00:20James, what disappointed you about your side's performance tonight?
00:25Well, I would say that we have dropped our consistency, our competitive mentality needed
00:35in the second half.
00:38You know that the small details can be decisive, you don't have to give advantage in this kind
00:45of games, where they do with little they get a lot, and credit to them, but it's about
00:5195 minutes, and we have not been able to keep that level throughout these few games in the
01:01start of the season, and it's something that we'll have to do better.
01:04Did tonight show you just how difficult this job is going to be at Chelsea?
01:09Well, we knew that it's a process, that it's still five games, and in a competitive Premier
01:16League, that each game is really hard, and we knew that it was going to be hard, so it's
01:21nothing new.
01:23Javi, Levi said that Chelsea getting bullied at set-pieces, I wondered what you made of
01:27that, and you said it needs to stop.
01:30Well, we need to not just set-pieces in defensive, in duals, in build-up, in control games, and
01:36we concede the first goal, but still you are in the game, and when you lose shape, you are
01:42out of control, you concede in a transition when they do that well, things that we have
01:46worked, so to be able to understand the game, to know what it takes to be competing until
01:52the end, it's something that… it's a process, it takes time for them to feel it, and at the
02:00moment we are not feeling it fully to compete for the whole game.
02:05Sam?
02:06You brought on three teenagers, and it's quite a tough place, especially for 16-year-old.
02:11What were you thinking there, because there were more experienced players on the bench?
02:15Yeah, with 2-0, we brought Maddy, that he has great energy, that at the moment in the
02:25middle we were short of numbers.
02:27The other ones are Gio and Este.
02:30Giovanni and Este are the other teenagers?
02:33Yeah, because they have been trained well, they are part of the squad, so everyone that
02:38is part of the squad, but before we were playing for 75 minutes with a squad, with a team with
02:45experience, and that we have had good things, but not for long enough time to compete for
02:52the better result.
02:55Okay, thank you guys.
02:58Cheers.
