The Spaniard was happy with the display of new signing Deshorn Brown.

Indian Super League champions Bengaluru FC picked up their 7th win of the campaign after they beat Josep Gombau’s Odisha FC side by a 3-0 scoreline. The Blues controlled the tempo of the game right from kickoff, giving head coach Carles Cuadrat multiple reasons to be happy with the result. After the match, the Spaniard addressed the media.

About Suresh Wangjam’s Inclusion

“Well, he is a very talented player, we know him very well. You know Xisco has a good connection with Aridane and they have been scoring a lot of goals for Odisha, so we used Suresh to man-mark Xisco. He has been patient, and when introducing young players you have to be careful and wait for the right moment," said Carles Cuadrat. [KH_ADWORDS type="4" align="center"][/KH_ADWORDS] "I think he was good with the ball, calm and he was doing a lot of work in defence as well, so very happy with his performance," he added.

About The Set-Pieces

“I told you that transition and set-pieces could be the key to this game and it worked for us. Football is like this sometimes, they came into the game with lots of possession and were confident. But once we had the first set-piece, we got the opening goal and after that it was a different game." "Football is a game of little margin and this week we are happy that we scored first because it puts you in a different position," the Spaniard went on.

About Erik Paartalu’s Performance

Speaking about Erik Paartalu's performance, Carles Cuadrat said, "Erik has been very good and he’s playing a great season. He’s helping us win games and continues to be a natural player during set-piece situations. Today he played one of his best games of the season.”

About Deshorn Brown’s First Start

“I think that he understands the way we play, we want to play very fast and he is a very clever player. He has a picture with Lionel Messi so he has to be clever. He is helping us a lot, and although he’s not physically ready to play a lot of minutes, I think that he is going to improve on that aspect in the coming weeks and he has been a good signing for us.” [KH_RELATED_NEWS title="Related News | Article Continues Below"][/KH_RELATED_NEWS]

About Udanta Singh’s Display

“I just start with him now and I said to him that this is what the team needs from you and he had a very good game. He worked hard in defence and he helped in tracking back as well. In the attack, I asked him to go straight into the action, try to take players on and put in good crosses. And he was really unlucky with the header in the second half, as it was a wonderful cross from Ashique Kuruniyan. So yes, very happy with the job that he did today.”

About Potential Squad Rotation

“When we arrive there, we will think about that as things can change very quickly in football. I was preparing Eugeneson Lyngdoh and Rino Anto for that kind of game, but because of their injuries, they might not be ready, so let’s see.”
