00:00You're staying in Manchester rather than going home.
00:03I know you had a busy week of travelling last week.
00:05What are the pros and cons of not going back home?
00:08Because, again, I guess relaxing and recovery is good,
00:12but they're not getting home to families, it'll be a bit of both of them.
00:16Yeah, there are always pros and cons, but I think you have to see the wider picture
00:19and in the end we have now five away games in a row.
00:23So, we travelled a lot already the last few days,
00:28travel to Jablonek, travel back, travel to Liverpool, travel back.
00:31So, I think when you travel too much, then you also lose a lot of energy.
00:35Of course, we want to give the players as much time as possible with the families,
00:40especially in these moments.
00:41I think family is the best that you can have
00:43because spending time with the loved ones is always important.
00:47But on the other side, we also try to be a family for the players.
00:51We also try to stick together in these moments
00:54and I think it's also a big pro that we can connect with the players,
00:58that the players can connect with each other,
00:59that they are not alone in their own apartments
01:03because I think we shouldn't underestimate
01:05that not every player has their family around.
01:08Also in Brighton, there are some players who are alone,
01:11so I think there we can really build a connection with the players.
01:15The players can speak to each other, they can analyse the game with each other,
01:18we can speak with the players and therefore we try to make the best out of it.
01:22We try to keep focusing on the connection we want to have on and off the pitch
01:26and we see it more as a great opportunity that everyone is here together.
