In the upcoming first round of the Premier League on August 17th, Beijing time, Fulham will go to Old Trafford Stadium to challenge Manchester United. Before the game, Fulham coach Marco Silva was interviewed by the media, and expressed his views on the team's personnel changes, lineup building and the joining of new aid Smith Rowe.
Talking about the transfer of midfielder pallinha to Bayern Munich, Marco Silva said: "pallinha's departure is undoubtedly a big blow to us, but football is like this, and the flow of players is the norm. We are glad that players like Sasa Lukic and Harrison Reid can be qualified for that position, and they all have excellent ability and potential. However, in order to keep the team competitive, we still need to introduce a new player in that position. Although I prefer to finish this work during the preseason, the reality is that we have to wait patiently, because playing in the Premier League is an arduous task for us, and it is full of challenges both on and off the court."
Marco Silva also talked about the team's lineup building: "This summer, we lost starting and key players like Adalabioyou, Rim, De Cordova Reid, palinha and William, which was a huge blow to the team. But we can't be discouraged by this, but we should rebuild the team as we did when we lost mitrovic last season. The board of directors is actively working hard to promote the work, hoping that they can sign the players we need. Together, we all believe that we will overcome difficulties and achieve our goals."
Marco Silva expressed his welcome and expectation for the joining of the new aid Smith Luo: "Smith Luo is a very talented player, and he needs time to adapt to the new environment and tactical system, so as to play his best level. In the preseason, he has shown his strength, performed very well in two games and scored two beautiful goals. He is a player who can enter the restricted area and create opportunities, which is exactly what we need. I am glad Smith Luo can join us, and I believe his arrival will inject new vitality and creativity into the team."
