00:06Sorry, I have to let you first now.
00:09Sorry.
00:14We're going to talk about this game and then take a few questions on our Caraba Cup game
00:19on Tuesday afterwards.
00:21So who would like to start?
00:23What pleased you most about that victory?
00:26Was it the spirit of the combat persistence?
00:30We want to keep the spirit but we are aware of our performance, especially in first half
00:36because the mindset of the team was really low and we changed these things in second half
00:44and at the end we come back twice.
00:47It was a good thing because you know we need confidence and points to work more and with
00:58less pressure.
00:59That's why it was really important to win today.
01:02What magic words did you say at half-time to change it?
01:06I'll just be honest with them and spoke to the two players who made the mistake in first
01:10half, JD Convo and Chris Richards and told them that we need them.
01:16We need them with bravery in second half.
01:18They changed the thing and that's really important because it's always better to play
01:24at 11th and at 9th.
01:29Another two goals for a very open game, obviously great to have such a great attacking performance
01:36as well.
01:37Do you just have to accept that that's the way that it's going to be with that attack?
01:44I have to accept the story of today because that was the context of the game but I have
01:50to change things and to improve the way of defending with the players because we were too
01:56much open in first half and not really good coordinated.
02:02That's why they scored the second goal especially but they have a lot of opportunities and we took
02:09the first goal after a mistake in the build-up and we have to improve that too.
02:15That's why today the lesson is free because we won but we are aware of the condition of this victory.
02:22Is there kind of a balance to be had between attack and defence more so than maybe it would
02:28otherwise be?
02:29It depends on the game.
02:30Today it was like this but it's not only about balance, it's about efficiency too in what we
02:37do and we were inefficient in the build-up in first half.
02:43It was a little bit better in second half.
02:46I think our two sixes didn't touch the ball in first half.
02:49That's why there's a problem in our play.
02:51It was like I told you better in second half but we have a lot of things to improve.
02:58We have a new player.
03:01We have to integrate them.
03:02We have to keep their talent and to put that with the global team and game after game it
03:09will be better.
03:10We play on Tuesday.
03:11That's why I'm really happy with that because we need to play to improve.
03:18Congratulations.
03:20Still things to improve but just how important is it to get up zero points and get that first
03:26win at this football club?
03:27You know the more important thing for our guys to have petrol and the petrol is the victory.
03:37When you have three points you are in confidence, you are happy, you enjoy on the pitch and when
03:43you have the pressure you don't take initiative.
03:45That's why it's really important to win, especially in our situation because we lost the two first
03:50game and today our opponent is in the bad situation.
03:55We were in the same situation before the games but I just want to give them my hope because
04:04I understand the situation.
04:05How satisfying is it when you send on one of your new signings and three minutes later
04:11he scores the winner?
04:14I don't like to say that because it's because of Tyrik.
04:19If he was not tired maybe Ben Chilwell will not go on the pitch.
04:25That's why Tyrik was the man of the match.
04:27He scored two goals and was tired to put the third goal with the substitution.
04:33It's not about me.
04:37You need a bit of luck being a manager obviously and your team were under a lot of pressure
04:41in this game and then the game kind of changed with that second goal.
04:46Did you feel that after that the tight turn for your team?
04:52Yeah, it's always an emotional situation but we have to deal with that and if we are not
04:57able to manage this kind of situation when the opponent score a goal you lose the game.
05:03That's why we can't change the things and all the players have to be convinced that it's possible
05:11and we need to give more because we didn't give what the game expected during the first half.
05:22We have to change things and the second half was really not perfect but in the mindset we were really
05:29strong
05:29and sometimes it's important to win like this because the context of the game is like this.
05:34Thank you, Rachel.
05:36Congratulations. Does this feel a bit of a weight off your shoulders personally?
05:41No, no, no, no, no. It's not about that. You know, I'm really focused on how we play and how
05:48we can win,
05:49how we should play and how we should win. That's why I'm only focused on that pressure.
05:56I know the job. I was sacked from Lyon. I have a success in Lens. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's
06:05not good.
06:05But you can come to every training and you will see me. I just want to work to help the
06:14team.
06:29It's always a nice story when it's happened like this and especially with this guy because, you know, he's really
06:35shine.
06:36Everybody loves him in the dressing room and it's a good sign for the players from the academy because it
06:44gives away.
06:46And some of them train with us this week and maybe we will need them in our games because they
06:56have opportunities to come
06:58and they have to take it. I saw a lot of players from the academy during the pre-season.
07:04Now I have a good idea of their level and their potential to be with us. But Tariq is a
07:12good example.
07:13And maybe sometimes you have to be in the mirror, if I can say that, with what he did.
07:28I think it's not really bad, but we have to wait and see the...
07:34the test. But that gives the opportunity to Jorgen to come on the pitch with a good mentality.
07:44And I just want that Eddie came back as quickly as possible.
08:00You spoke about Dean first? Yeah. OK. I told them during the halftime, the back-to-hand keepers is the
08:10beginning of all, the beginning of the play, the beginning of the confidence, the beginning of how we feel together.
08:17And I think we were in a bad situation in the first half with our back three. Two players who
08:24were in difficulties. They struggled a lot offensively and defensively.
08:28But Dean, at this moment, gave a good sign to his teammates and said, you can count on me.
08:42I just wonder what is your secret to never losing two games in a run? I think three times in
08:48Lyon happens.
08:49In the first game, two games in Lyon, better this part of the season. And you said you had some
08:54secret as to why you've never...
08:58I have the Mercato Hill. Yeah, it's really a difficult period for me because I don't like the mindset of
09:10the team and the club in this moment because all is open.
09:13And I like to be closer and I like to know who I will work. And I think when you
09:26have a player who is 100% here, it's easier to work with him.
09:31I think Roberto Dezerbi spoke about that, about his list, and I agree with him.
09:37I agree with you.
09:39I agree with you.
09:39I agree with you.
09:40I agree with you.
09:42I agree with you.
09:42As 0-0-6 in first half, they didn't touch the ball because we played really bad offensively, but it
09:50was better in second half.
09:52And you know, this kind of players, they can do the worst half time of their life and maybe the
09:58best of their life in second half because they have talent.
10:01And we know how he is and we need him at his best maximum of time.
10:11OK.
10:12All right.
10:12That's the end of this.
