um
but it's in this case now i'm relatively
easy to explain we made two massive
mistakes around the goals that's um
uh
i think one was pretty it was would have
been
so audrey made this super safe in a sec
a second or two seconds before and then
this ball is really flattering really
good shot from
um from willian and um you cannot make
that safe but before that obviously if
you lost the ball that's that's a
problem
um was not the biggest shock it was
justice football and um
like the reaction like the way we played
with
some good stuff was a super intense game
both teams were really running like
mad and um that was clear that it will
be difficult but we had our moments we
had good chances especially the one
where
i don't know who saved the balls
actually a defender or the goalie or
whatever when we shot three or four
times
um
so far the good um away game at chelsea
you cannot expect that you and we never
did by the way we won twice against them
one in penalty shoot and one was 2-1
here which was a tight game as well
um
but then you can see the second one that
that didn't help obviously and um yeah
that was then more bit more difficult to
take again chelsea defended them with
all they had um threw the bodies in um
uh really really physical
yeah and so we couldn't score and they
couldn't score so it's
finish
um the game finished with two nil and
we are out of the competition which is
actually opposite of what we wanted
football can be so much about momentum
are you worried that having had it go
your way for so long it's now three
defeats and forward now look it go it
went our way for so long because we were
just um we were
we defended ourselves anyway so
you usually don't get a lot of chance
against other stuff like this now we
have to admit that in the last three
games we
fall
not sure what was first normally to
atletico but if then we conceded
absolute too many goals that's true
from completely different situations so
it's not one problem but we see that as
well but i'm not worried about momentum
momentum is not something you don't get
as a present you have to get it to keep
it
um and
be nice and gentle that you can keep it
so we will they have always a chance you
have always the chance to get it back no
i'm not concerned about the momentum i'm
um but it's it's football we never
thought it will be easy it will be easy
season it will be an easy period it will
be an easy game tonight nothing it was
always good it will be difficult was
always difficult
we did very well tonight not
good enough in decisive moments and
that's what we have to
accept are you concerned by the
you're not concerned by the momentum but
are you concerned by the performances
perhaps the performance tonight was
completely different to the performance
of watford against what was really bad
tonight it was not bad tonight it was it
was a really
super intense game we made seven changes
i said we knew that it will be intense
that might be made that's why we made
the changes um because we
it was clear a lot of sprints a lot of
spaces in midfield how chelsea plays how
we wanted to play it was clear you need
accelerations constantly they they offer
that constantly it was that's why we had
to make the changes and um we thought we
have to make it um
i don't know i'm not con that
performance tonight um i'm not concerned
about that's football if you make
decisive mistakes
then you lose football games
how are you finding the challenge of
managing the players minutes at this
sort of crucial time of the season with
all of the competitions coming thick and
fast
not that many competitions anymore for
us so exactly two
um
that's probably last week where we have
to manage it so because we had now when
when atletico game is over it was then i
think four games in 12 days if i'm 100
right i'm not sure
where we have to think a little bit
about it but um now it depends so how
far we can go in the chamber if you can
go through or not that's we really don't
know that yet no we are used to that we
are used to managing that and and and
doing it
look it's
god showed so many things tonight
everybody thought wow what a player yes
and then you lose a ball that's a
learning process that's learning you and
you cannot learn it in at home in the
living room you have to learn on the
pitch you have to react on it so that's
how it is
um nico played a super game tonight so
showed obviously that we can have really
a second
fullback coming which helps us massively
for the future
um chucky played a really good game play
we could have used him much more often
so if nico sees him once or twice he was
completely free at the edge when he shot
the crosses more or less and he kind
cannot
um
see him then it would help would have
helped of course so so many good things
adam
running like crazy so many good things
and fabinho that's how it is he had to
play he was the one who had to stay
on the pitch and play the game and you
saw a lot of good things better rhythm
but then you lose that ball and you have
to even experience player have to deal
with it that's football that's how it is
and
we have to
um how always how is that we always have
to deal with this it's not the first
time
look there's huge it's all right the the
numbers are there the facts are that
it's all clear
it's much more easier i
knew that before it's much more easier
to explain uh when you win than when you
explain when you when you lose so
obviously so i have not a lot of um
arguments i cannot say no you want to
try it or you want to drive or whatever
it's you everybody's it's the free world
you can interpret like you want
um
but i can only say i speak about what i
see i see the numbers i know them that's
not cool we don't want to concede that
many we don't it's not that we don't
want to score on them so that's
but it's not
i'm don't sit here and think okay the
way to back to the moment where we can
score or we don't concede is like
100 miles away so it's
little things but the little things make
the difference and we have to to be the
boys are strong they showed so many
times a wonderful reaction now we have
to show this reaction again that's all
guys
just asking on a wider question about
the corona virus are you worried as a
team as a club about the spread of it or
how it might affect you
look what i don't like in life is that a
very serious thing
a football manager
is opinion is important i don't
understand it i really don't understand
it can could ask you you are exactly the
same role than i am so and it's not
important about famous people but famous
people say no you have to we have to
speak about the things in the right
manner not
people with no knowledge
like me talking about something with
people with knowledge to talk about it
and should tell the people do this do
that do this and everything will be fine
or not so and not football managers i
don't understand that politics
coronavirus why me i wear a base cap and
have a bad shave
i'm concerned as much as you may be less
i'm not sure i don't know exactly what
your amount of
ace of being concerned but um
my opinion is really not important
i live on this planet and i want the
planet be safe healthy i wish everybody
the best absolutely but my opinion about
corona is not important if somebody
tells me we play football we play
football because i think smarter people
said we can play football i will not
make the decision thanks guys good very
much thank you thank you very much
