Fabregas: Arsene Wenger believed in me when I was 16 and that belief still inspires me today

Hupu News on October 19, Como defeated Juventus 2-0 at home in the seventh round of Serie A. Como head coach Cesc Fabregas attended the press conference after the game.

How satisfied are you with this game?

"Overall very satisfied, not just because of the result. Although the result is important, it is not the only thing that matters. When you do everything well, the results will follow. Our game philosophy has not changed, but the situation is different today because we have no winger. You need to prepare and adapt in a different way. I think the players who came on the bench today performed well. Moreno played well, Diego Carlos and Kempf were also great. Perrone is a purely intelligent player. There are not many players like him, and Cacre also performed well."

"At the tactical level, we prepared the game very well and made Juventus play very hard. We always hope that the team will learn to win anxious games, not just a 5-0 victory, but to know how to win. The team understands the significance of this game, and Juventus' Yildiz and Conceicao are both capable An outstanding player who can always create a threat. We lost a lot last year, but we are trying to change that. We have to do the same thing, but do it better, and play with a winning mentality."

You hugged the players after the game and gave a passionate speech. Can you talk about it?

"I asked them a question, and everyone expressed their own opinions. To be a real winner in life, courage and personality are essential, but in addition to that, you must have quality and believe until the end. If two people have the same mentality, they can always find a way to win."

"These boys have already gone through 4 games without fans because of the solidarity act of our fan base for the city and the people of Como. Today we are all together, it is a city-wide victory, the first such victory in more than 50 years. To be able to do it in this way and show such strength Capacity and unity are what we are proud of. "

Wenger also came to the stands to watch the game today...

"Yes, I personally got the tickets for him. He called me four weeks ago and said he had a chance to watch the game. He was the one who brought me to Arsenal. Although I didn’t see him on the sidelines today, we chatted for an hour before the game. This is an honor and joy for me. Arsene Wenger believed in me when I was 16 and that belief still inspires me and I try to pass that spirit on to the younger players. "

Only conceded 5 goals in 7 games. Although Ramon was injured, your defense was very solid.

"Yes, we do have a lot of missing players, but there are never excuses in the football world. They said they were short of players before against Atalanta, but I don't like to make excuses. This has never been our style. The first thing is to have a concept and identity. Today we face Juventus, a team that will go to the Bernabeu to play in the Champions League in three days. Tudor is outstanding. Coach, Juventus is a great club and he called us a role model before the game, which is a huge affirmation for us. This game is a huge test for us. Today we start again in Como with a new atmosphere and ideas, and I am very happy that we can be his example."

This is the first time you have beaten a big team this season. Is this a signal?

"Last year we also had a chance to beat some big teams, but in the end they came close. This year, I can see the players growing every day. Coach Tudor must win, and we are writing a different story. We miss winning very much and cherish it even more."
