“It's difficult to keep going as we are when having so many fixtures to fulfill: they all have their difficulties, we need to stay strong and stay focused. We still have two and a half busy months ahead. I commended Asllani on how he has worked: from the outside you can't always tell, but Kristjan also worked hard last year. He tries to learn in every training session and this week he played three great games, as did the whole team. Everyone is doing very well, Sanchez and Arnautovic for example were vitaly in this run at the beginning of 2024, but I didn't need the goals to know that, the two of them are important, as are Lautaro and Thuram, who are doing very special things. Titles count more than records, in addition to feeling good: my greatest satisfaction is seeing the team play like this with every player contributing, then the rest follows. We've won a Supercoppa Italiana, qualified for the Club World Cup, we are achieving great results in the league, now we will see what happens in the Champions League, which will be very difficult. This year we have changed a lot, we have brought in new players but they are all working well: the club helps me to make things go as well as possible, These guys have been very open. We are doing very well but there are still two months to go: we need to recover physically now, rotation in this period is slightly limited. We could have gone 3-0 up, but Vasquez's goal made the game difficult: we did well. The club did well bringing Thuram in. He has great qualities and has fitted in very well: credit goes to him for the way he is working.”
