I want to ask about Patrick Dorgu and his performance, he seems to have good end product and also the fact he was telling the referee he didn’t think it was a penalty that he’d won, so as a manager, do you like to see that?
“It depends. It is the right thing to do. So I am quite proud of him, but it depends. I cannot say if it is 0-0 or we are losing, if I would have the same response! So he did well. He did a great performance and he was improving during the game. He is learning a lot in that position. He has that physicality and he is clearly able to be able to play in our league. So it was a good game and it was a good action from Dorgu.”
We speak a lot about Bruno Fernandes, people criticise him, as you’ve said before. Today, when you are losing, and you need someone to step up, he has done it again. Can you just explain what he brings to this team?”It is not just the team, it is the club. We have already talked a lot already about Bruno [Fernandes] and we know that sometimes he is frustrated, we know that he wants to win so bad that sometimes when the things are not [good], or we are not playing well, he is changing position and goes after the ball after the goal. Sometimes he needs to trust a little bit more in his team-mates, to allow them to do their job and also to play better. When we need him, he is always there, with set-pieces, he can bring the ball forward, he can score goals, he can make transitions, like he showed today in the last 10 minutes of the game. He is a perfect captain for our team and we need to help him win titles because he deserve a lot.”
