00:00Hopefully this season we can make a little bit more challenge in the last years,
00:09because Mikel is an extraordinary manager and what they increased the squad for this 4-5 transfer window.
00:21So it's an unbelievable squad, an unbelievable team.
00:25It's one of the toughest opponents you can find right now in Europe.
00:29It's about winning again and creating, you know, another good moment for us, consistency,
00:36competing against one of the best teams obviously in the world and good test for us to see our level as well.
00:43The man that he puts first of all on himself, the standards that he requires for everybody around him,
00:47his will to win, to evolve, to improve, you look around him always, he wants to surrender about the best people.
00:55For me, he's by far the best coach in the world, I always said it, I had the pleasure to work with him
01:00and win a lot with him next to him, so yeah, it's always great to see him back.
01:06Good team. Indeed, there is rivalry, but what I also liked, and I want to emphasise in this moment maybe on that as well,
01:15what they did when Djokovic passed away coming to Anfield.
01:19In these moments of times it's so nice to see that in those tragedies the rivalry is still there,
01:24but the respect towards both is also there.
01:27So yeah, looking forward to the game tomorrow because every Anfield game is special,
01:33but this Derby is even more special.
01:38We have another game, we prepare for it, we want to keep our good form going
01:42and we look forward to going to Anfield and seeing how we perform.
01:46Any big derbies in any big cities are always really important.
01:50This has always been an incredibly difficult game for me personally because we've always come up against
01:55a really good Liverpool teams, whatever it's been, teams who've had some great players over the years
02:01and made it really hard for us, but we've always been competitive, it will not change.
02:08We'll always do everything we can to try and get a victory.
02:11This is football and this is the club with more pressure maybe in the world, but we want to win.
02:18We need to be more aggressive in the boxes, we need to be more clinical.
02:22The rest, I think we are improving and comparing to last year, I think we are in the better place.
02:28But again, we need to win. We lost against Arsenal and we lost against City.
02:32And here losing, especially in the beginning after last season is a problem.
02:39I think it's always difficult to play United away in their stadium or Trafford.
02:46So I don't think that now is the right moment or next year will be the right moment or last year.
02:51was the right moment. It's always difficult. It's a difficult team, it's a difficult stadium.
02:56I watch the games that they played this season. Some of the game is not a real result in terms of even City game.
03:04Until 1-0, 2-0 they were in the game. When the game was 0-0, they had a few chances to score
03:09and to go ahead on the result. So it will be a tough game, no doubt.
03:14Well, everybody.
03:15Good luck.
03:16Good luck.
03:17Good luck.
03:21I will see you in the next episode.
03:26Good luck.
03:29Bye.
