“But you know, I know and Jim knows that football is not like that. The most important thing is the next game, you can’t control, even with the owners, you can’t control the next day in football”.<\/p>Ruben Amorim<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nThe coach also commented:\n\n

“It’s really good to hear that. Also because of the noise, but Omar [Berrada] and Jason [Wilcox] tell me all the time.”<\/p>Ruben Amorim<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\u201cI know it\u2019s going to take a while, but I don\u2019t want to think like that. It\u2019s really good to hear that. I think it helps our fans understand that leadership is going to take time.\u201d\n\n

“At the same time, I don’t like that, because it will give the feeling that we have time to solve things. So I don’t want that feeling here in our club”.<\/p>Ruben Amorim<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

“Perhaps it’s the expectations”.<\/p>Ruben Amorim<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

“When you have to win and the answer to winning is much more difficult to play like that. That’s why, when you play in big clubs, you need to win every game”.<\/p>Ruben Amorim<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

“Especially when people expect you to win. Sometimes we have some difficulties dealing with that.”<\/p>Ruben Amorim<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n
