He said: “I understand that if you want to be successful as a team, you need 11 men who are committed to a project and a culture.

“But I think he has to elaborate on how he feels before you as a player can start measuring and weighing.

“The coach has not been satisfied, and that is what I will take with me. You do what you can to please him.

“What I do know about myself is that I am an honest player. I am a player who always gives 100 per cent of myself for the team.”
