The teen told the club's website: "He is a coach who comes to talk to you, who explains why things happen; the advice he gives us makes us better.
"He transmits a lot of confidence and knows what to say at every moment. This is very important.
"He knows how to say everything at the right time. He always tells me that I am very important for the team; that I should believe it.
"Our way of playing is more fun for the fans to watch. We attack directly. When I get the ball on the wing, that's when I'm 100% myself, because I have no rules and freedom of movement. Maybe defensively we're not as good as in other years, but when it comes to attack, it's one of the best years."
