"I've read nonsense in the press. You can't imagine that I would be so arrogant, conceited and stupid as to compare myself to a coach who manages a team in the Premier League."
"Slot is a coach of a top club. He deserves maximum respect. I am nobody. But since I am the head coach of the Hungarian national team, I think the Hungarian national team also deserves respect, at least because of its past."
"If we had to save his energy, whether it was for him or anyone else, he could do it. However, for us, the national team is the priority, now it is to play good games."
Marco Rossi rejected rumors of a feud with Liverpool's Arne Slot, labeling them as nonsense. He questioned the notion of comparing himself to a Premier League manager. Rossi publicly criticized Slot's decision to play Dominik Szoboszlai at right back and stated that the national team takes priority. He acknowledged substituting Szoboszlai and Milos Kerkez during a friendly match to manage their workload. Rossi emphasized the respect due to Slot and insisted there is no dispute between them.
