“I like McKennie, but I also like all the other players we have. I’m happy for him, he deserved a night like this. He’s working and he has to continue to do so. Tonight’s result is a good one to start the competition, now we just have to continue like this and improve in many things”. Words and thoughts of Thiago Mottacoach of the Juventus who commented on the victory for Sky’s microphones 3-1 against the PSV Eindhoven.
Vlahovic is a bit nervous when he doesn’t score. How will you handle it?
“Management is not difficult, Dusan always shows up in ideal conditions to train and play. I am happy with his work. Today he didn’t score and it is true that the striker always wants to score, it is also right that he has this ambition. He must manage the emotional side, it happens to a striker not to score but he must think that on the pitch there are other things to do and that the goal will come. We also have other arrows, the important thing is that he participates in the team game”.
What do you mean when you say you need to improve?
“Today we suffered a lot from PSV’s game, we are sure that we can do better in the possession phase. At this level, to compete against teams that like possession, you need to raise the level throughout the game, not just at times. I am happy with the result, very important for us, now we have to recover for the next league match and continue working as we are doing”.
