“Facu, is giving us joy in the game,” he said. “As you all could see, he is dynamic and his engagement with the ball and trying to create actions is normal, whereas for new players when they have this competition, they find things that they are not used to, maybe the speed of the game, the physical aspect of the league and all those things,” he added.
According to the DT, Torres showed “moments of dynamics and technique” that “will help a lot” to the team. “We are very happy with him and I thought of the people today I also saw those flashes of talent that Facundo can bring to the team,” he added.
Regarding Araújo, he stressed that “he played like a veteran”. “He is happy to be here and I think he will bring us a lot of options because he can play alone and we can put someone else with him, but today he also gave us the impression that he has been here for a long time,” he added.
