Without publicly admitting a goal for the end of the season, the former “Lions” coach says he believes it will be “judged” for the final classification, but it devalues.
“A lot of people will say it’s not enough. My goal is just to win this game. Having another week to prepare for the next game. I know it’s a very difficult job. I know not many people believe it. In Portugal we already experience this. Let’s see what will happen this time,” he says.

He admits that, after his first contacts with Manchester United, he realized that it was “his place”: “I think it was the right club at the right time for me.”
