00:00My focus could be completely on getting Liverpool back on winning ways.

00:03The thing that gives me the most confidence is the quality of the players we are at.

00:12If you don't win in the beginning, people are like,

00:14maybe they don't have the same team as last season or whatever,

00:18and then they start to win and then everything is very positive again.

00:21We're with us. I think it's exactly the opposite.

00:30What do you think?

00:35They've done very well in the last five, six, seven or eight games.

00:40And that didn't come as a surprise because even in the games they've lost before,

00:44you could already see the signs that they are a very good team

00:48and their playing style is really good.

01:00I think it's always good to win a game and especially a big game like this

01:09because you know you face so many quality players.

01:12I don't think anyone in the last eight or nine years or maybe even longer

01:16would have said that City at home or away.

01:19The word easy never comes up to my mind if I think about City.

01:23Playing against Roma, they play against Man City.

01:29Teams that have been and are so good with managers that have won so many trophies.

01:38It's always nice to come out in both situations as a winner.

01:42For now the focus is on the future and is on how can we get a good result

01:49or at least a good performance against Villa.

01:53Because normally a good performance from this quality players leads to a good result.
