In the first round of Serie A, Como defeated Lazio 2-0. After the match, Cesc Fàbregas was interviewed by camel.live.
Talking About the Match
“We are a highly aggressive team, and our goal is to play well, apply pressure, and stay organized. I have high demands for the players both in possession and out of possession. Last season, we struggled a bit in the final 20 to 30 minutes of games.
The summer transfers were aimed at addressing this issue, ensuring we can always find solutions that fit our style of play. In today’s match, we only took a slight risk with Castellanos’ offside goal, but that’s normal—there’s no such thing as a perfect game, especially when facing a strong opponent like Lazio. I’m really moved to see the team play like this; it’s a great satisfaction.”
Talking About New Signings
“They are all very young players, but they are accustomed to developing in the youth academies of top teams. They have a winning mentality, are used to possession-based play, and know exactly how to handle the ball. Most of these players are only 19 or 20 years old—sometimes they will make mistakes, but sometimes they will also put in brilliant performances. The important thing is to persevere in difficult moments, and I believe in them. Ramón is going through his first full professional season; he’s here to grow and make progress.
It’s a lie to say that spending money guarantees immediate wins—there are still many areas where we need to work hard. Overall, I’m very satisfied, and I’m also happy with the energy displayed by the substitutes who came on. Everyone is important, and everyone can make a difference.”
Talking About Rumors of Nico Paz’s Transfer
“That’s not something I should talk about. I’m very calm, and I know he’s very happy. His dream is to become a top player, so he must keep working hard and continue performing like he did today.”
