00:00That's why I've chosen him as a captain. I think his leadership qualities when he steps on the pitch.

00:06There's a big respect around him from the players of the pitch as well.

00:12He also sets the standards and then I think it's fair to say no matter what they are, he's 27 I think.

00:21There's a few probably a little bit older than 27.

00:26So even myself when I look back at myself at 27 years old of course I thought I could do everything.

00:31But I also found out that as a leader I'm 1000% better now.

00:36So he also needs to learn and become better and better and I'll do my best to guide him.

00:42Yes, I think when I name a captain it's because I think he's the best.

00:47No matter what can help the team now and also in the future.

00:53So he's not really linked with the contract situation if that makes sense.

00:57Of course he's a very good player so I would love him to stay for longer.

01:01You're safe.

01:07Here we go.

01:10All right, thank you.
