00:00It's been a couple of weeks, so I'm going to ask the contract question a little bit differently today.
00:03After Chelsea, Virgil said the discussions are ongoing regarding his contract,
00:08and after the Arsenal game he said,
00:09let's see what happens towards the end of the season.
00:12So when does the contract situation become a problem in terms of your planning for next season?
00:17For me the contract situation could become a problem if the players don't perform as well
00:22as they do at the moment, although of course then it's also not sure
00:29that if they perform not as good anymore that that has anything to do with their contract situation.
00:35At the moment all three of them are in a good place, they all perform really, really, really well,
00:40and there are ongoing discussions between what Virgil said to people he had to talk with.
00:47And that's not me, as you know, I talk to him about other things, and yeah, let's wait and see.
00:53But, yeah, I think all what he says, he's completely right in that he doesn't exactly
00:59know what the future will bring as long as he doesn't sign the contract yet.
01:02And no further update, obviously?
01:04Not from my side, no.
