He has to decide what to do, how to resolve this issue, but right now he is training with great professionalism. We'll see."If he plays, it's because I see him in good shape and relaxed.  "I agree that after the missed penalty and red card against Juventus, something happened in his head."We'll see tomorrow. As I said, it's not easy for a coach to change the idea of a player, so I have to concentrate on putting out the best line-up for the situation and getting the best out of every player. "I want to reiterate that Higuain has never told me he wants to leave. I am waiting for that."I am not upset. I too was a player for many years, I realise there are moments when we all see things differently and cannot judge how someone else thinks. "If the glass is half-full or half-empty, it remains the same glass. We'll see what happens. I want to see this Supercoppa, I hope it is a great game for us, but I won't be upset or let down if he goes."</blockquote>
