00:00With the squad, I believe it was the best one to give us the possibility to do it.

00:06Is it where I want it to be? No, because of the injuries that we have.

00:10To have a squad means that the players have to be fit and available,

00:14because that has a lot of consequences, not only during matches,

00:17but as well in the way that we prepare for the week and the options that we have to change

00:21and keep the freshness in the team.

00:22But certainly very happy with how we deal with certain situations.

00:26I mean, we always have to be prepared.

00:28I mean, the moment that we have an option to touch the squad, to improve the squad

00:33or to protect the squad, depending on what happens.

00:35I think we need to be open for a time from what is going to happen from here

00:38till the window is closed as well is football.

00:41So we don't know, but we're certainly going to be alert

00:45and we know where the risk can come in terms of the squad

00:48and be ready just in case we have to do something.
