00:00Hi Pep, you've mentioned about the length of contract, it is a big show of faith by Erling given we obviously know about the charges and we know what people are saying that might happen to the club if that goes wrong.
00:18That is a big statement by Erling and everybody to commit to something when we know...
00:24Absolutely, it is what I said. It is the trust for the club to Erling because you never know what can happen in the next year but the club knows perfectly how professional he is.
00:35His commitment in every single game and every single day to show his talent and of course for him because in 10 years, you never know what is going to happen. It is a long, long time.
00:49In a short career, you always have to say, OK, we will see what happens and he proved what he wanted and the trust I said before was the trust with the club.
01:03You are a manager, it is your job to get more out of players. What can he improve on?
01:11Many things. Of course, the club and the team, myself as a manager, we have to create environment, create a lot of moments that he can intervene in when he is unstoppable because there is the best.
01:31We have to understand the game in general, what happens during the game, what decisions you have to take, you have to make.
01:43I think he is so young, still young and I am pretty sure he is mature that playing games and games and games is going to happen naturally.
