00:00Good evening coach, Giovanni Castelli, the team's channel.
00:19New defeat for Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.
00:23Already, what is your feeling on this defeat?
00:26A new defeat. What is your feeling on this defeat?
00:40It was a miracle that you have chosen very strong things, both as goalkeeper and as goalkeeper.
00:46Good evening. My impression of the game is that in the first half we have been very far.
00:58We have not been able to overcome the pressure at any time.
01:03We have not been able to recover the ball in the opposite field and I think we have been very inferior.
01:21The beginning of the second half is a hopeful beginning.
01:29I think that the first 10-15 minutes gave the impression that we could generate more danger.
01:37But after the expulsion, a serious mistake of ours, we have lost a player and play with 10 against this team.
01:48The last half has been positive because we have been able to be in the game until the end.
01:56But the rival, Bayern, has deserved the victory, without a doubt.
02:08All the decisions that I have taken are my responsibility, without a doubt. I accept it with total tranquility.
02:23Good evening. My impression of the game is that in the first half we have been very far.

03:00The last half has been positive because we have been able to be in the game until the end.
03:05But the rival, Bayern, has deserved the victory, without a doubt.
03:09All the decisions that I have taken are my responsibility, without a doubt. I accept it with total tranquility.
03:14I will insist a little on the story of the goalkeeper. You also have a third goalkeeper, Arnaud Tenass.
03:23In your opinion, can he also enter the dance, knowing that neither Donnarumma nor Safonov have been perfect in the Champions League for the moment
03:31and that now it will be necessary to tighten the game in the cages?
03:35My goal with all the players on the squad is to have all the players ready.
03:42Today we knew about the pressure of the rival and I decided to play Safonov to try to overcome those pressures and to try to generate that first superiority.
03:56From here, all these games are defeats that obviously bother me, but they give me a lot of information about which players can be in the future here.
04:09If there is a future and from there, necessary information, interesting, of all the players without exception, to see where we are going.

05:03Hello, Niko Linner for the Bild newspaper.
05:11You seemed very excited before and after the goal.
05:18You seemed angry. I would be interested in what made you so angry in both moments and how you saw the performance of the referees in general.
05:34I was at a low volume.
05:38You seemed very excited before and after the goal. I would be interested in what made you so angry in both moments and how you saw the performance of the referees in general.
05:46I have nothing to say about the referee, as I have not said anything about the referee throughout my career as a coach.
05:53I have nothing to say about the referee, as I have not said anything about the referee throughout my career as a coach.
06:06I have nothing to say about the referee, as I have not said anything about the referee throughout my career as a coach.
06:16More than anger, I would rather talk about frustration, since I have never seen my players capable of changing anything during the first half.
06:23Good evening, Julien Franck for Radio France.
06:29This is the third defeat in five games for Paris Saint-Germain.
06:32Do you still have confidence in qualifying for the final 16?
06:37In a previous answer, you said, if there is a future, are you talking about your future or the future of the players?
06:46Thank you very much.
06:48I am talking about the future in general.
06:55I am talking about the future in general to know that each game is important.
07:04Each game in Paris Saint-Germain, in this project that we are starting, is very important.
07:11This information is what we will need in the future to make our team stronger each year.
07:18All these things are useful to me. I am responsible for all of them.
07:24Good decisions, bad decisions, all the decisions that have to be made.
07:28But I receive a lot of information about which player is in each game, which player falls, which player gives up, which player does not give up.
07:38And with respect to the three games, we have three games left, we have to win all three.
07:43Because if we do not win all three, it is possible that we do not qualify.
07:47Something that after seeing the draw that we have had, it happens because we have lost very clear points in our home against teams that had played worse than us.
07:58But three games, for those three games.
08:08I was talking about the future in general.
08:13I have to know that each game and each thing that I see in the games serves me to know things about PSG, which is in this project that we are starting.
08:26And everything I see is very important.
08:28It gives me information for the future, but it is a future that I envisage to make us stronger over the years.
08:34So I am responsible for all these decisions.
08:36I am responsible for good decisions and bad decisions.
08:39But again, I receive a lot of information about who plays, who is present at each game, who has a level that sometimes falls, who is performing, who is not.
08:48So you were talking about three defeats, but I am talking about three games that remain to be played.
08:52And we have to win because otherwise we will not qualify.
08:56When we saw the initial draw, the problem after that is that we lost at home against teams that played less well than us.
09:04So now all I can say is that we are on the attack for the next three games.
09:10Last question.
09:14Hello again, coach.
09:16In relation to this project, it is true that we hear a lot about the fact that the team is in development, in construction.
09:23In a club like Paris Saint-Germain, do you think we have the time to develop and build?
09:29Because there is a lot of expectation, a lot of pressure around this club.
09:33Do you think this is the place to do it? Thank you.
09:38The question is whether we hear a lot about the project in development.
09:43But do you think that in PSG there is this time to build because there is a lot of expectation and a lot of pressure?
09:49I believe that being a coach of Paris Saint-Germain is a privilege.
09:53And the pressure that I impose on myself is greater than any pressure from anyone.
09:59I have not come here to pass the time, like none of the previous coaches.
10:03My goal is to try to win the most games and titles with my team.
10:08And I'm not thinking about possible titles in a year, two years, three years.
10:16No. My goal is the present, to be competitive in the present.
10:20But it is evident that all the information is very useful.
10:24I believe that being a coach of PSG is a privilege.
10:32And the pressure that I impose on myself is greater than any pressure from anyone.
10:38I have not come here to pass the time, like none of the previous coaches.
10:45My goal is the present, to be competitive in the present.
10:53But it is evident that all the information is very useful.
