What are the needs, the demands for the goalkeeper at this moment in the game? It's always about what the game asks from the goalkeeper. All the clubs where I worked I made a profile out of the information I got out of the games, a profile of the ideal goalkeeper for that club, and when you have that profile - that's the base, that's the vision, that's the philosophy - you have to find a way... How can I work with this goalkeeper to the profile that is needed for this club.
