On Sporting 1-1 Belenenses:

“We started off well with a positive attitude. We went into the game to win it and I think that showed.”

“Last season everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong. This year we’ve started off well which makes a huge difference. It gives you confidence.”

 

On Deyverson:

“He’s a great player – he’s shown everybody just how good he is. He’s worked hard and is reaping the benefits.”

 

On individual ambitions:
