Quote

It is important to see how players respond to bad times. It's like a family. When everything is right, everyone enjoys it. When it goes wrong, right families respond in the right way. I wanted to check this and I am happy. I am very proud of my players because they can give the maximum.
2
I prefer it when everyone is against me, not my players. I'm an old man. I've seen a lot. I have been a manager since 1987. I can take it.
3
I prefer when everything is wrong to take responsibility. I don't want to put pressure on the new squad. The new squad is like a child. If a child makes a mistake and you put them under pressure, a child cannot grow up with confidence.
