00:00¿En todas las ganancias que has tenido como manager?
00:03No idea.
00:07No tengo idea.
00:10No sé.
00:11En el juego de fútbol, muchas cosas pueden suceder.
00:16Tenemos que enfocarse y tratar de ganar el juego y después ver lo que pasa.
00:22No tengo un plan específico.
00:26Just try it.
00:27¿Tienes que transmitir tu opinión de que el equipo puede cambiar el juego?
00:32Porque es una gran pregunta.
00:35Bueno, después de 10 años, tengo que convencer mis jugadores sobre mis jugadores.
00:40Estamos en problemas.
00:43Ellos saben muy bien que en cada uno de los jugadores que hemos probado,
00:46hay que ser una excepción.
00:47Ellos tienen que.
00:48Son los jugadores que han jugado y estoy seguro que han probado.
00:51Yo sé más de ellos.
00:53Claro, más de ellos son nuevos.
00:55Los jugadores que han experimentado en esas situaciones.
00:58Y no somos el mismo grupo que hace muchos años.
01:01Pero al mismo tiempo, es una gran experiencia y una gran oportunidad de probar.
01:07Hola, Pep.
01:08¿Puedo nos llevar a la decisión de dar a los jugadores a día a día?
01:13We train tomorrow.
01:15Before the game?
01:16Yeah.
01:16Okay.
01:17And you say many times this is mental.
01:21Also, it's not just football.
01:25There's also a mental part involved.
01:27How much does this move, a mental part, a mental way of recharging your players and get them ready for
01:33it?
01:33It's related.
01:34The way you play, as much as you play good, your mental will be strong and if you are not
01:38good, it will be weaker.
01:41So, it's more than 90 minutes.
01:43I'm not much concerned about the chances that we're going to create.
01:46I'm pretty sure we are able to do it at home always.
01:48We are able to do it.
01:49It's more how well we are going to defend.
01:53The task is massive, so score more than three goals against Madrid is not easy.
01:58The result in the first leg is not the perfect one.
02:02But at the same time, we are here.
02:04It's a football game.
02:06Everything can happen and our momentum is always.
02:08The United Stadium are there.
02:09We have to create as much momentum as possible with our people
02:14and do a good game for the talent players that we have and defend well.
02:19Pep, you said the task is massive.
02:22Does it have to be a perfect performance, would you say?
02:25Definitely.
02:26From a manager's point of view, are you thinking of a way of trying to surprise Real Madrid somehow?
02:32No.
02:34It's about the players putting in their perfect positions.
02:39We play with four or five strikers in the first leg.
02:42We didn't score a goal.
02:43Sometimes you play with two false nines and something like that.
02:46You can score five goals.
02:48You never know.
02:49The idea is there.
02:50We have to try it.
02:53Not many different things that we have done at home.
02:58Just when we arrive there to try to score and defend better the positions.
03:04Yeah, perfect game in many senses.
03:06In the bad moments, no, it's happened.
03:07It will be a perfect game during 93, 94 minutes.
03:11So it's just to try, to try, don't give up.
03:14The next one and always we can create in a certain short minutes chances.
03:21So we know with that.
03:22We know because we know each other.
03:24It happened that season.
03:25The season just, we create that and we're not finishing.
03:27And if you are able to be clinical there and especially defend well, always we'll be in the game.
03:36Obviously you would never choose to be in this position, but some of the most memorable Champions League games have
03:41come from teams coming back from a first leg deficit.
03:44You know, Barcelona and PSG is one example.
03:48You said before, it's just a place in the quarter-finals on offer, but for the fans who go tomorrow,
03:52if they were to see you pull off, it's something they would probably never, ever forget.
03:59We have seen, for example, in many games here, I remember against Tottenham or against Madrid two times, they scored
04:07four goals or four goals.
04:08The problem is not about the goals.
04:09Against Tottenham, they scored four goals or five, I don't know.
04:12And they scored three or four and Madrid scored the first year three goals.
04:16So, the problem is not about that we are able to do it.
04:18We are able to create chances here.
04:21Even in a short time in the last games, in 10, 15 minutes, we are able to be there many,
04:26many times.
04:27So, we have to create as much as possible knowing that, of course, the quality of them is completely different
04:32than the other opponents.
04:33They don't give the ball away.
04:36They are able to run, but they know it's a Real Madrid.
04:39But Real Madrid, what happened in other teams in the Champions League, the quality is there.
04:42So, it's easy for me, guys.
04:46The first 20 minutes, we have to score three goals.
04:48Yeah, perfect.
04:50Good message.
04:51But the reality is completely different.
04:53It's just to be sustainable in our approach, in how you have to do it,
04:58and in all departments that we are working tomorrow or talk tomorrow about what you have to do until the
05:05end.
05:05And we know it's notable because the first result in the first leg was not the best one.
05:11So, it's difficult sometimes, you know, because we create the first 50, 20 minutes, four or five times in by
05:17line.
05:19Bernardo was alone in the six-yard box and two, three crosses, cutbacks that we didn't arrive.
05:23And they, three shoots and targets, three goals.
