00:00Opponents can play the way they want to do it. It belongs to us to handle them and break
00:08them in the way we have to do. With Mikel, because after the time we text each other
00:13and the relation don't change absolutely anything, they decide to play in that way. It's more
00:18than perfect. I never justify. It's fine. I was not able to do it. They were brilliant.
00:23It's about us, how we can break them. And we did it really well in many things. So always
00:29it happens. We are not here to say to the team, oh you're going to play the way we want
00:34to play. Absolutely not. We play in that way. Lately we play a lot of teams defensively.
00:38Inter was so deep. Arsenal so deep. For the reason 10 against 11. I admire them what they
00:44have done. I cannot do it. I'm not able to do it with my team. Defend, fight central,
00:48defend away. Defend every single ball. Block every single ball. What I'm saying is to Mikel,
00:54you did it amazingly. So it's not a problem.
