Paulo Fonseca doesn’t go for it and won’t budge on Leao

Paulo Fonseca presented the Champions League challenge against Slovan Bratislava in a press conference: "We talked about how important it is to win tomorrow. We have to look at the fact that we play here against a team with totally different characteristics and how è important it is for us to have the right attitude to win. We cannot underestimate this team".

"Leao rest? I honestly don&#39t know, let&#39s see tomorrow. Rafa è an important player in our team, he is really in a good moment. But I have confidence in everyone: if Rafa doesn’t play then he will play someone else. We want so much to win here: not è that they will play a team not to win, they will play a team to win. There'èè the possibility that there is no Leao as well as there is. Abraham will playà".

So è returned to the tie with Juventus: "We have the awareness of what we did well and what we did less well. We did several things less well. The dimension of things in Milan seems different to me. I watch every weekend matches like Saturday, it seems that a draw looks like a defeat for Milan, while a win looks like a victory for other teams. The important thing is that the team is doing well".

"I respect opinions. I can&#39t talk about concretely about who talks and how they talk, I don&#39t watch. But I respect them. I think it è not right, not è totally right to say such a thing. If we look at what are the results in the league I understand that we could have done much better. But if we understand everything that è has been this process then I say that it is not è right. We can look at the result and criticize, we can then look at the process of growth and say that it è not fair. But that è my opinion and I respect that of others" concluded Fonseca.
