Plead on how difficult or easy for a goalkeeper to be a coach, the former Villarreal man answered
“It’s not easier or more difficult than another player. To play is one thing; to coach is another thing. Of course, I work with what I have in my memories. I learnt a lot when I was playing and I’m trying to teach some of that to the players.
“Of course, when I finished my career as a player, I started to learn about coaching. To coach is different. You have to do better. And, now I’m a coach and I try to do my best. You talk to the players and try to teach them some tactics and decide who will play and make a great team.
“I’ve had great coaches in my career. I could learn a lot from them. I had good coaches in Europe. I learnt some things from one and some things from another and I try to take some thins from them that I like. And, now I am the coach. I’m trying to teach the players.”
Chennaiyin FC have lost variant players such as Apoula Edel, Mailson Alves and John Mendoza, Elano Blumer, Bruno Pelissari,Molina believes that the Italian {Marco Materazzi} coached side is very much potent crew.
“I think Chennai have a strong team. It’s true that they lost so many players from last season. But, they have signed some great players again. It’s true that they are a strong team. We don’t know how they can play, because it’s the first match. We didn’t watch any pre-season match. Before the first match, it’s always more difficult to know about the opponent. They have the same coach, so I’m sure that it will be a great team again. But, this is a challenge to us; to play in our style; with our supporters, to do our best and again, try to win,” he replied.
“Some of them couldn’t come to Spain and it was a problem for us because, they lost one month in training sessions. I hear what they want and now, after 10 days here in Kolkata, they work really well and I’m really happy with all the players,” he mentioned.