05:25So, that is the Champions League.
05:27That's why it's so difficult.
05:29And the opponents, that's really good.
05:31We have to live with that.
05:32Of course, we have to take more risk in terms of trying, but even the result is not good in
05:37the first half.
05:38We have to keep going, carry on, go, because you never know.
05:43You never know.
05:45Hi, Pep.
05:46I mean, in your personal history, you've had some games and some ties where you've come from behind.
05:51I mean, do you have a favourite comeback, a comeback that you always remember?
05:57Maston Billa, last game, to win the Premier League.
06:0174 minutes, 0-2.
06:03It makes three goals in 12 minutes.
06:08So, and now they come back.
06:09We did incredible things in this competition, scoring goals.
06:11But concede, for goal difference, we are out.
06:13For many details, for the decisions for the referees, for many reasons, sometimes you are out.
06:19So, it has to be a perfect game in many, many departments.
06:24In our people, in the referee decisions, for many, many things have to be so good to make these kind
06:30of things.
06:31But it's nice, an experience to live again.
06:34Always have good memories in the defeat.
06:35So, always one of the more exciting moments when the Tottenham games, when the other one, we are out.
06:39But what a game, what a moment.
06:41It's painful, it's hard, but always remain now in my pockets.
06:45Not always remain the good things in your life.
06:48The bad things are always apparent, good games and good experience.
06:50How to create a good game.
06:51With our people, hopefully they can make an extra and extra bonus.
06:56And, yeah, try it.
06:58Pep, about the training.
07:01Did you feel that today was more important to rest the bodies or the minds?
07:07Listen, we were in Madrid.
07:10We were at a late in the hotel.
07:12We stopped to sleep.
07:13Come back in the morning.
07:15Travel here.
07:16Day after, here, no training.
07:18Go to London.
07:19Arrived yesterday at 2.30 a.m.
07:22So, today you recover.
07:23Today you cannot do anything because the players who play, they are still, you know, at home.
07:29And tomorrow we'll train.
07:30So, we don't have to train something like a repetition for the training will make us to play better the
07:36game against Madrid.
07:37Because today in the modern football, in the top teams, the training don't much improve a lot.
07:43It's understandable.
07:44Because you don't have time to train.
07:46So, I prefer today to be at home and for me as well.
07:50And tomorrow, instead to arrive at 3 or 4, we arrive at 2.
07:53We move a little bit our legs.
07:55On the pitch, we're going to try, listen, try to do this and go.
08:00I did it two or three times this season.
08:02So, it's not the first time.
08:07You did it before the Dortmund game in November.
08:10The Fulham game.
08:11Yeah.
08:12Yeah, I've hit two or three times this season.
08:14So, when it's three days different, sometimes I train, sometimes I said, stay at home.
08:1811, we are nine months, no, 11 months, we will make a World Cup season, two weeks, World Cup, two
08:25weeks, start the season.
08:26So, we know each other quite well.
08:29We talk now.
08:30Now we practice many, many things.
08:31You have to practice to improve because it's too late.
08:34How beneficial was that to give them that extra time?
08:37I don't know.
08:38We try to put our best, but I don't know.
08:44Pep, you've spoken a lot about the need to defend very well in this game and be perfect.
08:51How has the defense been over the last few weeks and what improvements are needed in it?
08:56Well, if you play the game against West Ham, if you make a shoot on target in corner and don't
09:00move, that will defend well.
09:02Really, really well.
09:04So, in terms of the people saying, yeah, we have to move more, we concede.
09:09So, let's try to, you know, to avoid that is not easy because the quality of Madrid always is there,
09:15but try to, you know, the situation that will be there in the one against one, the keepers, defenders and
09:20everyone,
09:20the solidarity to work behind because with the ball, maybe, maybe I'm wrong.
09:26Maybe that may we play and we are not able to do it.
09:28But from experience in the Champions League or in that position, but we need to do it.
09:33Always we are able to create chances, always, in every, every single game.
09:37So, instead to do it maybe 15 minutes, 20 minutes, do it in as much longer time as possible.
09:44Jack?
09:49Given that you did defend well on Saturday and didn't give up any chances,
09:53does that give you a little bit of a selection headache for tomorrow?
09:56Because, obviously, Diaz didn't play Saturday, but you did defend really well and Kusenhoff against Vinicius might be really important.
10:05The selection I have already done, more or less, yeah.
10:08I know the team is going to start tomorrow.
10:10I don't have any doubts.
10:12One doubt, maybe, but the rest is clear.
10:14And have you seen, apart from last week at the Bernabeu,
10:19have you seen an improvement in the stability of the team over the course of the season?
10:23Yeah, much, much.
10:24It was a moment, yeah, for Kusenhoff goes in Fulham.
10:27In the second half, a crazy game.
10:29And six children target Madrid, three times, three goals.
10:34And, yeah, sometimes, yes.
10:35But, in general, yeah, I'm satisfied for many, many things.
10:37Our high-pressing is good.
10:39Expecting goals is higher in the Premier League alongside Chelsea.
10:41So, I always have been there.
