00:00What about Jadon Sanchez? Obviously he was not selected in the squad last week.
00:04Is he back and available for selection?
00:06Do you expect him to be involved in the squad this weekend?
00:09We will see. We have a squad and I hope we will have a squad with double positioning
00:19when we go into the season after the 1st of September.
00:23That means also that you can't select all the players for a game,
00:27but we need all the players throughout the season,
00:30because this will be a season of the survival of the fittest.
00:33Of course we have to manage it, but also the attitude of the players is very important.
00:39Sometimes they will be disappointed, but they have to deal with it,
00:43because you don't win with 11 and you win as a squad.
00:50The prizes are divided next May, so until then we need all the players in the squad
00:56and all the players highly motivated to contribute.
00:59That is also not an expectation, it's a demand from the club and from me as a manager for the squad.
01:08The squad and the team is always more important than every individual.
