Ready to make a positive start to his League Phase Europa League is Olympiacos, which begins its European journey after last year’s dream season, where it won the European Conference League.
The “red and white” face away from home Lyon and the Santiago Esewanted to… reassure the people of the team, after both unsuccessful results in the championship, stressing that game by game the image of Piraeus will improve. He emphasized that it is too much too early to draw conclusionswhile he emphasized that everyone in the team wants to help, in order for everyone to have him same respect to Olympiakos after winning the European title.
Among other things, he spoke about his competitive status, while he also answered about the Olympic Games in which he participated with the national team Argentinian.
His statements in detail:
On whether the two consecutive negative results bring extra pressure for tomorrow’s match: “We’re at the start of a competition, we’re a team that’s just starting to get into rhythm, we’ve got a lot of new players who are expected to help a lot in their own way. We are a very good team that will get to know each other, there is no need to rush and jump to conclusions. We proved last year that we can quickly change our mentality and image from one match to another. We don’t need to rush, we haven’t satisfied with our presence so far but we can improve that, change our image and it’s very positive that the games are one after the other.”
What he and his teammates are talking about these days in the locker room: “We constantly talk with each other, with all the staff, analyze what is happening and do our self-criticism. We want to continue to have the respect we gained after winning the European Championship. Despite the previous mistakes, we should not stop there. We have to see what we can do to fix them, working and continuing to fix our mistakes, doing better things than last year. We want the world to continue to respect Olympiakos, as it did last year after winning the European trophy.”
For him and the fact that he has been playing for over a year straight without interruption…: “I feel very good, I am ready. Whatever games I play I feel good, if I’m not okay I’ll tell the coach, I’ll give everything, I feel very good about myself, I had a good vacation in the summer and I’ll always give my best.”
What’s his take on how the Olympic quarter-final between France and Argentina ended: “This is in the past, it was a very beautiful experience participating in the Olympiad, but I am here to represent Olympiakos, I am focused here. We have to respect that. It was a shame that we didn’t make it to the next stage, but what counts now is Olympiacos and tomorrow.”
