This is how football works and how it should work in my opinion. You should never be able to just settle down. You should always have competition. I think that strengthens the team, and I enjoy this atmosphere at the club here as well. “I am planning to play (against Saint-Etienne), obviously; it is competition. I see the manager as someone who, if you put in effort and show you are doing well in training and in games when you get subbed in, will give it back to you and give you chances. Football is all about getting chances and then using them as well. Obviously I will be there; I want to play, and who doesn't want to play? I am confident, of course. That is why I am here; I'm not here to sit on the bench.
