Spelarintervju, Lucho

Jag pratade lite med Lucho efter träningen och beslutade mig för att fråga om det var okej att ställa ett antal frågor via mail. "No problemas", svarade han. Sagt och gjort, här är intervjuen (jag vågade till och med inleda och avsluta mailet på spanska. För er som kan språket, varsågoda att skratta).

Hola Lucho!!

Que tal? Tengo unas preguntas para ti in inglese. Baggio puede quizas ayudarte con el ingles...

How does it feel to be back in Sweden?

I feel great, it's a country that I love, it's very cold here too, but I like it. I was six months in 2010 and I always thought one day return here, and Hammarby gives me the opportunity to be back in Sweden.

You have some team mates and a trainer who speak spanish. Is it important, and how does it help you, both on the pitch and outside it?

It is very good for me to have many people who speak Spanish, it helps me a lot in the communication field. I'm trying to study some English to be able to have communication with the entire team. Off the field, so far I have not had the opportunity to share anything with my teammates. That is bacause I recently arrived.

What are the main reasons you came to Hammarby?

My contract was over in Kazachstan and was looking for a club to continue my career. ”Thank you very much for calling me Carlos Banda and giving me the opportunity to come back here. Carlos told me when I was in Hammarby, that is a very big club in Sweden and I had little doubt to come here. I hope to give the best of me and that the club continues to grow.

How close are you to feel 100%?

I already feel 100%, but I have to wait for my chance to play, there are good players in the team, so I'm training hard now, so that I am prepared when the coaches give me the opportunity. Meanwhile I am supporting my fellow to make good results.

What are your strengths as a player?

I love to attack, I like to think with the ball, but football today is very fast, think fast, passing and movement.

I'm working with my coaches to improve on my defence, because in Kazachstan I was playing as a left winger and i didn´t have to play so much defence. I need to go back to work some defending moves. 

What do you think about your performance in the game versus Falkenberg?

I felt good. The first half, I felt a little lost out there, but during the second half, was better, I had two chances to go on the attack which I think was good for the team. However, as I wrote, I have to work more with my defence, I hope to improve that part of my game. I am happy to see how well the whole team played, and that the team was able to win 3 points. That is exactly what we needed right now. I hope that the this week has helped us to correct some errors that we make on the field. 

Muchas gracias, y bien venido a Hammarby. Tu vas a mirar el interview http://bfskondal.blogspot.com
