00:00From the players that you're working with this weekend, and obviously it is a big game,

00:03what improvement do you feel you need to see that will give you the best chance

00:06of maintaining your own 100% record and ending Arsenal's?

00:11The most simple answer to that is a lot, because we face a very strong team.

00:18That was already really good last season and I think I've improved their squad a lot during the summer.

00:24So, yeah, and if you then look at all the quality they have,

00:31but especially one thing that stands out in the season till now,

00:35and what stands out in a negative way for us is that we've conceded,

00:39if I include the Bilbao game, four set pieces.

00:42And of course, as we all know, that's one of their strengths, not the strength,

00:46but one of their strengths, because they can play in multiple ways.

00:49You can see how well they are managed by Miguel and they're working for five years together,

00:53because they can play almost every style there is in football,

00:56and that tells you how well managed they are.

00:59But one of their strengths is also set pieces, and that is an area where we,

01:05if you look at Monday, when we faced Newcastle we conceded two,

01:08and against Bilbao we conceded two.

01:10It's a part we need to improve, where we, by the way, were really good at last season,

01:15so no panicking at all.

01:17We also had to defend at Newcastle 350 set pieces,

01:20so then only conceding two is not even so bad.
