00:0030 p.m. tomorrow let's start with Carl
00:02Oh yes
00:04Earlier you mentioned that the team has to reduce it
00:11and after you go to the Lyons
00:13you said the sport is lacking in characteristics
00:16are you going to share the sort of thing
00:19that you're trying to get this sport to learn
00:21that perhaps is not there yet?
00:23No, I will not share too much
00:24but you can understand
00:28when I say characteristics
00:29it's players that play more inside than outside
00:32that small things, even the foot
00:34it's really important in the position that Garner played today
00:37as a right hand
00:39to have a left foot can change the way you play
00:42to have some wingers that are more offensive than defensive
00:50can change the way we play
00:51so these kind of things that we are going to try to do in the future
00:56it's going to take time
00:57it's not going to be one summer or whatever
01:00so I was just talking about that
01:03and then the weakness
01:04you can see the game
01:05we have so many problems
01:07even winning these kind of games
01:09you can see during the game
01:10we have a lot of things to improve
01:13what are you going to do now in the Premier League?
01:17are we just not going to see Bruno and Harry
01:19or your team players
01:19for the next few games
01:21or what will they be?
01:23I don't know how many games are
01:24game time before
01:24they have to play third and a final
01:26no, they will play
01:27because sometimes it's better to play
01:29what I will protect
01:31is the players that can get an injury
01:33for example Bruno
01:35or the last game before Tottenham
01:38but we moved the game to Friday
01:40Chelsea
01:41so we'll have time to recover
01:43we want to be competitive also in Premier League
01:46Bruno doesn't have the problem of any injury
01:51but Harry has
01:54so we'll have to manage that
01:56but they have to play
01:57and it's better to play than to stay out
02:00yes, I was consulted
02:13and again, I already spoke about that
02:16we cannot say nothing after this season
02:20so we need to help the club
02:24because the club wins some money
02:26we are going to connect with our fans
02:30around the world
02:30and that is important
02:31especially when we lose
02:33and we disappoint our supporters
02:36during this tough season
02:39so I think it's the least we can do
02:41and we are going to take all the team
02:44young kids also
02:45we'll have the staff there
02:46we had a lot of changes in the staff
02:50so we are trying to build something as a family
02:52I think it's also a good thing
02:54so we tackle the same environment as well
02:56yes, yeah, yes
02:58I don't know
03:11I expect, for example, like I said
03:14some players, we have some doubts
03:17that they will recover
03:18they will push forward a little bit
03:20and we have to manage that
03:21not to take the risk
03:23and to have big issues
03:24of course they will fight for the places
03:26they will be ready, excited
03:28and that is the good thing
03:29not just the final
03:30but also to prepare the games of Premier League
03:32with something in our mind
03:34that we can win
03:35and it's going to be massive
03:36I don't have that in me
03:43I always push forward
03:45but of course I will try to manage
03:47everything
03:48they don't need a lot of load now
03:50so the trainings are going to be
03:52soft in that department
03:54but of course they will push each other
03:56what will you look for
04:04from these last three league games now
04:06because everybody will
04:07assess your season
04:10based on what happens
04:12in the final
04:13you win it
04:15and finish 16
04:16and it won't back to
04:18and you lose it
04:18and you finish 15
04:20and it's terrible
04:21what are you looking for
04:23we cannot save nothing
04:26from Premier League
04:28but I think it's a good thing
04:30for them
04:31we will not have
04:34a lot of trainings
04:35they will fight for the place
04:37in the final
04:37in these games
04:38I think we
04:39against Brentford
04:41we had some mistakes
04:42that I felt that
04:44some of our players
04:46were thinking about this game
04:48so we have to manage
04:51to manage that
04:52but we also have to acknowledge
04:54that we are Manchester United
04:56and we need to win games
04:58also in Premier League
04:59and we have to use every game
05:02to improve
05:02even to prepare the final
05:04but especially to prepare the future
05:05last question
05:06yeah we are trying to do our best
05:24but I agree
05:25we can do better
05:26and when you
05:29again
05:30I don't have nothing to say
05:32about the criticism
05:33because we deserve it
05:34if we cannot
05:36accept everything
05:37in this kind of season
05:38I think we are in the wrong business
05:41and I have fully acknowledged that
05:43and I agree
05:43with all the critics
05:45but in this moment
05:46I think it's really clear
05:47and we have to be smart
05:49and we have to take a risk
05:50and we have to take the risk
05:52to get a lot of critics
05:54from everybody
05:55because the standards of
05:56Roy Keane
05:57and all these guys
05:58are really high
05:59but I have to make a choice
06:00what is the best for the club
06:03not what is the best for me
06:04and I make a choice
06:06in this moment
06:07I'm going to save
06:08and try to save
06:09all the players
06:09because it's really important
06:11for us to win
06:12the final
06:13thank you
06:14thank you
