It’s up to us. We were playing well and getting good results until the end of the last period.”On the defeat to Man City in their last league match
“Of course, we lost the last match but I don’t consider it at all a bad performance and two weeks with a small group of players, waiting for news, good news, bad news, in national teams; no time to work together but we were in a good moment, playing well, so why not stay the same?“To improve and to get good results, because we need now to get points to jump into the position we are in the championship and next week with the Champions League we need points against Young Boys.“The supporters cannot do more than what they are doing. We went through a difficult period of results and the supporters were fantastic. They supported the team and in some matches even push the team to different levels than we were at the time. We cannot ask more from them. It’s for us to give them and make them to go to an even better level.”
