00:00 Hi
00:02 Yeah a great night a
00:04 Really difficult place to comment the way we started the game obviously made a difference. We were really
00:10 Aggressive really positive and we show real quality
00:13 Especially in the final said to take the game
00:17 Into a position where it was in big favor for us and and then we maintain we maintain the rhythm and in the hangar
00:24 And I love that about it about the team was Bacayo substitution just tactical
00:29 Now he was feeling a bit sick and and as well we have Fabio that we need to give him minutes as well
00:35 It was a great opportunity, and then we have a little issue with Gabby Martinelli as well
00:39 He had a slight cut in in his foot, and we have to wait and see how he's and you could just ask you about
00:44 The goal difference that's now it's 10 ahead of city. I think six ahead of Liverpool
00:48 Given what looks like a very tight tight title race how important could that be?
00:54 Yeah, we don't know obviously the fact that we're scoring that many goals, and I'm not considering is a great sign
00:59 But he's about winning every game now
01:02 And that's the demise that those two clubs have put over the the last six or seven years and that's the task
01:07 Okay when you were planning this in the summer
01:11 Is this what you were building up to hoping that after a few months things would click and you were you hit momentum at the right
01:17 time there
01:19 Yes for sure and obviously picking the right players that could bring
01:22 something that we didn't have to the squad and and they're certainly doing that and
01:28 and improving every single player and
01:31 And the mechanisms and and the culture and the team and they are doing that
01:36 But it's still the most important part of the season ahead and I will know that that's the case
01:41 I just looked at the stats and William had more than 170 passes
01:44 I think it was more than the whole Sheffield United team combined
01:47 I mean that level of dominance it seems hard even to imagine a team having that how you able to consistently do that
01:53 we're trying to
01:55 improve in every phase of play and
01:57 understanding the chemistry of the players and then the desire that they have to
02:01 to constantly be better and
02:04 Improve in every area and if you do that there are moments that you can be as dominant, but it's not easy for sure
02:10 Mikhail
02:13 The FA Cup week coming up when when you're off would
02:17 Is that important for for resting players?
02:20 Firstly and would you would you go away again as a squad the last the last break obviously being
02:26 extremely
02:29 Well, they have international games the majority of the squad so they will be flying to different places
02:37 They would have two games. So I don't think we had the opportunity to be together
02:41 I
02:43 Miguel even at 3-0
02:47 Declan and Gabby seem to be pumping up the team trying to get them to go for four and five and six as it was
02:52 How important is that attitudes if you're gonna catch Man City in Liverpool for this Premier League title race?
02:57 Yes again that obviously was very early in the game
03:00 So, you know, this is the Premier League, you know
03:02 the level of the opponent and and you cannot be satisfied and
03:05 And that when it comes internally from them and that level of demands is what I see every day in training and they pushing each
03:12 other and they're trying to make
03:14 each other better and
03:16 And that chemistry is really important if we want to to have the chance to achieve what we want
03:21 Do you send them out with that message saying, you know, let's get as many as we can here
03:23 Is that just from them organically?
03:25 Well, obviously they know and then the way we train they know that what they want to do
03:30 but then you have to manage the game you have to see as well how the point is looking and
03:35 And today I think they do
03:37 Hi Miguel Thomas Potter is coming back. So how do you choose between him to GD and decline rise in the following matches?
03:46 Well today obviously Thomas is available now to play certain amount of minutes and he needs to build that it was his first minute after
03:53 Four months, which is a long long time and then like everybody you need to in the right to play the minutes
04:01 Hi Miguel an unchanged side today is a continuity key for your success in this title race
04:08 well, we we believe that today was the best option at least to start the game and
04:13 We had a long long period after Newcastle's. It was nine days
04:19 So we had the timing and I was going to be very different in the next two days
04:22 Three days. Sorry, we have another game and then portal so we have to manage the minutes of everybody
04:28 Very finally because I missed you. Hi. Don't me. Yes. Yes
04:34 Yeah
04:40 Well, he's very close. He's already doing something on the grass and hopefully we're gonna have him with us really really close
04:47 Yeah
04:49 Thank you. Thank you
