00:00 You need to understand, the people need to understand, but the players need to understand.

00:05 That is not a charity thing that we are going to play for shock and play football.

00:11 No, no, we need to win, we must win.

00:14 That is why sometimes we feel so disappointed, the professionals, because sometimes the players,

00:19 difficult to understand the environment of the players also, they say, oh, disappointed

00:24 because they didn't play again, and Kunku in that case again, Sheffield United.

00:28 Maybe I'm disappointed to have a player that should be an important player for us,

00:33 he's not helping the team.

00:35 I'm disappointed if he didn't play, it's not because we don't believe in him, or in that case,

00:42 Lavia, it's because there are too many other players that are fit and are training during six months,

00:48 and maybe in that moment that we need to decide to make an impact or to be on the pitch,

00:54 and the impact is that they are more ready than these guys. Maybe I'm talking too much.

00:58 No, it's true. But come on, it's annoying me sometimes.

01:04 No, annoying me, but not you.

01:07 People around the player, the player, complain, oh, I want you to play, I'm disappointed.

01:13 Come on, I am disappointed. The club is disappointed that it's investing big to perform and to score goals,

01:23 when you are not scoring goals, but OK, we pay the salary every month if you don't play,

01:27 if you are injured, or when you don't perform. Yes, come on.

01:31 Who suffers for us, for the coaches? Who suffers for the club?

01:35 Who suffers? No, it's always, no? Come on.

01:37 These two get the right balance in all this business, it's so important.

01:42 OK, we'll leave it there. Thank you.

01:44 Cameras off, please. Thank you.

01:47 Oh, I thought that was the camera off already.

01:51 I'm afraid not.

01:53 We can delete? We can delete?

01:55 Yeah, we can delete all that.
