″Here is always walking, in Portugal it was lacking″
Statements by Palhinha, Portuguese international from Fulham – Premier League team -, interviewed by Channel 11
leave after game: “Bruno Fernandes [do Manchester United] You already told me that when the game is over you can walk home. Quietly. The fans around them, but civilized, without disrespect. In Portugal it was unthinkable to happen. They are different mindsets. There is more respect for the player, for the family. The person knows when to intervene or not. I was used to something different. It seems that the players cannot have a close relationship with the fans. That should change in clubs, in fans too”
Family in England: “I had my brother on the bench [Fulham.Liverpool], my parents are coming at the end of this month and I will have more family in the future as I am already in the new house. Send me messages of encouragement, they gave me messages of encouragement. Nothing out of the ordinary, I felt like they were looking for me. Our family feels our profession.”
a Premier League: “Here there’s no shortage, it’s always walking, but I didn’t think they would mark the lack. what was missing, what was missing, go to the way I reacted.”
Aggressiveness: “I’m an aggressive player. But I don’t have an advantage in this type of game with malice. That’s my way of playing, here I feel freedom. A cut is as if they live football. play more. We have a lot of ability and quality. It will be more and more talked about and seen more if we play more. I focus on the team not conceding goals, I’m trying to improve with my abilities, but I always give everything and I don’t let it succeed.”
sweaters: “I asked Thiago Alcântara, but he switched with Andreas Pereira, it’s for the second lap… I greeted Darwin and Luis Díaz. A sign of respect. I insisted on that. There’s no time for more than that.”