10:44It's just what I said after the game against West Ham,
10:48but I had opinion for many, many months.
10:52So, just miss, miss, miss.
10:54Yeah, the chances of them create, most of them convert.
10:57That it was.
10:58What they had to try to do, it is this amount of chances,
11:00create much more amount, create more opportunities,
11:05and just put the ball in the net.
11:07So, they had to try to do it.
11:08Some questions in Spanish.
11:10We'll start in here, please.
11:11Thank you.
11:12Hi, Pep.
11:14How are you?
11:16The other day you were speaking about
11:19you've faced Real Madrid 50 times as a manager,
11:23as a player too.
11:24Is this...
11:25Is what you're missing is an epic comeback
11:28in the Champions League, re-nulled down?
11:31Do you visualise that?
11:32How do you prepare yourself for this mentally?
11:34We'll give it to go.
11:35But I'm not missing anything from the games that I've faced Real Madrid.
11:39I'm very satisfied.
11:40I'm very satisfied.
11:41The experiences I had as a player to play against Real Madrid 50 times.
11:47It's not bad.
11:48I've not got a bad record as a player or a manager.
11:52I'll just be doing it for my team that I represent now.
11:55During a decade, we've managed to do some incredible things.
12:00But that won't change what I've experienced as a player and how a manager, the meetings we've had.
12:10And that won't change anything in the game tomorrow.
12:13You spoke about the rest that you've given to your players.
12:18Why did you do that?
12:19Is it superstition?
12:22Because we saw you did that against Dortmund and it worked out well.
12:26I'll find out tomorrow.
12:27We'll train tomorrow.
12:29We'll train tomorrow instead of train today.
12:30It's very simple.
12:34Now, today we would have trained on the same things as we will tomorrow.
12:37Maybe 1% difference.
12:39So, three days difference.
12:41We've had two long trips.
12:44We went to London as well.
12:45It's a long trip.
12:46You have to go by a train or plane.
12:49We came back from West Ham.
12:51We're not going to be doing anything.
12:53They'll be at home, the players, with their families today.
12:57And then they'll send each other WhatsApp messages, I'm sure.
13:01Or imagine.
13:02And tomorrow we'll see each other.
13:04And we'll train a little bit.
13:05And then we'll play the game.
13:08I wanted to ask you, before you were talking about scoring goals, you've done that in many
13:17other games.
13:18But I wanted to ask you about your defense.
13:21Kylian Mbappé will be playing, or he's definitely traveled.
13:24Does that change the way that you plan the game tomorrow?
13:28Can we see, perhaps, a surprise from you?
13:32No, we'll see after five minutes.
13:37If Mbappé is back, it's better for them.
13:39We'll see if he plays or not.
13:42No, I don't know.
13:47Hi, Ken.
13:49I wanted to ask you about a special message that you will give to your team, talking about
13:57coming back.
13:59Or do you feel like it's just another game where you give them a special message?
14:04No, there's not really much more left to say.
14:06It's like a final.
14:09It's a perfect game to turn around.
14:12There's very few messages now.
14:15We're all older adults.
14:18I do feel, not because of what I've spoken to them about or when I saw them a little bit
14:25yesterday.
14:26I know that we're going to give it a go.
14:30Whether we can achieve it, I have no idea.
14:36Hi, Pep.
14:39You've spoken about bad things form part of your experience, your history.
14:45Can you talk to me about the culture, failure culture?
14:50There's possibly a chance that you will be out again early in the Champions League.
14:59Do you feel that failure in sports, how do you manage that frustration with the team?
15:05The important thing is that you don't believe that it's a failure.
15:10So we have to convince ourselves the strength, the commitment you put in to what you dedicate
15:16your life to.
15:17In sports, you can do things well, the other team can be better than you, you accept it
15:23and you just try and get better and then try it the following season.
15:28For many wonderful adjectives, you can use, you don't have to feel that it's like that.
15:35It comes from hard work, dedication and you have to love your sports, respect your fans,
15:41your people.
15:43There's no team in the world that wins always.
15:46And there's no perfect performances in football either.
15:52There are occasions when you can be extraordinarily fantastic and that's happened during many times
16:00over the last few years and we've had some wonderful ties against you guys
16:04and many times we've gone out.
16:08Is it a failure?
16:08You decide that.
16:09You think it's unfair to talk about failure in sports.
16:12It's not important about what I feel about it.
16:15It's whether you feel.
16:15What do you feel?
16:17I've always responded.
16:18I've already answered you.
16:21Those things don't change.
16:22How do you manage it with the squad?
16:25The squad, you say, what a shame, we're not in the Champions League.
16:37Not always won all the time.
16:39It doesn't exist.
16:40You lose more than you win in sports.
16:41You can qualify it as a really huge disappointment.
16:45How long will you spend thinking about it?
16:47One day?
16:49Three, four?
16:50Things carry on.
16:51You just have to get on with it.
16:54There are much more sad things happening in the world
16:57to spend too much time on that.
17:00We'll try and do things well.
17:01We'll move on.
17:04Madrid were fantastic in many things.
