00:00 Yesterday you were unsure about the timeout, so what did you make of today's handball?
00:10 Yes, he played better but I think he can do more, especially in the first half.
00:26 We had a doubt from yesterday, but we spoke with him this morning and he said he's ready to play.
00:36 But we know Mitoma and today he had a big pause sometimes, and it's not 100% physically, maybe mentally,
00:45 but for us as a player it's very important always.
00:50 He played better, he had big chances and we are happy about his match because he gave us his disponibility to play.
01:00 For example, Son arrived and played the second half. It's the same because when you travel you stay one month with another team.
01:07 It's not easy, not for physical but for mind. But we are happy.
01:14 He's a very important player. Also for Ansu Fati, it's not easy for him to play the first match after two or three months.
01:25 He has a little bit of a difficulty, but for us he's another player who can help us in the future.
01:40 Can you tell us about Jack Ingerswood?
01:45 Jack Ingerswood yesterday in the last training session, he took a kick on the foot.
01:52 I don't know if today he had a scar or tomorrow, but during a take-off he had another kick.
02:01 Today the medical centre told us it's better not to play and we have to receive the results of the scan.
02:12 We don't know if he's ready next week or not. We are waiting for the next days.
02:17 Roberto, will he be able to take training on Monday?
02:28 Yes, yes. Roberto is able to start to work. I'm happy because this week is very tough.
02:37 This week was tough because it's not a match. It can happen, one coach can be suspended.
02:47 All week wasn't easy and the players worked very well. We are disappointed because they gave something today.
02:59 They deserve a good result. But this is football. Roberto will probably arrive in England tomorrow.
03:09 Today he can't fly. The doctor said it's better not to fly. But from Monday he's on the training ground 100%.
03:17 Thank you.
03:20 Thank you. Sorry for my voice.
03:23 It's OK.
