We know the challenges and differences between us and them in quality and hierarchy, but we will be together to compete,” he explains.

I value him and I am grateful because It is not easy for players to want to show their faces in such negative moments. and return what they received from fans. But that’s how things have been since I’ve been here. And now it still happens. In addition to the painful things, we must also highlight the good things that speak of the team’s commitment.”

Future

heroes

It would be irresponsible if I say that we are rising, but I can say that we will work for it. We know you have to work hard. Defend ourselves better, compete better, take on more responsibility, know how to move forward in a tournament in tough times. One cannot be irresponsible. I believe in common sense. Our team will compete for promotion. The road is difficult and we will be very focused. “You have to prepare for a long and challenging year,” he said.

I don’t know how to tell the appointed date, but we must speak common sense, we understand each other. A footballer has a sense of belonging, but he also has ambition. We want players who want to be here, who are willing to work hard to get back to the Premier League. There is still time. I understand the concerns, but we are still on time”.

Want Lucas Boyé to continue?

I will fix these issues as they arise, but I can’t control this. Not suitable for me. I learned to live with uncertainty. I trust the job, the capacity, the field, the football player and I know that too… This is also a feeling of trust. To trust without knowing what will happen tomorrow”.
