00:00Nico O'Reilly hasn't been named in the latest England squad.
00:03Does that surprise you or do you have any concerns about his form at the moment?
00:07No, with Nico it's quite easy.
00:10Since we started the season, between his back,
00:14if you remember before Coventry game, some more problems.
00:20Unfortunately, it's not 100 per cent.
00:24In the last game, I really liked him.
00:27I think he was playing a very good game.
00:31This is what we need from Nico.
00:33Just keep him fit because we know how good he is.
00:36And no doubt that in the future, we'll be again with the international team.
00:40But I suppose he will now get the opportunity to have a little bit of a break.
00:44Can that help him?
00:46Yeah, it's what he needs.
00:48Also, you know, to use that break to do the right things in terms of therapy
00:52and these kind of things and be 100 per cent after the international break.
00:59Hi, Enzo.
01:00Phil Foden also has been left out by Thomas Tuchel.
01:04How far away do you, since he is, having worked with him every day from that level,
01:09his best, that best that we've seen him be a first-choice starter for England
01:13and, of course, for yourself?
01:14He's doing well.
01:15He's doing well, to be honest.
01:17Now, the reason why he has been left out from the international team,
01:24I don't know, but we are happy with Phil.
01:27We know that he can give much more, we know that.
01:29But slowly, slowly, you know, I said many times,
01:32it's my duty to try to help him, slowly, slowly to be back and be one of the best.
