00:00We'll struggle for sure because the league is really tough, it's the best in the world.

00:04I think everyone at the football club and any club that's coming up into this league

00:08understand that investment is needed because you're going into a league

00:12which is pretty much established at this present moment in time.

00:30What do you think?

00:38We have to break the rule, it's very important.

00:42Last season we broke a big rule with five defeats in a row and we won the playoffs.

00:48I think it's always a new story and you can't be just limited with previous experiences.

01:00I've been very clear with us and this team that we've got a huge challenge ahead of us this year

01:23and it's a challenge that we're going to embrace.

01:25After one game and our first game being Tottenham away, we've not managed to get a result.

01:31The positives are for 60 minutes, we were right in this game.

01:34We've got an exciting season ahead.

01:42I think the Premier League is getting tougher and tougher in terms of breaking into our top six.

01:46I think we want to play the same European football.

01:49We've got a European trophy to our name which is an incredible feeling to be part of that.

01:54So we want to bring those good times back to the club and we feel like we're in a good position now to do it.

02:00It's a perfect start, our dream start. We all know we need to follow up on it but today I will just enjoy it.

02:18I hope the players, the club, the fans enjoy it today because that's important.

02:24We want to return to Europe but it's hard as a Manchester United coach to say one thing like that.

02:32But we need to be realistic with our fans. Even that we are going to have to fight a lot

02:38because there's a lot of good teams with more time than us together.

02:42We want to return to Europe.
