Hide AdEspirito Santo is expecting a hugely difficult challenge in the Premier League this season, after a gruelling campaign last time out which also took them to the quarter-final of the Europa League.
“Not only against Sheffield, it’s going to be difficult against everybody,” he said. “We start with Sheffield on Monday and they are a fantastic team.
“Chris, his staff and his players are amazing, and I truly admire them, as a club and as people. Monday is going to be tough, but I expect a very good game.
“It’s going to be a new game. We’ve faced Sheffield several times in the Championship and the Premier League and all the games were always very competitive, very hard and very difficult for us.
