Rewarded by his former club before Lens-Roma, Neil El Aynaoui spoke to reporters at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis.
“It’s always a pleasure to come back here; it’s been a great two years. In terms of winning and performance, we’re improving day by day and hope to be ready for the start of the season.”
“As I was saying, we’re working hard. Now it’s about getting into the swing of things, setting the pace, and putting into practice what the coach asks of us.”
“The most important thing is to help the team. If the team is strong, my mission is complete.”
“Gasperini’s instructions? Play the ball, press, try to defend but in a proactive way. I have some things to improve, but I’m on the right track.”
“The coach asks us midfielders to cover that area, not to lose the ball quickly. I’m adapting, but I’m listening to the coach’s instructions.”
