00:00You made 11 changes in the Carabao Cup. Is it true to say that you were willing to sacrifice the Carabao Cup to win at Old Trafford?
00:09No, absolutely. We prepared the game to win in the last game against Newcastle, Carabao.
00:15Unfortunately we lost, but we prepare every game to try to win.
00:19And the reason why we make changes, I said many times, is not because there is A team or B team.
00:26We are all one team. The only reason is because they all deserve to play.
00:31Some of them, they are playing in the Premier League game, some of them in the Conference or Carabao.
00:35But in one game, in two games, they can change.
00:38The ones that they are playing in Carabao, in Conference, they can play in the Premier League game and in the other side.
00:44So I said already two, three times that for me, we have 24, 25 outfield players and there is only one team,
00:52only one squad and what we try to do is to share minutes with all of them.
