Long interview with Sports World Of Wojciech Szczesny. The Barcelona goalkeeper spoke about his new teammates, focusing on who impressed him the most: “If you watch a match live it’s very different from seeing it on television and then watching it from the stadium you can see how the players behave. Cuba was impressive for me – commented the former Juventus player -. After seeing him on TV I expected him to be a modern type of defender, elegant with the ball, but softer. When you see him live, in reality he is not at all soft and takes excellent decisions.
Of course he is good with the ball because his technical quality is very high, but in reality his defensive qualities are very, very high. I can’t wait to play with him. I was very impressed. Even the defenders. It is not necessary to talk about Lamine Yamal, but it makes no sense. I know Yamal but the defense plays very differently from what I’m used to, I was very impressed.
I was really struck by their character and the way they behave on the pitch – concluded Szczesny -. So I’m looking forward to creating a strong, positive connection with them.”
