- Impressions
It was a good test with a very good team. Both teams did their best in the hot weather. This is what preseason is all about. It’s another preseason where we can go back and fix the things that didn’t work. I think matches like today will definitely help us. Thank you very much for making this tour to Korea an unforgettable experience.
- Any last words with Minjae?
Minjae is one of my favorite players and someone I really care about. I’m sure she’s becoming and will become one of the best players in the world. I’ve never 카지노사이트 추천 doubted her ability, so I’ve always had nothing but good things to say about her. I think he showed that on the pitch today. I think he showed Korean fans and soccer fans around the world what a great player he is. I’m really proud of him as a teammate and I’m sure he can do better in the future. I can’t remember what we talked about, but I think we were joking around and talking about things like that because we’re so close and he knows how much I care about him.
- He was talking a lot with his teammates on the way to the locker room.
Tactical stuff. We talked about how to position ourselves under pressure, and I think that’s where we’re a little bit lacking. We need to perfect the details one by one. It’s preseason to slowly get it together. It’s important that the players communicate with each other.
- We’re entering our 10th season in the Premier League.
I’m proud to have played 10 seasons in the best league in the world. It’s only possible because I’ve had so much help around me and so many people have helped me to be in the shape I’m in. But it doesn’t matter if it’s my 10th season, 11th season, or 20th season, I always try to start the season with a clean slate. I don’t set any goals, I just try to push myself to the limit, and hopefully it will be another year where I can grow as a soccer player and as a person.
- What are your thoughts on the contract issue?
I’m still with the club. I don’t have anything to say about it. If you always do your best in the position you’re in, anything can happen and you never know what’s going to happen, so if you always work hard, good things will come.
