00:00The fans are going to have to suffer, the players are going to have to suffer, can you explain in your mind what that looks like?
00:07Because a lot of people will say those players out there have cost tens of millions of pounds and they are consistently underperforming.
00:16It's hard to explain, we have to acknowledge the moment and not go around the problem.
00:29Everybody here is underperforming, no matter what the circumstances, we are underperforming and we have to accept that.
00:39It's unacceptable to lose so many games for any club in the Premier League, imagine Manchester United.
00:47So it's a really hard moment but we have to continue, we have to continue.
00:54There is no other way, we need to suffer and continue.
01:02You said in the week that you learned more from the Southampton game than this week in general.
01:07After two poor performances, one good result, one bad result, what have you learned about these players?
01:13The opponents are better than us in many details.
01:19That we cannot be consistent, that I am not helping my players in the moment.
01:26So it's a hard moment, you have to acknowledge that we are in a very difficult situation.
01:32We are without all the bad records as losing games at home, losing games in the Premier League.
01:41So we are really underperforming and we need to win games, that's all.
01:50When you say you are not helping the players, what do you mean by that?
01:59I knew that it was going to be hard to put a completely new idea in the moment.
02:07But then when you lose games and you don't have that luck to win three games in a row, it's becoming really hard.
02:16So that's why I'm telling that we are going to suffer, because I will continue to do the same.
02:24So to help my players is to give them the tools to play in this way.
02:29But then without training is really hard.
02:32Then without training and losing games, and you can feel it in the end of the game.
02:36Everybody was changing position, and that is something that I will not see again.
02:42We can lose, but we have to maintain position.
02:45I just want to help my players.
02:48If I want to show to the media or to the fans, I put two strikers.
02:52I didn't put two strikers, because if I put two strikers, it is going to be more difficult for them to understand the way we play.
02:59So I'm just here to try to help my players, but we need to understand that we are breaking all the bad records.
03:08So it's a problem we need to change.
03:29In ten games in the Premier League, we won two.
03:31I know that.
03:33Imagine what this is for a fan of Manchester United.
03:38Imagine what this is for me.
03:40We are getting a new coach that is losing more than the last coach.
03:45I have full knowledge of that.
03:48Like I said, I'm not going to change, no matter what.
03:51I know we can succeed, but we need to survive this moment, because I'm not naive.
03:57I know that we need to survive now.
04:01We are being the worst team, maybe, in the history of Manchester United.
04:05I know that you want headlines, but I'm saying that because we have to acknowledge that and to change that.
04:15So here we go, your headlines.
04:30Do you feel let down by him?
04:35No, no, no.
04:37Why not? Because you yourself have said he was left out for training reasons.
04:41That's his responsibility, right? So that's on him, yes?
04:44Guys, like you said, it's his choice.
04:49I don't want to focus on this bad moment, because in this moment, Rashford is not here.
04:54In the last games that we lost, Rashford was not here.
04:57So I don't want to put this moment on Rashford.
05:01Rashford is out of this moment, because he's not playing.
05:04No matter what, I'm not going to put a player that I don't believe is the best for the team.
05:10It's difficult for your players to take on a new idea.
05:14These are top professionals. How difficult can it be?
05:19Because they're very good players, in theory.
05:22Yes, but they are used to different things.
05:25And then, you already saw in your years of experience,
05:30sometimes you have one team that almost wins the league,
05:33and then the next season is really bad, without confidence.
05:39Our players are really nervous and anxious.
05:42And then, when you go inside the pitch, you remember the last games here.
05:47If I feel it, the players feel it a lot.
05:51The only way is to continue to do the same and to win games.
05:55That's the only way to fix this.
06:16First of all, it's training.
06:19Then, in everything we do, even if the training is small,
06:25it's 10 minutes, 15 minutes, we have to give everything.
06:28And then, we have to be prepared to suffer.
06:33That's the only way.
06:36And then, we have to feel that feeling that we felt against Liverpool.
06:40Losing, losing, losing, losing.
06:42And then, reach a game against Liverpool, and something appears to the players.
06:46We have to feel that every day.
06:48Even when we win two games, we need to have that feeling every day.
06:55But I think in the training ground, during the week,
06:59is the best way to train that thing.
07:17Do you agree with that?
07:18Is it concerning that at the start of the game,
07:21players could switch off so quickly like that?
07:24Yeah, we need to be really focused on the game.
07:27Sometimes, I felt that the team is focusing on a lot of stuff.
07:32Also, because of the moment.
07:34But it's a simple play.
07:36If there is one play that Brighton does,
07:38it's to push the centre-back and the winger makes the movement.
07:42And we knew that before the game.
07:44So, I don't want to point to that specifically.
07:47It's everything.
07:49So, the only way is to work really hard, to win games,
07:53to have time for a new idea, to change things around.
07:59Just on Anaheim, Ruben,
08:00I've seen an outstanding play on Thursday.
08:04Kepley in the game when he put up for him.
08:07But obviously, it was another individual act.
08:10Is it a bit of a concern that you've seen these individual acts
08:15come back into the game after what was a difficult start?
08:20It's like the team.
08:23Ups and downs.
08:24Really ups sometimes, and really low downs.
08:27So, we have to maintain, like you said,
08:29maintain the focus during all the game to try to win games.
08:33That is the only way that we can turn things around.
