“We need to accept the situation. It’s like when I try to explain the situation of the squad, maybe I need to explain also [to] the fans. We need to accept it”, said the manager. “The fans in football live on expectation and always wanting the best for the club and the player”.
“When you don’t match the expectation, that is the difficult thing for our fans to understand. I talked in the past, I am strong, I have no problem. We are going to keep moving in the same direction”, he added.
“I don’t ask that they trust me, they need to trust in the club, because at the end if I am here that is because of the decision of the club. It is not to trust in me or to trust in the players, it is to trust the club, that the club is doing or thinks is good for the club. It is about to trust in everyone not only me”, he added.
