The Spaniard after the fourth place achieved. “I had to make a lot of decisions. The president gave me the keys and I made many choices. It’s like going to university every day. I’m happy with what we achieved”
Cesc Fabregas is happy. He arrives in the mixed zone euphoric, wet after the party in the locker room. The 32-tooth smile tells of the path taken and the goal achieved. By winning in Cremona he reached the Champions League with his Como team. “Before the match against Parma I told the boys that with two victories we would be in the Champions League. I showed the team a video of a cyclist who comes back from sixth and overtakes his opponents. The objective was to take example from him and we succeeded.”

And after the victory against Cremonese the goal is reality. “It’s a huge achievement, achieved with young guys. Lots of Under 23s. I had to make a lot of decisions. The president gave me the keys and I made a lot of choices. When I arrived four years ago as a player we changed in a bar, today we’re in the Champions League. Today I spoke with two physiotherapists, we trained without a sports centre, in a place I don’t remember where it was. We had the massage inside a bar, on a pitch. Everyone left at 12-12.30, not there was no one. And today we are fourth in Serie A. It’s like going to university every day. I’m happy with what we’ve achieved.”

Then, finally, a joke about Nico Paz and the Spaniard’s future. “I see him better in Mou’s hands, because José won everything. But I hope he stays with us. For me he’s like a son. We’ll see what happens.”
