SAMPAOLI’S SPEECH
After the victory over Corinthians in round of BrasileirãoSampaoli had answered about the intensity of the dynamics with the squad, in the midst of frequent injuries: “I received the team in a way, and the only way to change the way is to work, work, work. I see no other way to improve the team. And just like that it has that kind of consequence. For me, it would be much easier not to work. To play at the intensity I want, you have to work and demand a lot more”.
