00:00How are your feelings after that game?
00:03It ended well. I think we deserve to win the game.
00:09I think we created a lot of chances.
00:12We should go to the half-time with a bigger advantage.
00:18And then, everything in this moment, every procession near our box, they can score.
00:27And we are in that moment, so we're tough, always chasing a lot of things.
00:33But we deserve and we try until the last minute to score goals.
00:37We have our chances and in the end we deserve the win.
00:40Can I just ask you about Mace and Mound and the Tennis Kunia?
00:43I don't know. We will check them.
00:47We need that guys really bad to be really competitive.
00:57Yes, some moments. But when they put the effort, I will always love him.
01:05Even when Amad is missing that kind of goal, I love Amad if he's giving everything.
01:11And I think we need to understand that we should always be on this level of effort.
01:19Because even in the game, we played well in the beginning.
01:22I think we struggled when we changed the characteristics of the players
01:25because the match is not so perfect and you can feel the team struggle a little bit,
01:29especially in the second half.
01:31But the effort was always there.
01:33We tried to put the ball in the box.
01:35We put more people inside the box, not just around the box to play the ball.
01:41Some of the things that we worked during the week and spoke about, they were doing that.
01:49They were focusing the game.
01:51So that is the most important thing.
01:53Richard then Simon.
01:55Hi Reuben. I'm just wondering if you could talk about the situation with Benjamin Seska
02:00because you didn't bring him on when either Kunia or Mound was injured
02:03and also the other night he only took the tenth penalty which surprised people.
02:09Everything is connected.
02:11So he finished the game with cramps really in the limit.
02:16That's why we protected Ben from the penalties.
02:20And today was that reason also because Josh is also a striker.
02:25He's an international striker.
02:26But I was thinking that Ben during the preseason, he didn't do 90 minutes.
02:31And he did that even against a four-division team.
02:34He did that on Wednesday and with the problem of Kunia.
02:38You don't know if that full game in the middle of the week has something to do with the injury today.
02:46With the problem with Mason Mount, I was not risking another player not knowing if they are able to play so many minutes.
02:53So everything was connected.
02:54The penalty, the game on Wednesday and the number of minutes that I was thinking to put Ben today.
03:00You say that it feels like the opposition can score when they get possession around your box.
03:08But one of the reasons for that is that goalkeepers keep making mistakes.
03:14And they realize that everybody makes mistakes.
03:16But a goalkeeper in particular.
03:18Is that a problem?
03:19Because that undermines confidence surely in your defense.
03:22Guys, they are humans.
03:27And Manchester United, everything is in use.
03:30Everybody talks about the goalkeeper.
03:32And you can see I can change the goalkeepers and the situations happen.
03:35We are in that moment.
03:37I think it is hard to be a Manchester United goalkeeper in this moment.
03:42But if you look at the first goal, we can defend better the box.
03:46We suffered a quite similar goal against Fulham.
03:50Because we don't do the full rotation of the team when the ball is on the other side.
03:55All these small things have nothing to do with the goalkeeper.
03:58So players are struggling a little bit with all the things around the club.
04:04If that is normal.
04:05So it is not just the goalkeepers.
04:06I think everybody has to improve.
04:22Yeah, it was impressive the way he stretched the team.
04:25The quality that he has in the first touch.
04:28And you can feel that we are a different team.
04:30Because when we win the ball, we have one guy stretching the team.
04:34Last season, we struggled a little bit with that.
04:40And then you can see the first minutes of the game.
04:42You can understand.
04:43You can compare this to Wednesday.
04:45And you can feel it.
04:46It is not about playing well.
04:47It is the sound of the fans when we are pressing and winning balls and corners.
04:52And you sprint to get a corner.
04:54You sprint to get a throw-in.
04:56It has nothing to do with the tactical or technical aspect.
04:59So today, I just need to watch sometimes the first minutes to understand the mindset of the team.
05:05The important thing is that if you take Wednesday, we were more consistent in the performance compared to last year.
05:23That is a good thing.
05:26But I am not thinking about turning points.
05:29I have this conversation with you guys like 10 times.
05:32It is day by day.
05:34I am happy.
05:36We return.
05:37Sometimes playing well or not so well.
05:41We return a little bit the team that we should be.
05:43Competitive.
05:44Creating chances.
05:45We need to score.
05:47Sometimes we block the opponent in their half.
05:51We press really high.
05:53So we have a lot to do.
05:54But we return a little bit to our level today.
05:57Thanks everyone.
