00:00Is Alexander Isak ready to start now, obviously thinking with no Hugo Erketike in particular?
00:07Yeah, he's able to break minutes again. I still feel 90 is...
00:13Depends also on the pace and the intensity of the game, but that might be a bit too much.
00:18But not only that, also for the long term, so you can give a player maybe one,
00:23I would call stupid, hit to bring him to 90 and then his body is completely...
00:28He brought him too far over the line, so I don't think it's smart to play him 90 yet.
00:33But yeah, he's further into his pre-season now, and normally after two or three weeks in pre-season,
00:40players go to 60, 70 minutes, and in some clubs they even bring them to 90,
00:45but if you look at our pre-season, we mainly bring them to 60 to 70 minutes then.
00:50Just check on Hugo as well, because there's been a report that he'd been disciplined over his sending off the other night.
00:56Has he been fine or anything like that?
00:59Discipline means that I spoke to him, then it's disciplined, but I don't think that it's disciplined.
01:04Discipline means fine and that he didn't gut, so it wasn't very smart what he did,
01:11what he recognised himself immediately straight away, so he said sorry straight away to his teammates.
01:18He's young, players of all ages do make mistakes, and that's what he did in this situation as well,
01:27but we all make mistakes and you're allowed at this club to make a mistake without immediately getting fines or these kind of things.
01:37He's a fantastic human being, I think if you talk to all the staff members and you would ask him a top three of the warmest persons
01:45and the most polite persons, I think he's in every staff member's top three.
01:49So even if he wasn't a person like this, he was able to make a mistake, but he wasn't smart.
01:56But it didn't hurt us one Tuesday evening, it might hurt us a bit more tomorrow.
02:03The positive thing is that Federico Chiesa showed that he is showing himself at the moment,
02:11so it's also a chance for him now to be on the bench and maybe he kept playing minutes with Hugo not being there.
