Hernán Crespo, the Argentine manager of Al-Ain, said that his squad’s match vs Al-Wahda in the round of 16 of His Highness the President’s “may God bless him” cup, which Al-Ain plays through during exceptional circumstances, and we are well aware of the importance of this most distinguished competition and derby match in the same time, so we are required to do our best to show a strong and exceptional performance, leading us to win the qualifying card.

He went on: My list for the next match will contain the most prepared players, who have high skills and the required physical fitness in the framework of rotation policy, which is adopted by big teams in line with managers and big players way of thinking, and if we think like we are going to play with 11 players team, then this will be considered an underestimation of the squad as all, so we need to respect the choices on which our team relies by showing trust in all team members, and I lived these circumstances in my life as a player myself.

He added: We need to understand the current situation of players before we judge anything and this is most important thing, disregarding the amount of time available for him to play 5, 1, or 90 minutes, because before anything else comes the squad, while the squad needs to go very far in many competitions, as far as they can, and we always have to respect all competitions in which we participate.

Crespo said that we are at Al-Ain Club a one family, so when we are alone it is impossible to achieve success, and it is also impossible to achieve this without trusting each other as a team consisting of players, a coach, and fans, while this means that we are in a dire need to help each other.

He went on: our goal is clear, which is to reach that important moment, while we need, by the end of the season, to build the team from this moment, starting with this type of current situations, and in important moments when there are many matches to play, we will need the support of our fans.
