Ruben Amorim was in clarification mood at Wednesday's news conference.
He clarified his remarks on Sunday and dismissed any suggestion they should be interpreted as a hint he is ready to quit.
He also clarified why he felt the need to step in - along with the players - to ensure the families of his staff could get to Bilbao for next week's Europa League final.
But he also inserted a true-ism.
He played in a Europa League final for Benfica in 2014.
He lost on penalties to Sevilla. He knows the experience is not one he wants to go through again.
"I will never say I was a finalist," he said. "It doesn't change anything. The feeling has to be, what a waste of time.
"My message to the players - we have to win it or it doesn't matter."
Win or bust.
