Harry knows the way to improve his ability . He is in a very good moment to keep working hard and develop his game . 'You need to wait for the right moment to give a player the responsibility because sometimes we can see a player is ready , but not quite complete to assume the responsibility and keep the same level . 'Big players always have a good first season - like ( Wayne ) Rooney , after his first season a lot of people maybe had doubts about the next one , but this is football . 'It is not easy when the player goes down , this is our challenge , but not only with Harry , with all players .
