00:00You've said a few times this season that the fixture list up to this point
00:03has been kind to you, so how do you view the next week with Chelsea to come,
00:07then Leipzig, then Arsenal, and what could maybe this week tell you
00:10about the ability of your squad to challenge for the biggest honours this season?
00:14If you judge a team only on a week, that would not be fair,
00:17so I think we have to judge us as a team after this spell of games,
00:25not three of them but six, seven or eight of them,
00:28then we know better how we act and how we perform
00:33if we play tough Champions League games and tough league games.
00:36That is normal in everybody's season and we know how difficult it is.
00:42We've seen that ourselves two years ago when we played Champions League,
00:46we've seen this last season with Manchester United,
00:49and the only ones who showed that they can perform Champions League
00:54and in the league are City and Arsenal in the last two seasons.
00:58So now it's up to us, but I don't think it's fair to judge us after a week,
01:02even though if we do really well it wouldn't be fair,
01:05but the best way to judge us is in four weeks.
