00:00It was a tough match, I think that when we scored the goal we forget about maintaining the way we should play.
00:15We were just thinking about maintaining the results.
00:19We want to win so bad that we forget about maintaining the possession, trying to push the opponent.
00:26We just gave a little bit the game to Fulham, we stopped really well, until the goal, I think we were a good team, we can do better.
00:39After the goal, I think, again, we were just thinking about maintaining the advantage, we cannot do that.
00:46Ruben, you obviously prioritised this summer the attacking part of your team, but the goals have not been easier.
00:56I appreciate that Kouni, in particular, was unlucky with Willard-Picci being made himself in the ball out of the sky.
01:04Are you concerned that the problem of not scoring last year is still there?
01:09No, I forget about last season, I think the feeling is there.
01:13Like you said to you, when we were playing the game we scored a goal and I didn't feel that the team was more confident now to face the game.
01:25We were more concerned about now we are winning, we need to hold on to the result.
01:30The goals are going to, we are going to score goals because we are creating so many chances and that is the most important thing and then we just have to move on.
01:40I think you said before that he needs to increase the rhythm, increase the pace of the game. Is that why he hasn't had any minutes yet?
01:53What do you mean by that? Is it quicker or more dynamic?
01:56No, because he is fighting for the position now with Bruno.
02:00I changed two midfielders, I let Mason Mount there because we want to score a goal.
02:06And then when I changed I felt that the team needed to return to one holder midfielder near Bruno.
02:16So we just need to fight the position with Bruno, like should be in Manchester United.
02:20Is it a competition for Bruno?
02:22Yes, for Bruno and then he is going to play with Bruno but in the moment he is fighting in training with Bruno for the position.
02:28No, no, no, no, no. I think it is a normal thing and when you reach this level Cunha can play, Cunha played in as a striker.
02:46Or as a 10 in the former club. I think I felt that during these last games that with Mason Mount sometimes we are more robust in the way we play.
03:08So we are going to change according to the result of the opponent and try to win games.
03:15Last question in this section for Rich.
03:17Ruben, we seem to cameo at the end of Szczesko, as well as what you made of Szczesko's first period since FN.
03:23I think in its time it is not easy to get sometimes to you are on the bench and you go to the game and the game is really fast.
03:34I think he is understanding that the game is even faster than in Bundesliga.
03:40But his fighting, he had some good connections with the teammates.
03:46I felt that when he was on the pitch, he was not on our best moment and that can change the way you see a player.
03:54So I am really happy because he is putting all the effort.
03:57We need just to help. We need to be sometimes in the better moment to help him to show the qualities that he has.
04:03Ok, move on to our pre-Grimsby press conference.
