00:10 >> Okay, who wants to start?
00:12 [BLANK_AUDIO]
00:17 >> Hi, Eric.
00:19 It felt like you probably did enough to win the game twice, but
00:22 your goalkeeper has made two quite big errors again.
00:25 How did you see the game in general?
00:27 [BLANK_AUDIO]
00:37 >> I think the progress in this team, I take many positives of this game.
00:44 Some states we play like I want my team to play.
00:49 It was enjoyable to watch them, so proactive, dynamic and brave, and
00:53 we scored great goals.
00:55 And even after we had some setbacks, we kept going until the end,
00:59 because in the end, we should have won as well with the big chances from
01:02 Scott McTominay and Pellistri.
01:04 So yeah, of course I'm disappointed because we should have managed the game
01:09 better.
01:10 We will learn from that, but you see this team is in development.
01:14 >> I know you probably don't want to talk about individuals, but
01:18 just on Andre, he has made two quite big mistakes again.
01:22 Have you spoken to him after the game?
01:24 Is he okay?
01:25 >> Yes, he's okay.
01:26 But as I say, it's not about an individual.
01:30 And of course, individual in football, some individual errors will make
01:35 difference and we have to take responsibility for it.
01:38 But it's always about team, and this team is good.
01:42 All the players in this squad are good and deserve the best to play for
01:46 Man United because they are brilliant players and that counts for the whole squad.
01:52 >> Eric, you spoke about- >> [INAUDIBLE]
01:57 >> [FOREIGN]
02:07 >> [FOREIGN]
02:17 >> [FOREIGN]
02:27 >> [FOREIGN]
02:37 >> Eric, you spoke about game management and
02:43 we've seen now the changes that have been made in the last few weeks.
02:51 What do you think about the changes that have been made in the last few weeks?
02:57 >> [FOREIGN]
03:05 >> [FOREIGN]
03:15 >> [FOREIGN]
03:25 >> [FOREIGN]
03:35 >> [FOREIGN]
03:45 >> [FOREIGN]
03:55 >> [FOREIGN]
04:05 >> [FOREIGN]
04:15 >> [FOREIGN]
04:25 >> [FOREIGN]
04:35 >> [FOREIGN]
04:45 >> [FOREIGN]
04:55 >> [FOREIGN]
05:05 >> [FOREIGN]
05:15 >> [FOREIGN]
05:25 >> Eric, after I think it was the second goal,
05:35 Andre was celebrating quite wildly in front of the United supporters.
05:39 Does that suggest that he needs to maybe be a bit more focused when the game's not
05:44 won and it's still quite early in the game?
05:46 >> It's difficult if you to make that connection and
05:56 to see that as a cause for whatever if you relate that to misfocus.
06:04 But I don't think so.
06:05 I see the civilians of Hockey and that first free kick and
06:10 he scored so many goals against the best goalkeepers in the world in this way.
06:16 >> And just it's felt like this month against Copenhagen, Everton and
06:20 today that the team are playing more the way you want them to play.
06:24 They are scoring really laudable goals.
06:26 Does that make it more frustrating that particularly in Europe,
06:29 you're not getting the results that maybe merit the way you're playing?
06:34 >> It would be more frustrating if you play poor.
06:37 But the performance is very good and it's enjoyable to watch how we dictate in game,
06:44 how we creating the chances.
06:46 That is actually fantastic.
06:49 But now we have and it's more you can sort better at the management of the game out.
06:55 Then you start playing football.
06:58 And so yeah, the football is good.
07:01 The performance is good.
07:02 But now we have to learn better how we manage this game.
07:07 >> [FOREIGN]
07:17 >> [FOREIGN]
07:27 >> [FOREIGN]
07:37 >> Okay, last question.
08:01 >> [FOREIGN]
08:11 >> Okay, Unana makes some mistakes like I said.
08:26 >> And the reason why you don't choose for Altair?
08:29 Is there a reason why you don't choose for Altair?
08:34 >> We are very happy with our keeper group.
08:36 We have with Andre, with Altair, also Tom, a very good keeper group.
08:40 And as a group, they do really well.
08:43 They have good performances.
08:47 Yeah, and they have to push each other.
08:50 And so yeah, we are very pleased with the comment from Altair.
08:55 He gets used to Premier League.
08:59 He gets used to European football, which is tough when you're coming from Turkey.
09:05 But the process, we are very pleased with.
09:09 He's doing very well and you have to be patient.
09:14 But if he works well, if he keeps this progress, then he will catch his chances.
09:19 And then he has to take this.
09:23 >> [FOREIGN]
09:33 >> Okay, thank you very much.
