00:00Okay, guys.
00:20Okay, if you want to get us started.
00:23Keris?
00:25Congratulations to the win.
00:26I just wanted to ask about cold times today, obviously.
00:29How did I know that would be the first question?
00:32But I wanted to ask a bit about sort of how have you asked him to adapt under you?
00:37How do you see his kind of role under you?
00:40Same as he's always been.
00:41I don't want him to change, that's for sure.
00:44We changed the system a little bit for the first time.
00:47In the first half of the players to put that into practice the way that they did some of
00:52our passages of play.
00:53Obviously, Cole gets three goals, but some of our football was everything I wanted to
00:57see and he was a part of that.
00:59In terms of Cole, we know what a world-class player he is.
01:02He's played a lot of football over the last year with not much rest.
01:06But when he's at his best, he's unstoppable.
01:09And yeah, I'm delighted to be working with him.
01:11I wanted to ask as well about the team's reaction to going behind today.
01:15Not going behind, the conceding, sorry.
01:18What did you make of kind of the way that they reacted to that?
01:22It felt like they went to take this thing out of the game a little bit.
01:25Yeah, there's different ways you can control games.
01:27I challenged the lads at half-time.
01:29The last time Chelsea played here, I think they were 3-0 up and the game came to 4-3.
01:35So I mentioned that to them at half-time and said, we want to go on.
01:38But we just, sometimes, I want to make excuses because I want us to be perfect all the time.
01:43I wanted the same performance in the second half as the first half.
01:46But when you concede a goal, it changes the momentum of the flow of the game.
01:50I saw the frustration, which I liked in the players, in not keeping a clean sheet.
01:54And sometimes if you have the ball, the other team can't score.
01:57I'd like us to be more offensive at times, but I think the first half was a really,
02:02really good platform to build on.
02:04Dan, the Coles goal from open play, is that just the sort of football you want Chelsea?
02:10That's the blueprint, that goal?
02:13Starts with Rob.
02:15We bounce through, make an overload in the middle of the pitch.
02:18We use the overload on the 2v1 on the other side, cut back, Coles scores a goal.
02:22It was a very, very pleasing goal.
02:24And hopefully, I'd like any goals, but that's the type of football that we want to play,
02:29that I want to play.
02:30And it was a really, really great finish.
02:32Kieran?
02:33I just asked what went on Fernandez, sort of playing towards the left,
02:38which I don't think we've seen before.
02:40Yeah.
02:40How helpful is that for you as a manager?
02:42Because he seems a bit like...
02:43No, it's amazing.
02:45Enzo's playing in exactly the same position.
02:47He's been played in probably 80, 90% of the season, which is in the left pocket.
02:52That's where he plays.
02:53Actually, he's got more freedom because we're interchanging a little bit more
02:57from our system and from our structure without the bullies on the left.
03:00So that's probably why it looks different today, because of the way Wolves played.
03:05He's not changed his position, to be honest.
03:07It looks that way, but his position in possession is the same.
03:10I'll just check on Rhys James.
03:11Yeah.
03:12Rhys, unfortunately, he's so close.
03:14And he should be fit for Tuesday.
03:16I know I said that today, but honestly, at the moment with the games that we've got,
03:20everything is day by day.
03:22He's really, really close.
03:23There's not a major problem at all.
03:25And it'd be great to have him available for Leeds on Tuesday.
03:28Peter?
03:29Liam, what is the issue with Rhys?
03:31Is it a knock?
03:32It's just a knock.
03:32It's a pain management issue.
03:35And to be honest, Rhys was out running yesterday, but it just wasn't right.
03:38And it's not right.
03:39Again, we're still in the midst of a really, really difficult period of games,
03:43the demand games that we've got.
03:45Hopefully he comes back fully fit, fully rested for Tuesday.
03:48Can I just go back to Cole?
03:51Can, I was going to say, he'd have confidence or whatever, but his celebration,
03:55I don't think it was sort of the first concept, his hands over his ears a little bit.
03:58Obviously, it's not been an easy season because he's had his injury issues,
04:01but can moments like this just help propel him to that?
04:06He's already there.
04:08He's already there.
04:09He doesn't need to change.
04:11When he's fully fit, fully firing, feeling good, he's a magnificent footballer.
04:16And when you're at a club like this club, with the huge demands and the scrutiny,
04:22which I'm starting to learn myself, yeah, you have to block out the noise
04:25and you have to remember what a good player you are.
04:28I love working with him.
04:29He loves being here.
04:30And hopefully now he can really enjoy his football between now and the end of the season
04:34because it will help us on the pitch.
04:36Dom?
04:37You never want to think that he's in third, but especially when you're three and up
04:41and you're going like that, you've got four months in the season.
04:44How frustrating is that for you?
04:46And it's slightly changed what came on for you?
04:49Yeah, very frustrating.
04:51You always want to keep clean sheets.
04:54Whether it was the 10 minutes against Crystal Palace
04:57or the first half against West Ham or the first half against Napoli
05:01or in moments because we still play some good stuff in the second half today.
05:06I want us to have a perfect 90 minutes.
05:08That's my job.
05:08And I don't want us to switch off from set plays.
05:11I don't want us to give cheap chances away.
05:14And that's something for us to improve on.
05:15And I think when we do have more time to work on things
05:19and how we manage games,
05:20there's a lot of game management things we need to look at.
05:23I think we can be even more difficult to beat.
05:26Okay, thanks, guys.
