Schouten su Motta, Juve-PSV e Champions
Thus the midfielder, who starts from Thiago Motta: “He aims to play dominant football, it will be up to us to make sure that doesn’t happen. I haven’t had much time to work with him, but I’m grateful to him: He made me improve a lot, so when he went to Juve I sent him a message“. Speaking of Motta, how long does it take to fully understand his way of playing? “At Bologna we managed to do it early, I hope Juve hasn’t learned it yet. But tomorrow both teams will want to dominate the game: with him you don’t play typical Italian football, no catenaccio“.
The discussion then shifts to PSV: “We are very eager to get on the pitch. If we have improved compared to last year’s match against Arsenal (in their debut in the group stage they lost 4-0 in London, ndr)? Yes, absolutely. I’m happy with how things went last year, but now we have to look forward“. Finally on the new format of the Champions League: “It’s hard to answer, we haven’t played yet. I would say it’s nice because we’re in the top eight“.
