[SOUND]
00:08
>> Afternoon guys, same process as ever, mics on either side and
00:11
we'll set an embargo towards the end for 10.30 on Sunday evening.
00:14
Start with any place.
00:15
>> Well done today, Pep, how do you sum up the performance?
00:19
>> Yeah, good.
00:21
>> What's the most pleasing aspect of it?
00:25
>> I love to win this type of games, the difficulties there, we knew it.
00:28
We talk about that for the years we are together,
00:32
always everything here at home has been really, really complicated.
00:34
We lost a lot of points, many years.
00:37
And what I pleased the most,
00:39
the something that the people maybe cannot see, like is the body shape,
00:43
the positivity, the body language in the second half was much better.
00:47
The first half was complaining, we were, I know, 2.30 is more difficult all
00:51
the time, it's happened here at home, but our body language was not good.
00:55
So the chemistry between the players when someone lose a ball or
01:00
someone is not going well, always have to be better.
01:04
In the second half, we read better, I would say the spaces where we should attack.
01:10
The first half was not good.
01:12
And I would say that Kyle and Kevin make an incredible contribution and
01:19
Bernardo and Jack as well.
01:22
So especially Jack in the last minutes to keep the ball, keep the ball.
01:25
And yeah, we didn't concede one shoot, general was well deserved.
01:31
And I like to win this type of game suffering and
01:34
knowing how difficult is everything in the Premier League in life.
01:38
So nothing is for granted.
01:41
That means you win five games doesn't mean you're going to win today.
01:43
And the people is aware that the way they celebrate the goals,
01:47
how difficult was and how pleased they are.
01:51
>> Nice to see Erling back on the score sheet, two very different finishes as well.
01:54
But as well as that another assist for Kevin De Bruyne.
01:57
How do you sum up the understanding between the two of them?
02:00
>> Well, since day one, so Kevin needs a runner and the runner of Kevin needs assist.
02:06
So when both the connection was natural way from the beginning, so they are back.
02:12
Kevin, Erling is back.
02:14
So it's really important for us because at the end, the first goal is so difficult.
02:18
It's an asset pieces goal, difficult.
02:20
And with the right foot finishing we had.
02:24
So yeah, it's important that they're back.
02:29
>> Questions guys, I got no hands, Jack.
02:30
>> Hi, have you seen the incident between Ben Godfrey and
02:34
Edison back from the first half?
02:39
Looks like Godfrey kicked Edison in the head, which is obviously the second time
02:44
he's had Edison's had trouble with an injury in a game in recent weeks.
02:47
We just wonder whether you didn't see it.
02:52
>> I didn't see it.
02:53
I didn't see it.
02:54
Honestly, I cannot give an opinion about that.
02:56
I didn't see it.
02:58
>> In the in the first half, it looked like both fullbacks were coming into midfield
03:03
at the same time, which I don't think we see too often.
03:06
Have you tried that before?
03:08
Is that a new?
03:08
>> Yeah, we tried but it didn't work for the way to defend.
03:10
It doesn't work.
03:11
Manu didn't feel comfortable.
03:14
We changed our structure, but it was more than that.
03:18
It was we didn't read where were the spaces and
03:20
the spaces were more with Phil and Jeremy and we didn't turn the ball.
03:27
It was so passive in the start one side and
03:29
we didn't use the middle to go the opposite side.
03:32
That's why we struggled a little bit.
03:34
It's quite similar with this on par.
03:37
Second half we changed our rhythm, the same like today.
03:40
Hopefully next season we can start better against them.
03:44
>> Sam.
03:45
>> But is the bigger picture now is 10 games in all competitions.
03:49
You want them all undefeated in 13 going back to Villa.
03:52
You had a bit of criticism by your standards in December for the form.
03:59
And I know you've always said that the performances are good.
04:01
The results are volatile, things can go the way.
04:05
But it does say some 10 wins in a row in any season is a big achievement.
04:10
So- >> It is.
04:12
It is.
