00:00We know that a certain amount of points are necessary to stay in and every game, every
00:07second of every game is big for us and that's the Premier League.
00:11It's clear that margins have went against us too often. I think that certainly we haven't
00:16had anything that could resemble luck.
00:18Sometimes I talk about relegation because of that. I think our club needs a shock.
00:30I'm from Italy and we are the best in the world in the mentality. How to win the game.
00:49To my players they are missing these things. But there is a moment you have to be Italian.
01:00For us, all the 2021 games that we are playing are massive. We know that a certain amount
01:16of points are necessary to stay in and every game, every second of every game is big for
01:23us and that's the Premier League.
01:25That is for all the teams to win it or to be in the Champions League, to be in Europe
01:31and also in the relegation zone.
01:33It's clear that margins have went against us too often. I think that certainly we haven't
01:48had anything that could resemble luck in many different aspects this year. But also our
01:53execution compared to the opposition execution hasn't been at the level quite often.
02:10When you have these kind of moments, especially in the big clubs, it's really hard to turn
02:17things around. Especially when you don't have a lot of time to train the basics, to
02:24cope with the difficult moments.
02:26So we have to acknowledge our position, the way you see the league. Everybody can win
02:32everybody. So we have to win games and to focus on surviving.
