00:00Sincerely, I don't know if we're going to have a conversation and I'm not going to individualize it with a case.

00:05If we use the typology in general,

00:09if we would put a player with a much higher salary than the players we have today

00:18and who are qualified in the Champions League,

00:21it would destroy all the balance, all the good things and the good dynamics

00:26that the players have built during this season.

00:30This would be a part of a club,

00:33a lack of respect for players who have qualified the Champions League

00:38and who have created a positive dynamic.

00:41If not, you have to do the second thing.

00:43You have to call all the important players of your team

00:46and also propose their salary.

00:49We are very interested in the management of our team

00:52with a range of salary that is coherent.

00:57For me, this is the first rule of the management of the time,

01:01not to create this type of difference.

01:04I committed this error in the balance,

01:07in the second season of the Champions League.

01:09We destroyed the balance between three months.

01:13And we had to separate the players from the players

01:16who created the difference between the salary and the dynamics of the group

01:20in the divers markets.

01:22And all this made the group return to be coherent and cohesive.
