00:00Good evening, everyone, hope you're well.
00:12We'll take a share of hands for questions, please.
00:15Somewhere to start?
00:18Somewhere to start, please, guys.
00:23I didn't speak with him, I was knocking the balls right,
00:26but I didn't speak with him.
00:28Hopefully he's fine.
00:30How frustrating an afternoon was that?
00:34No, it's not a word.
00:36Last season was much, much worse, but beyond much worse.
00:39I think we played against a good team, a really good team,
00:43a good game, I would say.
00:45It was impressive.
00:47We missed in the first half when they link behind our strikers
00:53or our wingers to be on the duels,
00:56two against one, three against two or four against two,
00:58and at the same time they were able, maybe because they are good,
01:01and we are not good enough defensively today,
01:04they were able to get out for that position and after they run,
01:07and after they took a little bit of control, a part of the set-piece.
01:11I don't know how we adjust better, we control better the center, the middle,
01:17because they play a lot there.
01:20And yeah, they consider one of the transitions and set-pieces that they are good,
01:26but in general we were there.
01:28They block the crosses, the shoots, and everything when you shoot 16 shots,
01:33so it's not bad.
01:34I don't know how many in target, to be honest.
01:36Yeah, of course, they block really well, the keeper is fantastic,
01:38but yeah, in general I don't have much complaining,
01:42little details, but in general it's, yeah.
01:45Good.
01:46Sure.
01:47Does it show that Erling is not going to score?
01:55No, no, no for that.
01:57I think we have scored, we have scored a lot of goals this season,
02:00Erling of course, but yeah, we have to make a step up,
02:03of course it's that, but today it's difficult because they defend real well,
02:07Kamara go to the back five, or then a back six,
02:09and they defend man marking in that position,
02:11and they have to bring a ball outside,
02:13I don't know how many times we're writing by line for Savino first half,
02:16and the second half with Savio,
02:18and the first half with Savio,
02:20and after with Jeremy,
02:21and we make the crosses there,
02:23how many times Phil attack, or Tijani attack in the last line for the pass,
02:27for the block,
02:28so we were there, we were close,
02:29I had the feeling that in other games we won,
02:31we were not so productive in that term.
02:34It's just that, yes, in our high pressing,
02:36when they contact behind us,
02:37we were not good enough to regain that ball,
02:39and when you regain that ball you defend deep,
02:41and of course with the pace with Watkins,
02:43with Morgan Rodgers,
02:44with other players,
02:46with McGinn,
02:47the strong they are,
02:48the physicality on Ana,
02:49Kamara,
02:50so we know it,
02:51so it's a Champions League team,
02:52unfortunately for them they are not there,
02:54but it's a Champions League team,
02:55it's a top, top team for many years,
02:58and they will compete really well,
03:00so they are in a good way.
03:02Sorry?
03:03That doesn't count.
03:09Three times in a row they have lost.
03:14Three times they come there and they lost,
03:16yeah.
03:17It's a tough,
03:19it's a tough place.
03:21It's a tough, tough place,
03:22I don't know how many games they lost here,
03:24maybe in the beginning of the season,
03:25they started a little bit in the situation,
03:27but Anai always settle good things,
03:30and it's a really good team.
03:32All I can say,
03:33I say it all the time,
03:34so I admire them and they do very good things.
03:37The physicality on Ana and Kamara,
03:39are you very difficult to play through?
03:40Yeah,
03:41but not for that,
03:42not just the question,
03:44so always I believe I have to do it as a team,
03:46and we were there,
03:49so it was more of that position,
03:51the position of the long balls and the duels,
03:54in the first half especially,
03:56we were not able to regain that ball
03:57to continue to play to play,
03:59and when that happens,
04:01when you go high-pressing,
04:02tail-long ball,
04:03you win that ball,
04:04you play,
04:05you lose that ball,
04:06many things happen,
04:07you have to defend deeper,
04:08and that today,
04:10especially in the first half,
04:11we struggle a little bit.
04:12Sorry?
04:19The first time?
04:20No,
04:26I'm not going to tell you,
04:27for the fact that we didn't come back,
04:29it's bad,
04:30the spirit in the second half was really,
04:32really good.
04:33We make a chance to a transition,
04:35the corners and win the falls,
04:37and the other ones,
04:38but the second half was really good,
04:40they defend well,
04:41we could not break them,
04:42but the action with Savio,
04:43with Jeremy,
04:44with Oscar,
04:45we are there,
04:46the field shoots,
04:47Tijani were more present in the box,
04:49how many times we attacked,
04:50with the first half,
04:51with Johnny,
04:52you know,
04:53attacking from the centre,
04:54to make a pass,
04:55for nothing,
04:56for the block,
04:57we miss that,
04:58we miss in Dallas action,
04:59you know,
05:00to shoot better,
05:01to cross better,
05:02ride better,
05:03but they defend really well,
05:04with a lot of players,
05:05and sometimes it's not easy.
05:08With Arsenal,
05:09Arsenal has started to open up,
05:10how concerned are you about that?
05:12We try to close,
05:13Arsenal has been solid for many years,
05:15in this time,
05:16our concern is how we can improve better,
05:19better, better,
05:20the team,
05:21and to be close,
05:22this is for my experience,
05:23it's so long,
05:24so long,
05:25this is my experience,
05:26but there are many teams there,
05:27and they have,
05:28yeah,
05:29a good test against Bournemouth,
05:30that is doing really well,
05:31Bournemouth and the other ones,
05:32and,
05:33and try to do our game.
05:39I was worried,
05:40before international break,
05:41I was 14 at the table,
05:43there was,
05:44I know,
05:45seven,
05:46eight,
05:47or nine points,
05:48six or seven points in front,
05:49so,
05:50listen,
05:51our job is not to sit towards the table,
05:52they win,
05:53they win all the games,
05:54and they win the Premier League,
05:55congratulate them,
05:56so we can do,
05:57but,
05:58I had to feel that the team is alive,
05:59the team is good,
06:00they play,
06:01I don't know how many teams can play here,
06:02and play the way we played,
06:03with the courage,
06:04the possession,
06:05and chances,
06:06and,
06:07and,
06:08and,
06:09and inspecting goals,
06:10all these kind of things,
06:11is that,
06:12we have to be stable with that,
06:13and after that,
06:14of course,
06:15we have to read little details better,
06:16but,
06:17I don't live,
06:18in October,
06:19and November,
06:20thinking,
06:21oh,
06:22what is going to happen,
06:23if I,
06:24we don't win the Premier League,
06:25so,

06:27now Swansea have to prepare well,
06:28go there,
