When asked about the performance of Argentine reinforcements Enzo Fernandez, the Eagles’ German coach, Roger Schmidt, was very complimentary. He stressed that “Enzo is a key player, and he is still very young, but he has intuition, makes good decisions on the ground, and is a very important player for us.”
On the continuity of Goncalo Ramos and whether the financial income from qualifying for the group stage could be important in keeping the young scorer, Roger Schmidt replied: “It’s not just about money. The economic issues are very important, the money we have now is very important and gives another stability We have two more weeks before entering the competition and we will see what happens until the end of the transfer period.”
Roger Schmidt also left a word of appreciation for the red fans: “Our players are connected to each other, there is a very strong and positive team spirit. The players who started today gave positive feedback, so did those who joined and that’s what we always want. The atmosphere in the stadium tonight was great, the fans were very supportive and I see a great relationship between all of us. The fans deserve to watch the Champions League matches and I am very happy for them.”
As for the draw, the German was conservative: “At the moment we have reached the Champions League and we will see after that what the draw will dictate.”
