00:00That is normal but we didn't use that excuse against Newcastle.

00:16We are not going to use today but of course if you see the game I understand why we play

00:22the way we play today.

00:24The lack of fluidity, lack of one against one.

00:29We knew that it would be a completely different game compared to Newcastle because in Newcastle

00:34we have more space to play, we didn't have to work the play so much and today we have

00:44difficulties in that aspect and that is clear.

00:56We knew that they will play with the five, they will use the width and today was just

01:03to do that and then sometimes building up with him open or close with Luke Shaw doing the opposite.

01:11So we try to arrange the right situations for the situation that we have in the moment.

01:18Ruben, sorry, you said a lot that you know that this team is not the finished article but

01:25is this tonight an example that you need more creativity in your squad, there was a lack

01:33of creativity and it feels as though there are some players within your squad who can't

01:38give you what you need and you need greater depth.

01:43I think we are in one situation that you have a lot of players out at the same time.

01:49Of course, when you play Casimiro and Ugarte in the middle, you know that is different.

01:55When you have Cobimain or Maison Mount or Bruno, that is normal.

02:00So we just need to recover our players, the players from AFCOM to return and then the fluidity

02:05is going to be different.

02:07But again, we won the last one and today we could win with the players that we have.

02:12We have lack of fluidity and then lack of quality and then lack of creation of chances

02:19and then we suffer a goal with set pieces with the team and we are told in this moment.

02:23So these details are important to win these games in difficult moments.

02:44It is completely different and you know that when there is a lot of new people in different

02:51positions and you put one young kid, he will struggle.

02:56It is completely different when you have a base, everything is working well and you can

03:00give minutes to a young kid.

03:03You look at the game and you understand clearly and you see our team and you know that you are

03:09going to struggle in certain aspects and I think that was what happened during the game.

03:15You just did Cersei, who obviously is a much more experienced player.

03:18I have seen your comments about why he came off but is there an element of a risk there

03:22where you take off an experienced player and you put on quite a bit?

03:26Oh, we need to do what the game was asking.

03:29We were struggling, they put a lot of men in the middle of the park and we managed to do,

03:35we jacked, we balanced that.

03:38I think we recovered the ball faster in the second half.

03:42In the first half we struggled a little bit to recover the ball.

03:45So I am just looking not for their age and the experience.

03:49In this moment I just look what I can do to win the game.

03:53Rob and then Andy.

03:54Just on the Rosetta's decision, was that tactical or not?

03:59No, no, no.

04:00It was just tactical.

04:01Andy.

04:02The home form was encouraging at the start of the season.

04:07That's how one win in five at home.

04:10And most of the opponents have been from the lower end of the table.

04:14Is it an extra pressure being at home?

04:16Why do you think this is happening?

04:18It wasn't just tonight when it's been a struggle?

04:21I think against Everton we clearly underperformed.

04:27We had some lack of creation but we have our chances.

04:31We had the advantage three times.

04:35So the details was not offensively.

04:38It was not the creation of chances.

04:40We had the game.

04:41We had full control of the game.

04:43Today was completely different.

04:45Newcastle we struggled but we managed to win at home.

04:48I think this year I don't feel that.

04:51I feel the support of the fans when we are here.

04:54I feel that they want to play at home.

04:56I feel that we are dominant at home.

05:00We won one that they were a little bit more dominant.

05:04It was the last one.

05:05Today we had lack of quality, fluidity in the game today.

05:09And that was the reason of our game today.

05:11That's quite a super savage.

05:13Obviously today was disappointing.

05:15Andy's touched on the other at this point in home results.

05:18But you're only two points off the potential Champions League spot

05:21at the halfway point of the season.

05:22So how do you look at things going into the new year?

05:24And how confident are you that those small things that have cost you change?

05:30I'm really confident.

05:34We just need to recover all the players.

05:37And I'm really confident.

05:38I don't know what is going to happen until the end of the season.

05:41Then we will make the resume of the season.

05:46But I'm really confident when we recover all the players that we are going to be a strong team.

05:51There is no doubt in my mind.

05:53Do you think you have to impact the risk?

05:55I don't know.

05:56I have to check.

05:57I'm not going to risk anyone to lose them for one month or two months.

06:02So we will try to arrange solutions.

06:06Again, let's see.

06:07And we will try to win the next one with no risks for the players.

06:12Thank you guys.
