00:00You mentioned you wanted to work with a smaller squad.

00:02What are the numbers like now for you?

00:05Is there still work to be done to get people out?

00:07Yeah, we have a few, a little bit.

00:10But I think many, many clubs happen the same, right?

00:13But, yeah, we should.

00:17It is difficult because I love all of them, I like all of them,

00:22and they like to be here and the situation is not easy, but they know it.

00:26So we have a lot of players and tomorrow will be two players in the Tribune

00:30and if the players come back, there will be four or five at home.

00:33And, of course, it's not the ideal situation.

00:37But at the same time, we have a lot, a lot, a lot of games.

00:40Every season is more and more and you have to have another squad to compete in every single game.

00:47Can you put a number on it, how many you expect to stay or depart maybe?

00:51No, no, I don't know.

00:53At the end, with three weeks, I know the market in Saudi Arabia is a little bit longer,

01:02but this, I think, happened in many, many, many teams, you know,

01:07that they have a bigger squad, they have to move them,

01:10because all the managers like to work in the right number of people,

01:13because they deserve to play all the players.

01:15And when the players are at home, we sense, but they have to find the balance,

01:20the desire for the club and especially for the players, and after we decide.

01:24All right.

01:24I could love him, and I could love him.

01:25All right.

01:29See you later.
