I can’t talk to the team, I’ve already removed players from the squad for a much smaller amount, I’ll have to come to terms with this and move on with my life. Obviously, I am also using the public part here to apologize to the Sporting fans, the staff and mainly publicly to my players for the mistake I made. Let’s also talk about the part of the speech I gave here that I missed. And it’s true. Things aren’t always black and white. Just like I couldn’t speak up at home when I said I’d train for another year and then stop being with them anymore. Now it’s time to focus on the game and move forward,” he said. preview of the classics from Porto.
