I & egrave; It was offered to enter the national team. Then I asked if I could play a personalized plan followed by my coach. I & egrave; It was said no and therefore prefer to train independently because & eacute ;, given the results dell''inverno, my program has paid off and I see no reason to change it. "
Andersson instead said: "The line of Wolfgang & egrave; clear, but for me & egrave; pi & ugrave; important to be quiet and have an inner balance. Things impossible to find if you are stressed all the time.
