What a rival awaits
“It was an important game, against a team that had problems at the beginning of the season, but a great game came together against Dortmund. They have quality, especially in front, technical and fast. We have to play a good game to try to win”
Have you talked to Vinicius?
“He’s fine, lively, in a good dynamic. Fully recovered from the Mallorca game. We don’t talk about this, it’s not something we need to talk about.”
Win another Champions
“This is a competition that has given us a lot of hope, happiness. It has brought me great success and I have a squad with the quality to keep fighting for something like this. We will fight and compete. In the Champions League you never know what will happen.”
Asensio
“He cannot be considered a young man or a veteran. He is doing well and since his anger, he is training very well. It is what happens when someone is angry, because you can train better or lower arms. And he chose the first . He has options to win tomorrow.”
Mbappe
“(Laughter) Lower your arms! I lower arms to this question! We have a great squad, with young people, with Benzema… a lot. What Vinicius and Rodrygo are doing excites us and right now we are not thinking . anyone else We have no doubts and we are not thinking about changing players either.”
The Leipzig
“Leipzig’s forwards are very dangerous, with Werner, Nkunku, Szobozslai, Forsberg… We are talking about a very dangerous team if you give them the chance to show their quality. I think the defensive aspect will be just as important of the offensive. , tomorrow”.
Relationship with Tite
“Very good. When it is necessary to discuss, we do, but now there is no need, because what Rodrygo and Vinicius are doing is very clear. He examines them and will make a decision”.
Vinicius and focus on football
“He has improved a lot in this sense and, obviously, everyone has their own character, but he has to focus on the game first. Nothing else”.
danger
“He followed what we asked of him in the two games he played. Without Benzema, we found replacements, one with Hazard and one with Rodrygo. I think Eden followed, yes; like the team in general . Against Mallorca, I didn’t ask him to score, he did what he had to do.”
What was Rüdiger’s contribution?
“Experience, desire to win, motivation. He is a very serious defender, focused, applied. We have improved defensively with him.”
Benzema came to the derby
“He is progressing well, there are options. But he will only play if there is no risk of injury.”
Vinicius, provocateur or provoke
“He is a great player, nothing more. We will not go into this issue. I am not deaf or stupid, I know what is being said, but it is not something that we should waste time on. Vinicius is has exceptional quality and it is normal for rivals to try to stop him. It must be done with respect, always based on the regulations, which must protect all footballers, not just Vinicius”.
