Vitor Pereira: We need to play the way we want and fight for the three points


Vitor Pereira says the team learned a lot from the two games at Anfield in February and is using that experience to guide the team in preparation for the upcoming away game against Manchester City.  

 

Although disappointed with his side’s performance in the first half against the eventual Premier League champions, the head coach was pleased with the improvement shown in the second half, as the team put huge pressure on the Reds in the final stages of the game, showing the resilience and strength of this "Old Gold" team.  

 

Now, Vitor Pereira will once again lead his team to challenge one of the league leaders away from home. He does not intend to be too respectful to his opponent, but hopes that Wolves can show the dignity and performance they deserve in the game.  

 

Vitor Pereira said: "Our goal is clear, that is to get all three points. We have to respect ourselves and know what kind of team we want to be. Looking back at our performance at Anfield, it is a good reference."  

 

"We played too restrained in the first half, but in the second half we showed our true ability. I liked the Wolves team in the second half more, with ambition, order and blood."  

 

"Tactically, we know how to deal with the challenges ahead and looking back at our games, we know what to do. We are about to face a very strong team but now is the time to be competitive in training and have fun in training."  

 

“We are always working hard to develop a unique style of play. Although each opponent has different characteristics, we always focus on our own way of playing. In different stages of the game, we know how to adjust the formation, how to organize the defense, how to apply pressure and how to control the ball. At the same time, we are also looking for spaces that can be exploited and key areas that we must control through video analysis.”  

 

"It's a very special league for me and I think it's the top league in the world. We are always happy when we play at home, especially with the fans, but it's also a treat to watch the games on the pitch on television in the country where I used to work."  

 

“It’s always been a goal of mine to be able to play in such an exciting and competitive environment, and it’s very special to me.”  

 

Vitor Pereira also said: "We need to re-examine our performance in every game, because in the Premier League, we will encounter different tactics and game rhythms against different teams. We must use our own way to understand how to face different opponents, think about where their space is, their running patterns and their offensive intentions."  

 

“Also, we have to look at ourselves, look at our efforts over the past four months, keep a positive spirit and mentality and stick to our identity as a team.”  

 

“I believe we have what it takes to compete with any opponent and create scoring chances. Of course, we also need to strengthen our defense and make sure we stay consistent in the game. As a team, we have to have a clear mind and know the current situation and how to deal with it next. I have been working hard to prepare them and I am very confident that we are well prepared for the challenges ahead.”
