00:00First of all, can you tell us a bit about Haaland's injury and also what was the game plan?
00:06What was your intention to get from the game without being able to use Erling?
00:15The game plan was extend the game plan. Erling yesterday tried to training for the last action against Newcastle, the last minutes
00:24apparently with the images we have done is fine, but
00:28it was discomfort walking and when for example with the stirs and
00:34And we spoke yesterday this morning. I said I'm not ready. I don't feel good. I'm not ready
00:39So what that's happened, and we try the plan it was
00:43extend the result that we we brought from from Manchester as long as possible and of course we
00:50considerable sore late I injured from John and a little bit what happened this season and
00:56We could not defend well the the movement that
00:59He react in my pace
01:02You know from being a stop and attacking the space. We didn't defend and it was a bit more difficult, so but
01:09the best in one
01:11They deserve it
01:13We make always you have done a good
01:15The group of stage in in Champions League seasons arriving finals and winning and losing but semi-finals quarry finals
01:23We have really well, but this season in all competition. We have not been good and
01:28I have the feeling that the previous season the fourth time we were better than them in the previous three
01:34but this time they have been better and learn and this is the
01:39The benchmark in this competition that team the physicality is a team
01:44I have my feeling that when we play against them every season I've been better
01:47But this season is better than because they can run like always I've done with the pillows up front
01:52But they can make a long positions when they may high-pressing
01:57he's dynamic and movement when we defend deep solidarity defend really well, so
02:04Yeah, they deserve it. Let's learn and what you have to do is accept it and and move on
02:12Yeah, I pep just sort of wondering about your own emotions
02:16how you're feeling to be knocked out of Europe now, and you sort of
02:21You touched on a bit, but how you reflect on the campaign as a whole because the group was difficult even before this game
02:27I mean, where do you feel? It's all gone wrong?
02:29No, I feel I'm
02:32It's okay. It's acceptor the reality they were better and so
02:36That's football you can compete sometimes when the previous season when we were out playing outstanding
02:41There was a bit hurts more. I would say that for example today, so I
02:46was born in the
02:48Always I ask
02:50For my teams or for football is difficult to say or alas the team who deserve
02:55Should win all the time and football isn't pretty was not only sports that cannot happen that time happened in the past did that happen?
03:02so it's accepted and
03:05It's a reality reflect. How is our team in good things? We do because in terms
03:11That in games like like for example, Newcastle that the physicality they have is extraordinary
03:17Everybody knows how many castle good team they are we are able to control them and do it
03:21And this is what I wanted don't let them run much have a long positions in the moment
03:26We can punish them. I happen to maybe of course it was at the end of the game
03:29They were not much focus the last 5 10 15 minutes in the game
03:33But we we have more alone position, but we didn't thread much
03:37They defend really deep in the middle block really well in the duels
03:41They are fantastic with and without the ball and when that's happened. It's just to accept it
03:47like
03:49With with the defeat that the manner of the defeat and how could you said Real Madrid are?
03:55Or more can this Manchester City team?
03:59Does it need to be rebuilt or can these players?
04:03Build together and get that we have time we have time to think about it now. It's easy to say it you know but after that
04:11It's not the point so it was a game like again
04:14You know that to choose to three and at home. It was hard to swallow to bring the result here
04:19It's not easy, but even we will result. I know how they are able they are good, so
04:25and
04:26And with time the team the club and everyone is going to you know to accept what it is
04:33But now we have 30 40 games for the Premier League to try to next season to be here and to improve
04:39So nothing is eternal
04:41So we have done nothing
04:44So we have we have been unbelievable
04:47Unbelievable and and we have to try step-by-step to to get better than from today
04:54Yeah, absolutely, that's that's your goal now absolutely so we cannot win the Premier League and
05:01And if a cow of course is there, but we are in the Champions League now
05:04We have 30 games and we have to be top four top five. I don't know will be the
05:09The there to try to be here again, yeah, of course
05:15Pep you've had to do this already on a number of occasions, but how do you lift this group you talk there about?
05:21Premier League qualified for the Champions League because obviously you have a massive game
05:25Coming up at the weekend against the team. That's the top of the table. No now is is you know the Champions League is competition
05:32that is nice, but
05:34You have not been good to know not just today so all all the competition so the problems have I was not able to find
05:41the stability
05:42You know to bring the games along along you happen many times primarily today the game so we want okay
05:48Try to you know to defend. I was expecting in the first minutes Madrid be more aggressive. They first the first action. They were there and
05:56And try to you know to extend the game, you know be longer than to happen
06:01It's not easy. You know after one five minutes and after second goals early. It's not easy to to get back
06:07Take some questions in Spanish, please guys over here
06:10Hola, babe. Green. Hi pepper. I can you tell us ABC?
06:15Some last in the last eight seasons you've won six Premier Leagues
06:19You have left your footprint in English football. What reading can you do?
06:25Why you why does it this doesn't happen? Sorry what this doesn't happen in Europe?
06:31Maybe you've said that maybe the best team doesn't move on. Maybe that could make the difference between
06:37Winning Premier League and not doing that in Champions League. What's your opinion about it? I
06:44Disagree I think that
06:48We were not in Europe 12 years ago, I don't think that we've been amazing in Europe in the last eight seasons sometimes with
06:55left because of some details we've been knocked out because of that but
07:00This is very very emotional competition, but I can't
07:04Have any well first year Monaco and knocked us out and every single year. We've been very close
07:12And I think that well it's difficult maybe to to say this or maybe it's difficult for you to understand
07:18But we've done very well in the previous years against real Madrid. We've been very close
07:24We've played
07:26Amazing games against them, but we didn't move on we didn't we didn't go through
07:32We've have we've had very good seasons, but they've been better
07:36So we have to wish them luck, but of course I'm a Barcelona supporter
07:40I would prefer that this was not was not the case, but we have to accept it when the team is better
07:48You have to accept it and you have to congratulate them hi pep good evening and Tom man I'll get okay, and I said
07:57You've said that real Madrid is better. What did you like from real Madrid?
08:00What was better compared to previous years maybe even issues with them, but pay a sense you about Verde
08:05What do you like of this Madrid compared to previous seasons?
08:09Well the best thing that it has it's that they have a very good dynamic their individual quality is very good even with
08:15Arrivals next to them they have the capacity of keeping the ball and to give continuity that was a little bit difficult for them
08:20on the previous seasons it was
08:23More difficult in terms of transitions now. They are able to hurt you and they are able to score goals with passings
08:30three strikers
08:31Like for example world bowling game is amazing in every sector so they get in touch in that area
08:37So if they pass a long ball
08:39They get the second ball, and if they get it you are totally exposed because they have the ball
08:45It is a team that well the feeling that I had in the previous years is like well
08:49Maybe we can this this this and that well this year. I think that I have the feeling they've grown
08:57And not only they do
09:00Some things very good. They do many many things good
09:04So much of it from getting a corporate life for El Partidazo. Real Madrid has been better in both games
09:11This has been acknowledged
09:13maybe
09:14If they play at this level that maybe they are favorite
09:18team to to win this competition
09:21They're always are one the favorite teams
09:23But of course there are other teams that have to well that are doing a very good and having a very good season
09:29But they always are favorite
09:30I think that they will be in this competition and there are other teams that are playing very well
09:36Liverpool for example has had a very good season up to now
09:40Barcelona is amazing
09:43Paris Saint-germain with a Luis Enrique has
09:45Taken has taken a great leap forward, but of course they are one of the favorite teams. Thank you
