00:26 "Is it an opportunity for a player like Kieran Tierney to have an opportunity in the first
00:34 team?"
00:35 "It's an opportunity for everybody. We're going to need everybody and everybody is going
00:39 to be important. The numbers that we have in the squad, especially in those positions,
00:44 are more limited now. Everybody has to be ready."
00:47 "What is the situation with Kieran? He was left out of the squad against Nottingham Forest.
00:58 Is he still part of your plans?"

01:00 of the plans for sure."
01:02 "Was he disappointed to be left out of the first Premier League?"
01:04 "I hope so, yes."
