00:00Well, first of all, I think it deserves some words from Eddie and Gundo and Manu that have been unthinkable to what we have done in this time without them.
00:14Eddie helped us to create a special way. I have been our keeper for the best decade for this club.
00:22Gundo the same, one of the best signs when I arrived.
00:26How smart, intelligent players and Manu for different reasons.
00:30He's not here and I wish him, I wish personally, all the best of the three because they helped us a lot to be who we are and we had the chance after that when Eddie had one or two seasons thinking we were going to take another experience.
00:44At the end it happened and the market gave us a chance to take Gigi that, you know, 26 years old, incredible experience with the big clubs, with the national team from Italy.
00:56And yeah, we are looking forward to help them and do it.
01:00I had hurt in that time, I was younger and a lot of times, it's not the same.
01:08Any one of us is the same after 10 years, but yeah, that's true.
01:12When you change 10 players, it has been really, really important.
01:15Every time we have made a process.
01:17So last season, before we started, we just bought Savinho and because I rely a lot with the players that we had.
01:24But after last season happened many, many things in terms of injuries, in terms of many, many problems that we had and the club decided not from now, for the next years, you know, to make the first step to do it.
01:39And I would love to have, you know, for the players for eight years ago, seven years ago or six years ago, but it's impossible.
01:47In any club always there are changes.
01:48And of course, when you change 10 players in a period for four or five months, of course, everything is need to be settled, fixed and coordinated.
01:58And we are doing very, many good things, but still, we have to be, of course, more consistent than we have been, but step by step, we'll do it.
02:09The end is kind of players' decisions, you know, both.
02:14There are players that want the agent, right?
02:16There are decisions that have been made for the players, there are decisions that have been made for the club.
02:20And I'm part of the club, so Eddie was two years, I was thinking, OK, I've done everything after winning the Champions League, I won the Premier League and the other one for my family as well.
02:31To me, an experience didn't happen, it happened this summer, this, yeah, this moment.
02:37But apparently, always I tried to doubt the quality of the players.
02:41I would not demand to Gigi to do something like, like, it's really uncomfortable.
02:46We are talking about the best players I've ever seen in the distribution, in short and long, I've ever seen with Ederson.
02:53So, we didn't take Gigi to do what Ederson has done.
02:59Gigi has another quality, and you're talking about the winger that he had in the past.
03:02For example, Riyad, Rahim, or Leroy, it's completely different to the winger that we have.
03:07So, it's not...
03:09So, when you say one analysis of one player, it looks like you want to undermine the other one.
03:12It's not about that.
03:13So, it's just, I said, the players, their central defenders, for example, Kusanov, they are faster than all the other central defenders they have.
03:21When he's faster, he's faster.
03:22Because mum and dad gave him a genetic that the other ones didn't give it to him.
03:25But the other ones have something that Kusanov doesn't have.
03:28So, and at the end, we have the potential from Gigi, or for James, or for the players, the keepers that we have, use them.
03:34Pep, this morning, Anis Lott described Alexander Isaac as, to quote him, probably the best striker in the world.
03:44Where does that leave Erling?
03:46A little bit above.
03:48He's above.
03:50His statistics show it anyway, don't they?
03:54His goal scoring.
03:55Listen, it's the same way I answered before, Isaac is an exceptional player.
03:58You ask me what Erling is as a striker, so, it's top.
04:04But, of course, must be a top player, Isaac, because what they paid.
04:08So, it's obviously.
04:10I mean, nobody's saying Isaac's not a good player, but Erling's statistics suggest that he really is a phenomenon.
