We also have a lot of new players to adapt to the system that the manager wants to implement. I'm certainly confident in that. We have to be patient. Good results will come slowly. "
On Leao: "He's in great shape and trains every day with a smile that never goes away. He's done a lot of things that maybe the outside doesn't see because now people are only focused on assists and goals, but he's helped the team a lot on the defensive end.
'He's been working hard and as the manager said, he's going to start tomorrow and that's the night he played. Even if Leao doesn't score or assist, we have a lot of confidence in him. The most important thing is that he stays true to himself, keeps smiling, and keeps his passion for his work. "
