“The fan has to be told the truth, on my behalf while I am here I will give my 100% and the day that those who make decisions here consider otherwise, I am willing to leave America, because the most important thing is that the team qualifies and it will be the decision of other people. As long as I am working and trying to get the team to play as they did in the second half and the day that I'm not going to force it, so that it does very well, that it can qualify in the finalists.”
