Delio Rossi Said:
“It was a workout, the level of our opponents was very low. In this period we have to live with fatigue, such as Shepherd today had seemed a cut above. I am very pleased, I saw progress on the resistance and later we will work on improving the quality gloss.
This is an important basis to be acquired now, given that the next time, hopefully, will be busy all three days. They came to view children but be careful with young people and requires much patience. Shepherd and Hernandez? If last year were two surprises now will continue, two boys are very intelligent and with many qualities, I expect a lot from them. ”
