00:00When we are not winning, I am so, so happy today, so, so happy, thankful, because we know how we
00:12are in the way, how the responsibility we have, and I have, but the players as well, they have their
00:24responsibility,
00:26and the old players, they need to get, to keep our standard high, to show everybody this is the only
00:38way we can achieve the process in our objectives, our targets, and of course, we are improving, improving after Brighton,
00:50after Arsenal, after Hull City,
00:53and today another step forward, collectively, tactically, in our structure, individually, and this victory is through it, and of course,
01:06we must work hard, it's the only way,
01:09and this is the process we must try to set strong, and today we did one very important step forward,
01:21to show it, and be resilient when we were struggling,
01:26we were struggling, but with the sixth player, the impact was good, because again, we recovered, the control of the
01:34game, against one team, here, they are feeling strong, comfortable, confident, and they were pushing,
01:42but really, we did a very complete match, 90 minutes, competing, and of course, very important for this Champions League,
01:52to start with those three points,
01:55hopefully, it gives us confidence, for the next matches, in Premier League, Saturday, Nottingham, in the Carabao Cup, then Tottenham,
02:04before the break,
02:05because now, after this match, we are going to get a side, with this win, with this win, until after
02:15the break.
02:17So, wanting your experienced players to help the new players, how fitting was it that John McGinn scored the first
02:25goal today?
02:26Thank you very much.
02:28Yesterday, we were in a training session, and we were demanding even a training session, playing a small match, we
02:35are lack of goals, and we must even score here goals,
02:39please, each one, be demanding yourself to score here in the training session with the small goals, to try to
02:48show tomorrow as well our wishes,
02:52to win through score goals, and to win through clean sheet, hopefully. And today, we started very well, we started
03:00creating chances, we started as well.
03:02In one match, we needed a lot of duels offensively, running behinds, we were lack of running behinds as well,
03:10the last match in Hull City, and today, we did more,
03:13and we created chances, we have got the box, and we scored goals. Of course, John McGinn, very, very important
03:22goal, and we had chances,
03:25and Nico Jackson, the first goal as well, very important for him. And progressively, getting minutes with some players like
03:34today, Aaron Bissak,
03:35after the injury of Cash, very important, but he was also tied in the middle of 60, this is the
03:40first match after a long time. And again, a new, a good, new match,
03:48played Hemmings, George Hemmings, again, he's improving, and he's really, and keeping 90 minutes in good balance defensively,
03:58and we must try to add more players, the new players in this structure, in this demand, in this process
04:05we are.
04:09It's Nicolas Jackson's first goal for Aston Villa tonight. How encouraged have you been by his performance tonight,
04:14but also in the previous two games as well?
04:19It's passion. And keep working, keep improving, keep adapting, keep understanding our movement, keep understanding as well
04:28our combination with the players, of course. He's a striker, he likes to drop, and sometimes he needs someone running
04:37more than him as well.
04:39And we were pushing him in the last training session, you must try to be the last player running in
04:45behind, because we,
04:47and then when we are going to join maybe Manzambi as well, when they are getting better, Garnacho, Ibrahim, they
04:57can run as well.
04:58And this is the process we have, but now, with the players we have on the field, George is running,
05:04he's running in behind,
05:05George is helping so, so much to run in behind with Jackson. John McGuin, he's not the player with qualities
05:12to run in behind,
05:13but he tried, and he had very good chances in the second half of doing one in behind, fantastic.
05:18Emiliano and Diaz del, he's trying to do. I am so happy with Emiliano and John McGuin, how they are
05:23getting this responsibility.
05:25And then, the new players, of course, must be in the structure, in our demands, understanding everything to play and
05:35get mids as well.
05:36In the second half you seem quite concerned about the substitutions not being ready, was that a problem?
05:43It's not the first time this season it's happened.
05:44Yes, because in the dressing room, the first half we were speaking about some players, they were tied at Kamara,
05:51Aaron Bambisaka, both especially.
05:54And they were pushing, and of course I tried to keep 15 minutes how we were, but when I asked
06:01the players to replace,
06:02they were, with the set pieces, with the individual issues, but I needed, I needed quick, the impact on the
06:13field, and they did it after.
06:18Okay, thanks so much. Thank you.
