00:00 How do you think they performed?
00:10 I don't know, I look at my players, our squad in different ways. I enjoy having them fit.
00:16 If we want to utilise the squad and maximise what we have, they have to play.
00:22 I think it was the right moment to do that and they responded really well. I'm so happy with that because I think we have won a few players with good confidence, physically with the rhythm right now.
00:34 They're going to be really important for us.
00:36 They have the moment, they have to take it and they certainly did today. They gave me every reason every day, regardless of the results.
00:44 It's not the right decision or the wrong because of the result. If we had lost the game, it would have been because we made the changes. It's not as simple as that.
00:52 At the end you have to do what is right and what they deserve. I was confident and they responded.
00:58 Winning or not winning is a different story in football.
