Milan, 9 Sept. (LaPresse) – “The focus will be on Como’s first Champions League match, but for me it’s just another game to win. I’m only thinking about preparing my players as well as possible so we can get as close as possible to victory.” This was stated by Como manager Cesc Fàbregas during a press conference on the eve of the Champions League match against RB Leipzig. The Spanish manager did not give anything away regarding the line-up. “We’re reaching a level where it’s now difficult to decide who plays, because everyone is performing well and is ready to help the team. That’s the most important thing,” he added. “We’ve known each other for two and a half years now; I’m interested in the match, not the experience. Yesterday we saw players with 100 Champions League appearances who conceded goals. For me, what matters is choosing those who are ready to play in order to secure victory,” Fabregas reiterated when asked whether his team might pay the price for their lack of experience. Finally, on the speech he will give to the team, Fabregas concluded: “I won’t prepare a speech; I’m someone who says what I feel.”
