After the customary interview with the club\u2019s official channels, Roma midfielder Neil El Aynaoui spoke to the French media, sharing his feelings about his new environment, Gasperini\u2019s working methods, and his integration process.<\/p>\n
In an interview with Capte\u2019, El Aynaoui said, \u201cI\u2019m happy to have arrived at a big club like Roma. There are so many changes: life, a different climate, a different and bigger city. Let\u2019s say I\u2019m now in a phase of discovering this new life.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe temperatures have been high all week, and making the first efforts like this is quite difficult. And then the training sessions are very intense. It\u2019s not a myth: you run a lot. It was complicated, but that\u2019s what you need, so it\u2019s good.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGasperini? He commands respect. He has a kind of aura, something emanates when he speaks. He\u2019s different from all the coaches I\u2019ve had so far. He doesn\u2019t speak much English, so I have to learn Italian quickly. But I\u2019m happy and eager to learn more about his philosophy.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThere aren\u2019t many French speakers in the locker room, so if I want to chat, I have to learn quickly. For now, I talk a lot with French speakers, and I\u2019m lucky enough to speak Spanish, so that helps me with the Spanish and South American players in the squad. Speaking more languages helps. Then, little by little, I\u2019m starting to get to know everyone, even the staff. I think it will get better and better with time.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe intensity they put into every session, the professionalism. And here you can see that it\u2019s even higher level. So I\u2019d say that what struck me in Lens, I find here too, but at a higher level.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After the customary interview with the club\u2019s official channels, Roma midfielder Neil El Aynaoui spoke to the French…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":48889,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[403,99],"class_list":["post-48888","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48888","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48888"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48888\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48889"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48888"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48888"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48888"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
