“But that can change and will definitely change in the season when we will have to rotate because we cannot play all the games with the same players.

“Today you have seen how important the substitutes are: we need the right bench and the right balance, and that is frustrating for the player.

“But it's about the team and the club and there will be more players who will be in this position, but we expect them to fight for the club.

“We have a lot of games to play and everyone will have minutes and you will have to show what you are worth.”
