The Manchester City midfielder is impressed by the work of his compatriot
Transcript
00:00Before he arrived, Sporting came from a period of almost 20 years without winning the league.
00:07And since he's been there, not only him but the president and the Sporting director,
00:14it looks like they all went in the same direction. And when that happens, when people are competent
00:23and have the same idea, go on the same way, the chances of doing well a job are much higher.
00:35And then as a manager, tactically, you can see that he's really good. You can see the way
00:39he prepares his teams. That Sporting was always, it was never this. It was always going upwards
00:48and upwards, better and better after each season. And they're a big machine right now,
00:54to be honest. I only have compliments because they've been flying in the Portuguese league and
00:59it's going to be very tough to beat them tomorrow, the way they've been playing.
01:05In terms of him going to Man United, well, I don't wish him very well, as you can imagine,
01:09because he's going to be my rival. But he deserves what he got. He deserves to be in one of the best
01:16clubs in the world right now because the work that he did in the last years has been unbelievable.
