In an opinion article published in the magazine Dragões, titled “The ambition that unites us”, the president did not spare praise for the Italian coach, stating that his leadership brought “inspiration” and “a modern but effective approach” to the blue and white's football.

“We notice, already in the first games, that we have a more enlightened, intense and motivated team. We witness in each game a total commitment from the players, solidarity among all and a deep respect for the FC Porto emblem and for the fans”, wrote Villas-Boas.

The leader also highlighted the choice for a guided and considered recruitment policy, referred to as “surgical and rational”, which respects the financial sustainability of the club, and underlined the relevance of the union between team, board and fans: “FC Porto is yours. Your strength is the true strength of this club.”
