"Liam Rosenior confirmed that Enzo Fernandez received a two-match internal suspension after an interview during the international break in which he appeared to court Real Madrid. He stated, 'I had three or four conversations with Enzo... He's apologised to me, he's apologised to the club, and we'll deal with that after a massive game on Sunday.'"
"'It's a serious meeting about something very serious that Enzo has said. Every single step along this way, I'm not questioning Enzo's character... I believe people make mistakes and you can't overstep the punishment for the mistake.'"
"'Football is a team sport; it's not about individuals, it's not about shooting yourself in the foot... There are certain values and cultures that I believe in, that this club believes in, that makes the team stronger if you get that right.'"
