""I have to highlight something about the team, it's the group, because obviously we're relying on the players who come on and understand how to get into the games," he said. "It's happened many times, and I won't name names, but you already know who they are. The players who came on in previous games have scored goals. Thiago Almada, for example, didn't play today, but he's just come off the bench to score two goals."
"Today, Raspadori, who was doing a lot as I explained, came on and did very well. Sorloth, whether he plays or not, whether he starts or comes on in the second half, gives his all. I think these are all important things for everyone."
