00:00Good evening, everybody. If we can start with Jack Kelly, please.

00:16Thank you, Jack.

00:17Hi, Marco.

00:23Good evening.

00:25Disappointing result for us, but more than a result, very disappointing performance.

00:32We got what we deserved from the game, definitely.

00:37We played 20 minutes in all the game.

00:40I think our image as a team, what we should have done and what we did planned for the game.

00:46We were there, small, small spells during the first half.

00:50When we set up ourselves on the ball and we were able to find our Alex or Seseno.

00:56And more when the impact of the change in the second half, that first 20 minutes, they made a big impact.

01:03And during 20 minutes, we were completely playing in our way and controlling the game.

01:07And because we had to create two clear chances to score, one with Rodrigo, one with Kevin as well.

01:13That was the spell where we played like we should play throughout the game.

01:18In my opinion, we clearly lost the game and we started to lose the game in the physicality.

01:22We didn't handle at all the physicality of the Everton side.

01:27And you can see throughout the game all the chances, even the disallowed goals they created.

01:34And they came all from a second action after set-piece or long throws or corners or wide free kicks.

01:40All the moments, all the moments come from that moment.

01:44And when this type of thing happens, it's not a bad tactical point of view about this type of thing.

01:49It's a moment that you have to win certain type of tools that Premier League demands from you.

01:53Simple as that.

01:54Some teams play in one way, other teams play in the other.

01:56And you have to be able to handle.

01:58Because what is more disappointing for us, not for me, for all of us should be,

02:03is you have been losing and winning games away from home.

02:05Our away from this season so far is not being at the level that it was last three seasons.

02:11Definitely because last three seasons we have been very balanced in terms of results away and home.

02:16This season is completely different so far.

02:18We have to change it.

02:19But we have been always very competitive.

02:21We have senses with some injury problems like we had again this afternoon.

02:25But we have been very competitive always throughout the games.

02:28It was not the case at all this afternoon.

02:30And in my opinion, you can lose football matches because the other teams are better than you.

02:34But you cannot lose football matches because of the physicality of a football match.

02:38Never.

02:39You have to reach certain standards that have to be there.

02:41And this is what disappoints me more because at this level we know what is not negotiated at all.

02:46And this type of things we cannot negotiate.

02:48It has to be there.

02:49It is always on the top.

02:50About Rodrigo, sorry.

02:51Bad news probably for us when a player that came in and after we have to take, after 10-15 minutes we have to take him off.

02:57It is not a good sign.

02:59It is being difficult for us in that position.

03:01Even Raul, I think it is clear for you that you know very well that he is not in his best at all.

03:07You have been managing Raul almost every single day of the week.

03:10He is not training.

03:11I don't remember one full session from him the last 15 days probably.

03:14And you can feel it after a match.

03:16That is not easy for him to be able to reach this type of intensity level that I have spoken before.

03:24And of course, after Rodrigo came, good impact in the game.

03:28Great chance for him to equalise the game.

03:30And he felt something again in the same leg, in the same area of the arm string.

03:35Of course, it looks not good news for us.

03:39Let's see the next few hours, eight days to analyse him.

03:42He was 50-50.

03:44He felt something was precaution as well.

03:46Both things they were in the decision.

03:48But of course, after that period, it was more difficult for us.

03:51After that change, even if we tried with Adama, which was as a striker.

03:54But of course, it is more difficult even if you had the ball.

03:57After that moment, it was more difficult for us to create the chances that we have been creating

04:00before that moment, after the half-time.

04:03Any further questions, guys?

04:06OK, thank you very much.

04:08Thank you, thank you.
