He prefers 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 and constantly wants to see his players in possession of the ball. I think he will make Panathinaikos improve a lot” said the Portuguese footballer in sport-fm.gr and added:

“He wants to have a good relationship with everyone and he wants to create a friendly relationship with his players. Not just professional. I’m sure that everyone at Panathinaikos will love him for who he is and for his ways. He will definitely make the team play better from now on. Panathinaikos with him can become a team that will completely control the situation on the pitch against every opponent. He is a great coach”.
