Ella Palis : “Je me sens super bien à Bordeaux, c’est un grand club”
On Channel, Ella Palisthe Girondins de Bordeaux midfielder, shared his personal situation.
“I arrived in Bordeaux two years ago, and I signed for three years. We have a good group, a good atmosphere, and I feel really good in Bordeaux. I think that at Guingamp I had done my time, I wanted to see something else. Bordeaux was an opportunity for me, because it’s a big club. We had the Champions League project. It was a great project for me. It also allowed me to taste the French team so in the end, it’s still a good choice for me. I don’t regret it at all, I’m very satisfied.”
Then the young Bordeaux girl spoke about her role within the team.
“My role in the team is perhaps to bring a bit of my experience, my experience in the French team. We know we have a lot of young people in the team, but everyone has something to contribute. It is not because I participated in the Euro or that I am in the French team that I have to bring more than another. Everyone has something to contribute, and that’s what makes the team”.
Finally, the midfielder talks about the importance of bodybuilding for a professional player.
“Muscle is important, it’s part of football especially for the upper body, in duels. It is important. All that is weight training, pre-warming up, indoor work, these are things that you do not necessarily see when you are on the ground, and it is very important. It’s also part of being a footballer. It’s often a part that we neglect a little more because we want to be on the field, and to play football, to kick the ball… But here, with age and experience, we meets that it is by doing that that you feel best after on the ground. This is a part that should not be overlooked and taken seriously. When we do this job well, afterwards we feel it on the ground”.
