00:00I see it, I see it and I just want to win.

00:22I try to put the players, I don't look who it is, I don't care about that.

00:27I just try to put the best players on the pitch.

00:31You have Ugarte that played two games, one of them, Kaza, was out, Bruno is always fit,

00:40he's the guy that is doing his position, so maybe it has to do with that.

00:47I don't know guys, I don't know, I don't know, it's the same question, I don't know,

00:52I don't know what is going to happen, it depends, I see the training, I see it's the best thing

00:56for the team, I will put it, that is the only way I know how to respond to that.

01:03I agree, obviously Wolves provided some low moments at Molyneux last season, but on the

01:11dark at the moment, how important is it not to take the fact that they did not win a game

01:14this season for granted because you just played 18?

01:18I think everything can happen and that will change, there is no team in the Premier League

01:23history that didn't win one game, so it can be any game, so we need to try to improve,

01:31to rest the players, work really well and prepare a tough match because with us it's always

01:37a tough match.

01:38Do you understand why we ask about Kobe, because he's home grown?

01:43Yes, of course I understand and my job is to answer, but I'm trying to answer always the

01:51same thing and you ask me always the same thing, I understand what you are saying, you love Kobe,

01:56he starts for England, but that doesn't mean that I need to put Kobe when I feel that I shouldn't

02:04put Kobe, so it's my decision.

02:08For all you say about the academy, you don't actually trust the academy.

02:12Why?

02:13Because you never pick any players.

02:16Any players we have Kobe might not.

02:19But Lacey in difficult situations, and Lacey sometimes when Brian is not there, I put

02:26Amad because I have other wing backs to play and sometimes it's hard.

02:31So you are asking me why I don't put Lacey to play when I have other guys that are international

02:38and also they are in the bench.

02:40So I try to put the best guys, the prepared guys for this moment of the club and try to

02:46win a game.

02:47That's the only thing guys.

02:49I don't know, I think it's a clear fact but I think it's not a mental thing.

03:14I think they are not thinking we are going to top five.

03:17No, no.

03:18I think it's some moments we play good, sometimes we play bad and we are not getting the results.

03:23Do you think Diogo and the Ties will be OK for the next game?

03:26Who?

03:27Diogo Dallo and the Ties, will they be OK for all?

03:30I think so.

03:31We'll see.

03:32Go.

03:33You used to say the word anxious and Patrick Doggy last week, Diogo Dallo used the same

03:44word after today.

03:45How do you feel about solving the team maybe feeling anxious when they have a 1-0 league?

03:49I said that Diogo is anxious today.

03:51No, last week you said Patrick Doggy on the ball, so it's obviously similar to Diogo

03:55I didn't feel the team anxious, I feel the environment a little bit anxious because it's

04:09normal, because we proved in the past and people understand that nothing is certain here,

04:15but we didn't draw because of that.

04:18We draw because in one second ball we have advantage, we let a corner in the corner,

04:23anything can happen.

04:25Mr. Amrit, last season you mentioned the squad's physicality, it was different in Europe compared

04:32to the Premier League, today you mentioned about second ball, do you think the team has

04:36that necessary, the characteristics you talk about?

04:39No, we can win second ball, we were winning second balls and after the goal we lost a little

04:43bit the second ball, especially with Mateus, it's moments of the game and that's why I

04:50tried to put Manu and Maison Mount, they are aggressive, trying to win the second ball,

04:55and that can happen in moments of the game, not all the time.

05:02No, it's not, I don't know, maybe it's more tactical than physical, to be prepared for

05:09fighting for the second ball, maybe because we scored a goal, we are a little bit more relaxed.

05:14I have the feeling that we have the game under control because the opponent is not even near our

05:19board box, I don't know.

05:20I have to check.

05:21Please forgive me for this question.

05:22Of course.

05:23Mr. Prescott, you said I don't know multiple times, but also you do know the things that

05:26you want to do to improve them and then fix them.

05:31I said don't know today, many times.

05:38This one?

05:39More.

05:40This one today.

05:41Yeah, but when?

05:42When?

05:43But when, when, when, when I say don't know, which question?

05:50Let's move on.

05:51Robert.

05:52Do you know now when you're going to have players available?

05:58No, we are dealing with everything.

06:02They are going to play the next game and that is the only thing I care.

06:07Last question for Pete.

06:09Hi, Ruben.

06:10You didn't score against Everton here, a right-back scoring tonight.

06:17Do you, front-three struggle again tonight, do you feel that you have enough fire,

06:21power to see your project through or is that something you might want to be looking at

06:26in January?

06:27No, we have, we need to wait until January.

06:32We need to, to, to see what we are able to do.

06:35Um, so I don't know, I really don't care about that in the, in this moment.

06:40I just want to prepare the game with the players that we have and we have to be better in the

06:45next game.
