Saliba: Now is the time to stay together | Interview | News

William Saliba has appealed to his team-mates to stick together as they head into a big week full of big games both at home and in Europe.

Our 1-0 defeat against Newcastle United led to our second defeat in the league, but our French defender believes it is time to pull together and move forward as one to get back to winning ways.

He was part of the backline that put in a solid effort against the Magpies who had a great chance in the game and so he feels it’s time to feel sorry for ourselves with big games against Inter Milan and Chelsea. horizon.

Speaking after the match, he said: “We are a little sad because we wanted to win here today.” “Unfortunately we couldn’t do that because I don’t think we played our best game. But we have to stay together and be ready for next week.

Maybe we deserved a point, but I don’t think we deserved to win today. They had one chance and they scored. We were on top trying to achieve parity, but I think we need to do better. The game is over and we need to focus on what comes next.

“There aren’t many positive things when you lose, but that’s okay, we don’t need to be so upset.”

We look to continue our strong start in the competition as Wednesday sees us head to the San Siro for a big Champions League meeting with Inter.

This is a match that will be a huge event in an iconic setting and Willo can’t wait for it; He hopes this will be a springboard to another positive display when we face Chelsea in the London derby next Sunday.

“We have two big games next week that we will come back with a win for,” he added. “I think we can do it if we give it our all.

“(Inter) is a big game, if we win we get our confidence back and we have to do it. We all want to play big games like this.”
