Q. After the win against Pune, how is the mood of the team?
A. Zico- It is the same mood as it was in the beginning of competition. We are playing with seriousness, working hard and aiming to win.
Q. In the last few matches you scored 7 points but in the first few matches you scored only 5 points. How did the transformation happen?
Q. Zico- It is part of football. As we continue playing, we have become more solid and we corrected the mistakes that we did. But in the first round we were not playing badly. We created a lot of opportunities, but we didn’t score. Now also we are creating opportunities and we are scoring.
Q. Is tomorrow’s game a must-win for you?
A. Zico- I think every game is a must win game. In football you don’t have to be reckless or be in a hurry. We will be playing against a team who has been playing really well since the beginning of the league. We know the difficulties that we are going to face and we have 90 minutes to sort our situation.
Q. How do you rate the performance of the Indian players in ISL?
A. Zico- I cannot rate any players.
Q. Kerala and Goa have been in good form in the last couple of matches. What are your thoughts on game tomorrow?
A. Zico- I want my team to come on to the ground with the same disposition, with the same desire to win which they showed in the last game. We lost the last game against Kerala because of one rehearsed play but we have to be focused and hope no Goan player scores against us.
Q How difficult was the decision to keep out Robert Pires in the last game?
A. Zico- In every game, we have coach options. We always try to put the best on the field in each game. I have 27 players who are ready to play and I have to keep my options for each game.
Q. Has Youness recovered from the injury?
A. Zico- I am not going to reveal anything about the game tomorrow.
Q. There are rumours that you might become the Indian coach.
A. Zico- As you said, they are rumours.
Q. Since you are yet to score in ISL, what are the difficulties that you face?
A. Miguel- I have been training well. I am ready and when I get the chance I will score. When I come on the field I do my best and do my job. Every striker wants to score. So do I.
Q. Kerala has had the best defense so far. How difficult will it be to play against them?
A. Miguel- I think my team is in a very good position and we are performing well. We are going to perform tomorrow as well.
