“I know some people were doubting his level of speaking English, his performance in front of the camera, but you see him growing every week as a manager, and I think he can do a great job at any top side in Europe.
His tactics, his way of thinking about football, is very interesting, and it would be great if he was to get an opportunity at a top side.”
