00:00 This week, you form a club, Evelin, given a 10-point deduction.
00:04 Biggest punishment we've seen this year in the Premier League.
00:07 Just get your reaction to that news.
00:10 I feel very connected to the club.
00:13 Very difficult moment.
00:15 Osle puts the club in a difficult position,
00:19 but they've been in many difficult positions.
00:21 They always find a way to get out.
00:23 And if there is a quality that I think
00:28 describes that club, it's the correct determination and the fight.
00:33 And they would fight against anything.
00:34 And I wish them the best.
00:36 We've not seen anything like this in terms of punishments for financial reasons before.
00:42 Were you surprised by the scale of it?
00:43 And do you think this could maybe be a watershed moment in terms of the Premier League?
00:48 I don't know, obviously.
00:49 The news took me by surprise.
00:51 And it's a big one in the middle of the season.
00:54 But I don't know the regulation.
00:57 I don't know the whole story inside it
00:58 and difficult for me to comment.
