00:00Enzo, what are your takeaways from today's game?
00:03A strange game, a little bit, because I think in the first half, unless the first five minutes,
00:09the team was good on the ball and off the ball, but when you start the game conceding
00:14two goals in the way we conceded, it becomes all the more difficult, but then in the second
00:20half more or less it happened the same, but in this moment, as I said many times, we need
00:25to learn things, the mistake we did, the reason why, and try to improve things.
00:30Do you feel like right now in pre-season, if we're going to make mistakes, let's do
00:33it now rather than in the season?
00:35Yeah, absolutely.
00:36Also, I think in the way we want to play, the pitch was a disaster, it was a bit slow,
00:42so probably two of the four goals comes from that, but in this moment it's just, as I said,
00:52it doesn't matter to see things in the way we want to improve and try to avoid some
00:55mistakes during the season.
00:57A great assist from Romelu Lavia, he played well, how good is it to see him performing
01:02to this level, having been out for so long last season?
01:05It's a shame for Romelu that he has been out for a long time, but I know him very well.
01:12We worked together one season, so I know how good is Romelu.
01:16The important thing, like him, for him, but for all the players, is to be fit and hopefully
01:21he can be fit this season.
01:23Does this game allow you to get ready to face Manchester City in a couple of weeks?
01:26How far off do you think we are, roughly?
01:30I just said, hopefully we're going to try to do our best and be ready for that game,
01:36but not only for that game, for the season, even knowing that we started just three weeks
01:43ago, four weeks ago, and between the fly, it's become difficult to work every day to
01:52improve things, but now in three or four days, finally, we come back to England and we can
01:56work a little bit more.
01:57As you mentioned there, one more game left in America, we play it on Tuesday.
02:01How do you feel that pre-season has gone?
02:04Unless I said already many times, we are Chelsea, we don't like to lose games, but in this moment,
02:11the focus has to be to see things improving, getting better, and I'm very happy about that.
