It’s part of the game, as long as everything stays there, it’s fine.”

What happens in the game, that’s it.I didn’t see anything; sometimes the comments come in, the play was strange, Julian’s too, but since I didn’t see them, I don’t want to give my opinion too much… we’re not used to that, but it’s going to make us grow.“.
