00:00The two players having a big impact for you at the moment at very different stages of their career,
00:04Ryan Gattenberg is 22, what do you make of the progress that he's made this season?
00:08And then also we've seen Mo Salah and the numbers that he's producing once again,
00:13what enables him to keep producing those kind of numbers at the age,
00:16or what do you see in him at the age of 32?
00:19I think why players play well has, first of all, to do with the quality they have as players.
00:26Mo has a lot of quality, Ryan has a lot of quality,
00:29actually every player that plays here has a lot of quality.
00:32Now it's up to us, and I say us because not only me, my staff, it's also the players,
00:38to play in the best possible way as a team, and then individuals will do special things.
00:43So it was an unbelievable finish from Mo, but the only reason he got the chance to finish
00:50was because Trent Alexander-Arnold made an overlapping run,
00:53and that's why it opened up on the inside.
00:55If you give that space to Mo, then he can score a special goal.
01:01So, again, that's about his quality, it's about Ryan's quality,
01:04but the amount of time Virgil or Ibu plays balls through to Ryan,
01:09where Ryan can turn and then he can play his balls towards all the good attackers we have,
01:14that makes it, in my opinion, a team performance which is really well,
01:19and then as a result of that you see individuals playing good as well.
