“From the beginning, we knew that we would miss him. He is the type of player who, when the game is not going well, with his movements and aggressiveness, lifts the team up.
“A squad needs these types of players, and that is why we miss him. But we don’t have him, and now what we can do is wait for him to come back. He is a special player, and since I arrived, I saw that he had something that the team needed. He has talent and aggression.
“Sometimes you have to stop him, but other times he is the one who pulls the team together and says, ‘Come on guys, let’s go’. He pushes. And he has a great personality; he is a very nice guy that everyone loves.
“I’m waiting for him; I want him to come back soon. But there is no need to pressure him; although, seeing how he is working, I am sure that everything will be fine.”
