00:11Hi Pierre, obviously a heavy defeat. How did you see the game? Did you feel like the score
00:15line reflected the game well? I think the score is heavy because we
00:25exhausted in this game during 65 minutes and we created some chances from the beginning
00:32to the 65 minutes when they scored the third goal and at this moment I think the psychology
00:40of the game changed because when you can hope something is difficult and the substitution
00:49for me don't change the things too.
00:51You said after the Everton game that it wasn't a reason to abandon your ideas and actually
00:57to reinforce them. Is that how you feel after tonight as well, that you need time to get
01:03your ideas across and reinforce them, not to move away from them?
01:07Yeah, I think you saw how we want to play during 60 minutes, 65 minutes this time, last time
01:17it was 45 minutes. Now the next game I think we will be able to play the entire game in
01:23the
01:23way we decided and that's why we need to continue to work. We know that's a process, we know we
01:31are late in our preseason and that's why we need to continue in the same line but with more efficiency
01:38because in our two games we have a lot of opportunities and we don't score too much.
01:45You conceded six goals in the opening two games, are you concerned by your defensive vulnerability
01:52and what do you think you need to do to address that?
01:56I think it's general if you want, because we decided to play in a certain shape. I think
02:07we play as we decided but when we did less, if you want, it was really difficult to keep
02:22our idea and aim. That's why I did the substitutions and I thought that the things will be better
02:36because some player was a little bit tired at this moment but the thing didn't change and that's
02:43a problem.
02:45No Jean-Philippe Mateta tonight, was that due to injury?
02:47Yeah, he injured two days ago at the end of the session with individual work. That's a crazy thing
02:59but we can lose him maybe for at least four weeks.
03:20I could speak about that but I don't want to find excuses. You know, it's the same for everybody. We
03:34have to deal with that. We know that.
03:35Some players came and we are happy with them. Now we have to be sure that and you have to
03:46be sure too that in four days the team will be better as today.
03:55Hi Pierre, congratulations. May I just ask about the nature of Jean-Philippe's issue? Was it what?
04:03It's a muscular issue.
04:04Muscular issue. And also were you quite used to seeing Daniel Munoz starting? He was on the bench today. Do
04:09you have any explanation for that as well?
04:11It's a sports decision. Yeah. A sports decision? Yeah, my decision. Okay, thank you. Thank you.
04:23Just before the game you were sort of standing on the touchline and just watching things going on. I just
04:28wondered what you were thinking about in that moment during the warm-ups before kick-off. What was going through
04:35your head and what were you thinking?
04:37I was really focused on the play and the game, you know, because I have to discover the atmosphere, but
04:44I'm not here for tourists. I'm here to work and to work better than I did today.
04:52Because like I told you, I'm ambitious and I want that the team play better than we are able to
04:59play in all the games. That's why I was really focused on how to play.
05:05And how to be in the shape that we decided.
05:11Thank you. And the last one from the gentleman at the back there.
05:23Can I do it in French or not?
05:26Thank you, Coach.
05:27You said, you had a few days ago that Ryan Cherki could do things that we could imagine.
05:32It could be a god.
05:33What did he prove today in front of you?
05:36I think that if you ask all the people who were at Stade and even more all the players who
05:41were on the ground,
05:42actually, he delivered a very high level performance.
05:47And even if I've subed the consequences, I'd like to thank him because he really delivered a great match.
05:57And it was his first title because he was in the game last week.
06:01So I think that today, there will be more and more arguments to start the match.
06:18You know, I'm always happy to come back or go to Lyon.
06:27But in all cases, today, and as it has been in the past, especially in the last season,
06:34I know that it's an opponent and that we need to deliver a good match there to have a good
06:41result.
06:41Because in this competition, we have the ambition to qualify for the next round.
06:47Thank you very much everyone.
