At the press conference to preview the game with Ajax, João Palhinha was asked about the differences between the pair that plays in midfield with Matheus Nunes compared, last season, with João Mário. “We have adapted very well. Matheus [Nunes] he is an excellent player, but we also have several other quality players, Dani, Ugarte, Tabata can also play in that place…», praised the Portuguese international.
Continuing the analysis, João Palhinha continued to praise the partner of the field center, without forgetting his teammates as well as the work of the staff headed by Rúben Amorim: «Matheus is a different player than João Mário, but I won’t talk much about João Mário because he is no longer part of our squad. As for Matheus, everyone already knows and recognizes his value and quality. But also from Dani and Ugarte because all our kids have grown visibly and this is due to the work of the technical team.”
