00:00 No European football might be disappointing for Chelsea fans, but for you, has this week
00:06 felt a bit like a blessing in disguise having a full week with your squad?
00:10 Yes, because I think for us it's about recovering players from the injuries and players that
00:18 were out in the international break. For us, the circumstance I think is good to have time
00:25 to work. I think it was a very good week. We worked really, really hard with the players
00:31 that we have and then time to recover players. If you are involved in competition like in
00:35 European competition, it's difficult. And of course, it's a time that for the fans of
00:40 course is difficult because normally Chelsea is a club that is involved in the European
00:47 competition, but at the moment because of the circumstance we are not. And I think we
00:52 need to take advantage of the situation.
