00:00If the reaction is after you lose against Palace you lose another game, you can argue if that is positive.

00:10But I saw a team that wanted to try from the first to the last second everything to get a result.

00:16I said many times last season the margins are so small.

00:19In the last two games it's been obvious and clear that we've made a few errors that we're not used to.

00:26If you do things that people are not used to and you lose a game of football, then normally the other ones, the manager, gets criticised.

00:37There is vulnerability about any team in the world, not just Liverpool.

00:43But if a team wins all the games, it's impossible to catch them.

00:48When we did the interview, after five games they had 50 points.

00:53My words was if they continue in the same way, it's impossible to catch them.

00:57Now they lost one game, two games, that show that there is vulnerability.

01:03This is something for me from not just Liverpool, from all the teams in the world.

01:08And then the Premier League, you know, how difficult it is.

01:13No, quite similar, little details, but quite similar with Thomas Frank.

01:17And I did really well, so it's a tough place to go.

01:20But I've been, but in the same time, yeah, looking forward for the last game before the international break.

01:25Do what you have to do.

01:27And the most optimism makes me happy is that I've used the margin to improve.

01:32I love that feeling.

01:35You know, like the feeling that I think we can do better.

01:39We can do better.

01:40And this is the feeling that I like to be as a manager.

01:45We want to continue to play and flow and dominate games in the manner that we are doing.

01:50And this is going to be a key fixture.

01:53Obviously, we learned in the last two seasons as well, because we have two defeats against them here.

01:58And it's someone that we need to put right.

02:01And tomorrow is another opportunity to do that.

02:03Well, and that's actually the difficulty of that.

02:05And the game that we're going to have to play tomorrow as well.

02:08And with the new manager and we know Nuno really well and the way he sets his team.

02:12So we expect a really tough match that's going to demand again three days later to come back and have the same performance to win the game.

02:19It's going to be a really tough match.

02:21They are doing really well.

02:23And then when you see the games, they draw with less one player in the final of the game.

02:32They draw one point and then they win in the final play against Brentford.

02:37So it's a team that plays really well.

02:39It's a clear system, the 4-3-3 with a lot of rotations on the side of the pitch.

02:45They are confident and they know that we are going to be under pressure.

02:49And we need to be able to play with that.

02:52And we are prepared for a tough, tough match.
