and revealed his dream at PSG as well as the criticism he regularly endures.
Donnarumma « I feel like one of the leaders of the team and I dream of winning the Champions League at PSG.”
“I feel good in Paris, now I also feel very good thanks to the birth of my son. I feel like one of the leaders of the team and I dream of winning the Champions League at PSG.
I feel the responsibility to give something to the newbies. And then luckily we have a captain (Marquinhos) who is a very good captain, he keeps us all in line, helps the new young guys to grow.
Donnarumma « I am very self-critical of myself”
I am very self-critical of myself. At the end of the match, I always try to understand what I can do better, what more could have been done, maybe with a goal conceded.
Since I left Italy, I've been a little too focused, it's a little annoying but now I have broad shoulders, so I know how it works and I know what I have to do to stay in my bubble. »
Donnarumma is a strong man at PSG, even if many people doubt his level. He is capable of the worst as well as the best and this is something that does not suit everyone. We also know that the more football personalities express doubts, the more the networks abound with negative and sometimes insulting messages.
However, Donnarumma is a leader of the team, he loves the club, the supporters and has never failed to greet the public. He is appreciated by everyone, which makes him an essential figure in the squad. He's one of the best guards on his goal line and that doesn't really matter to everyone even though it's the foundation of the position.
It's average on the feet, but not catastrophic. Finally, he has a huge gap, it's the aerial sorties, he's not getting through it, he's not progressing. However, we cannot reduce him to this flaw, he is much more than that, for PSG and its teammates. It's up to him to grow to show that he is capable of being a more complete player.
