00:00Yeah, a clean sheet is really important.
00:09We didn't play well during all the game but we had our moments.
00:13But if you look at the performance, it was a team focused, defending well, trying to
00:19kill the game in the second half, so I'm pleased with that and now is to move forward to the
00:26next one.
00:27Yeah, I think he looks confident in the first game but the important thing is that the teammates
00:37helped Sen to have a good game because everyone was focused, not a lot of mistakes against
00:44a team that was really comfortable playing football, so we did well, it was a good day
00:49for us.
00:50A lot of people with Sen here wondered why he's not playing before now, the fans have
00:58thought that he should play.
01:00What kind of thought process did he go through to decide he's not playing, he's not playing
01:08better?
01:09So, first of all, Altair was playing and then he arrives and you can feel it that he needs
01:16to adapt.
01:18New country, new training.
01:20The pressure that you guys put on the goalkeepers are massive.
01:23So it was like a little preparation for the guy to be ready to start his first game but
01:30now it's just one game and he needs to work because he needs to be prepared that in our
01:35club things are really hard.
01:40But he did well and again, he was comfortable during the game and that is a very good sign.
01:56There is no momentum with our team, so with a break, without a break, we know what happens
02:02when we win one game.
02:05For me, the frustration is not to see the same team at home and away.
02:11You saw today, we didn't play well in the second half but we were focused, we fight second
02:16balls, Ben was there to touch the ball all the time.
02:20So these small things are going to help us to win games and sometimes you have your moments,
02:25first half we had a lot of moments, but then in the second half, if we cannot play well,
02:29they will not play well.
02:30And that is the way a big team plays during the season, so that is the big frustration.
02:37I think Mason Mount is more a midfielder than a winger or a striker.
02:52He can defend really well, he's really smart, he can attack really well.
02:55Today he has a number of minutes because we have to manage when a guy like Mason is returning
03:04from injury.
03:05He did really well.
03:06So it is the characteristics that we are going to change when we look to every opponent.
03:12I saw today and I know that they want to do the best and I know that they don't want to
03:26change the coach all the time.
03:28But like I said during this week, to be with the manager, I will kill myself to go in every
03:35transition, we need to show with actions and sometimes when we look at our team, I know
03:43for sure that when we see the games in the end, they know that sometimes we can do better.
03:49So I feel that during the week, but we need to show that on the pitch, not just at home,
03:55but also away.
04:08To score the goals, to give us a different type of profile inside the box, to use more
04:14crosses because he's going to improve the connection with his teammates.
04:21How many times Sene kicked the ball, he was there to give the first touch.
04:25That is more important, especially in this league that we are thinking.
04:29When there is a throw, we have an extra guy that is really big, especially in the first
04:33post.
04:34So, all the characteristics that bend, not just the goals, but all the characteristics can
04:39help us to win games and we are happy with him.
04:44He puts a lot of pressure on himself, that is not a bad thing.
04:48But he has potential to do so much more.
04:52How pleased is the ball?
04:56Really pleased.
04:57Really pleased.
04:58I think he defends really well, attacking.
05:01We already know that he is really good.
05:03Every time he has the ball, one against one, he is giving us a lot of chances to score.
05:11He can help Bryan to play more inside and worry more with the runs behind the defenders.
05:19We miss a lot Ahmad against Bradford, especially when we are second half 2-1.
05:25To have an extra guy like Ahmad, it's massive.
05:28So, we are really pleased with him.
05:29He did a very good job.
05:32Thank you, guys.
05:34Thank you, guys.
