I watch everyone\u2019s training sessions. And unfortunately, I can\u2019t give starting roles to everyone because there are only eleven places on the pitch. Moreover, several players have done a very good job in recent weeks like Myron (Boadu) for example,&#8221; he insisted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Kevin (Volland) has also returned from injury, so there is competition in all positions on the pitch. The energy in the team is very good and everyone must show that they are ready. I am seeing this state of mind more, it must be our strength in the coming weeks. I have more and more attacking options, which makes it more difficult for me to choose eleven or twenty players. I hope this will be the case until the end of the season.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His classy body of work will hopefully now be a turning point for the dynamic attacker to recapture a level resembling his best and to restore his confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Showing his manager he has what it takes to deserve more starts and that he can be trusted to do his job for the team, it&#8217;ll be intriguing seeing if he can use this as a springboard to breathe life into his Monaco career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Possessing so many of the desired traits needed in a modern attacker, the challenge for the tireless and technical Minamino, who does so much on both sides of the ball, will be finding that all-important consistency in his quest to become a bonafide starter for Les Monegasques.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While it hasn&#8217;t all been plain sailing for Takumi Minamino since joining AS Monaco in the summer from Liverpool, as
