00:00Thank you, Anthony.

00:27Good evening, Thomas.

00:29I don't know where you even begin to sum up a game like that,

00:32but your first words to me last night were that the performance is always more important than the result,

00:36and that is surely a performance you're very proud of.

00:39Yeah, definitely pleased with the performance.

00:44It was the reaction I wanted from the players, from the team.

00:50I've been working very hard on that.

00:52The players, the staff, me, to make sure that we responded well

00:58and bounced back, because that's crucial after a bad performance.

01:02Today I saw more identity of the team.

01:06I want to create, we want to create.

01:09Much more character, personality, aggressiveness.

01:14Three words you need to have in any team, no matter how you want to do,

01:18how you want to play, whatever formation, whatever.

01:20Today we saw it.

01:22That I'm pleased with.

01:26Of course, I think it was a performance that was up there where we could get something out of the game,

01:34a draw or win.

01:35So that's a little frustrating thing, that we concede some goals.

01:41Of course, one with a little bit of margin from Virginia,

01:45not putting it into, not top corner, but top corner.

01:49And then, of course, the goal three and four.

01:52Those are the ones we definitely need to avoid,

01:55if we want to get something out of here.

01:56But something to build on, strikers scoring two goals.

02:04The whole team, I think, overall performed well.

02:06Archie Gray, Lucas Berg, well, positive.

02:08And then we played against a decent team.

02:13They have one Belong Deo winner.

02:16I think the next one is playing in midfield, Virginia.

02:19Wow, what a player.

02:20Just one other one from me, on Randall Koulamouane.

02:25Even aside from his two goals last night,

02:28we just saw what he is capable of once he gets a bit of a run in the team

02:32and a bit of consistency under his belt.

02:34Yeah, definitely.

02:35I think today we saw what hopefully we can expect.

02:41I think even two goals and assists every game is probably too much.

02:46I would love to get that every single game.

02:47But, as I said, the whole time he came in late with no pre-season,

02:54not top fit, had two setbacks, especially with the dead leg

02:58and then the broken jaw.

03:00Today we saw more of it.

03:01He's still not top fit.

03:03So hopefully we'll come even more.

03:06You mentioned Archie and Lucas there.

03:08I mean, how impressive is it for two 19-year-olds

03:10to come to a place like this and play with that kind of fearlessness?

03:14Yeah, definitely.

03:15I'm very impressive.

03:18Two young players, still from the beginning, I believed a lot in.

03:23Archie was there ready before Monaco

03:27and then unfortunately picked up the calf injury.

03:30So we've been waiting for him to be ready again.

03:33And today he showed a lot.

03:36And the way the two of them set up the first goal was also joyful to watch.

03:43But the mobility, technical, ball handling, mentality, character, I liked it.

03:53Tell us a little bit about your formation tonight as well

03:55and especially the way that midfield worked.

03:57Yeah, we, as you can see, the game plan was to really get after PSG, go man-man.

04:05Everyone who's followed me just a tiny bit know that that's what I want.

04:09I was much more of their identity, that aggressiveness dynamic into the team.

04:15And to do that against PSG, there's that fluid and that mobile all over the pitch.

04:21I thought we need a more running, powerful midfielder across the midfield four.

04:31So, yeah.

04:33Tom?

04:33Hi, Thomas.

04:34Just to link to that, the team seemed to be much more threatening in attack today.

04:39You can create a lot more chances, a lot more fluidity.

04:41What do you kind of put that down to?

04:42I think a combination of a good response to we had a good performance,

04:53so we simply just performed better.

04:56I also think that it was a more open game,

05:01so when you face a team that is banged in,

05:06you probably sometimes meet a little bit different.

05:09Today it was more open,

05:10and then where we can use mobility of Archie, Lucas, Pape,

05:14and then the two strikers that work well together.

05:19Hi, Thomas.

05:20I just wanted to ask you about the midfield again.

05:23I think it's only the second time this season

05:24Lucas, Archie, and Pape have all started a game together,

05:28and the first one was against Burnley.

05:29What made you decide that all three of them,

05:32because a very young trio,

05:33could start this game together and all work together?

05:34I think the main bit was a little bit the game plan that we wanted for running midfielders,

05:42so not a winger or not just because of the dynamic to follow their man in the man-man pressure.

05:51That was one thing,

05:52and then because they knew when we wanted in these open spaces,

05:56and they're so willing to run.
