“Definitely, we need to be patient, we need to be patient,” he says. “I know that I will be back soon, very soon. It takes time, we need to be patient.”
A MENTAL AND PHYSICAL CHALLENGE
Licha admits it has been difficult to watch United matches from the sidelines and particularly when results have not gone our way. But he has been making the most of his time and doing all he can to help his team-mates, including those who are also working their way back from injury.JAMB Portal

“It is part of football also and we need to accept it, be humble. It is a time to work even harder, in the gym, improving, doing analysis, doing tactics, in the things that we can improve on the pitch.
“As a person as well, I love to improve that part because, for everybody, if you improve then automatically you will see it on the pitch.
“I love this club and I love this place. I feel so grateful to be here every day and I love to spend time with physios, the kit men, with my team-mates, with everybody.

“I also like to talk with everybody, to listen, to improve. Because I think you can bring a lot of things from everybody.
“It doesn’t mean that you have to be only a footballer. That is really good and also I spent time with my family in Argentina. It was really important for me to get that love from my family. I love my family as well, so it was really important for me.”