04:13
But the fact that one person give an opinion that doesn't mean the opinion is
04:17
right, because I'm sorry.
04:19
So I know the team because I see them every day.
04:22
My opinion is fresher and is better and
04:27
is not being affected for
04:31
the fact that they wanna, that we lose games or no continue to be there.
04:37
So always the game was there.
04:40
Of course, when early in Kevin, we are stronger, it's obvious.
04:44
But when a team lose the consistency or
04:50
we have to be worried is the way they train, the way they behave, and
04:55
the way they run, and always was there.
05:00
I'm not talking to score goals or go see more.
05:02
And when that happened, the team is alive.
05:04
And I never, I was concerned, no concern.
05:06
I was, I wanna see after travel how the players react.
05:11
And since the day one, I didn't have that feeling.
05:15
They're up and down, their players are better than the other ones.
05:17
Phil is playing better than last season.
05:19
Jack play more minutes than last season, but it's normal.
05:23
They're not at certain moments, it's not the level of the last season, but
05:26
it's normal.
05:26
So you cannot demand, Kevin White now is incredible fresh.
05:30
You see it coming from the bench when last game against Red White,
05:34
five month injured.
05:36
Man needs rest, he's so clean, the legs are so clean, and now is,
05:41
I wanna play, I wanna play.
05:43
In a process of years, there are up and downs in that.
05:45
But they are the average, how the team higher than average.
05:50
Always I had the feeling, but when you analyze, they draw a game against,
05:56
no winning against him, lack of consistency.
05:59
They are not good enough.
06:02
It's not about that, it's not.
06:04
So we can play bad, yeah.
06:07
First half was good, no.
06:08
Why? We didn't read what you have to do.
06:10
Okay, happen.
06:11
So I said, in our time, with 38 games in a row, we just play.
06:14
Win 3-0, 4-0 after 20 minutes against Everton every single time.
06:18
No, that is the reality.
06:20
The people, city is back, city, how good is back?
06:24
No, no, no, reality is Everton.
06:26
Everton at home.
06:27
Last season, the travel, we could not win.
06:30
With Ronald Koeman, I could not beat them.
06:31
Like with Frank Lampard, beat Drogba as well.
06:36
So always a struggle.
06:37
We knew it, we spoke about that, we'll be tough, 12-30.
06:39
Today play 8pm, no problem.
06:42
12-30, problem.
06:44
For sure, for sure, it's now.
06:46
But how is the positivity?
06:48
How is your body language?
06:49
We talk about this last two days a lot about that.
06:52
How is your body language?
06:54
One game, one player miss a game, start to complain, miss a game.
06:58
Kaput.
07:00
Kaput.
07:01
Miss a game, let's go, next one.
07:03
And I do it for you and after you do it for me.
07:05
In a sporting life, positivity here make you perform better.
07:09
When the time complains, you feel sorry for yourself,
07:12
oh, what happened?
07:14
Nothing.
07:14
The people don't feel sorry for yourself, my friend.
07:17
People come here to watch the game as best as possible,
07:19
to win, and here's next one, positivity.
07:22
And the team this season, in the difficulties,
07:24
make a step forward.
07:25
How many times we come back losing positions,
07:28
or today was a tough game.
07:30
I said, I would love to have after 15 minutes,
07:32
4-0, four goals for Real Madrid.
07:34
I would love it.
07:35
I would stay all the time sitting with Juanma.
07:38
But it's not like that.
07:41
It's, OK, and today, that's why I love to win this type of game,
07:45
because we learn the lesson.
07:46
We learn the lesson for what's coming now.
07:49
You know, for Champions League is already there,
07:51
and Chelsea's next month with openings that we have,
07:56
we'll be there for.
07:57
But the environment of the team, the feeling of the team,
08:01
for the day one this season, after win the travel,
08:03
I said, OK.
08:05
OK, still, I like.
08:08
I like with the watch.
08:09
I like it.
08:10
That doesn't mean going to win, no.
08:11
But I like it.
