I've spoken to many of his teammates, I've spoken to many staff members, and they all rate him so high and all say how nice of a person he was.

"Second of all, I think our fans can be so proud about the players we have at this club.

"They've seen them winning the league, that was a great achievement, but what they did in the last week with the togetherness they had, how they conducted themselves when we were in Portugal together, the fans couldn't have asked for more from our players when it comes to how great human beings they are.

"Those are the two emotions.

But it's the both of them."

Slot emphasised the need for his players feel what it is like to play football again as the players and staff continue to process their grief.

"Nothing seems to be important if we think of what has happened.

But we are a football club and we need to train and we need to play again, if we want it or not," Slot said.

"What I've said to the players, I can say it here as well.

Can we be angry if there's a wrong decision?

"And I've said to them, 'maybe the best thing for us to do is handle this situation like Jota was.' And what I meant with that is that Jota was always himself, it didn't matter if he was talking to me, to his teammates, to the staff, he was always himself.

But be yourself, don't think you have to be different than your emotions tell you."

"Second of all, Jots was the player that if things were really, really, really difficult, I always looked at him and said, 'Now we need something special from you.' And he delivered so many times in those moments.
