00:00 Come here.
00:01 Anybody want to kick us off for Sundays?
00:02 We'll do a few Sundays, then go into Mondays.
00:03 Roberto, what were your thoughts on the game and how it turned out?
00:04 I was hoping to see a bit of a change in the way we played.
00:05 I think we were a bit too aggressive, I think.
00:06 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:07 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:08 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:09 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:10 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:11 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:12 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:13 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:14 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:15 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:16 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:17 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:18 I think we were a bit too aggressive.
00:34 We can speak in two parts of the game.
00:37 In the first part, there was a chance to play against City because when City played like
00:54 the first half, it's difficult for Brighton, but for everyone.
01:02 In the second half, we played better.
01:05 I think we played with more energy, with more courage, with more personality.
01:13 We kept order on the pitch, especially without the ball.
01:21 I think we had two, three chances to score again.
01:28 Yes, this is the worst news, the worst thing today.
01:46 I think we can lose Solimard for a long time and Welbeck, I don't know, is a muscular problem.
01:57 This season is different.
02:00 We are playing a different sport this season.
02:03 We are losing too many players.
02:05 I think we are not ready to compete in this competition and we are adapting.
02:15 It's tough because we played against Ajax a crucial game without Stupanjan, Lamptey,
02:29 Marts, Welbeck, I think, Cuglianciso.
02:35 But it's important the improvement.
02:41 I think today we improved that we can play with more courage and with more personality
02:49 if we want to compete against City.
02:53 Because if we play with courage, with personality, with more energy, we can play like second
03:02 half.
03:03 It's sad if we play like in the first half, timid, shy.
03:16 I want to play with personality.
03:18 Lose the game?
03:19 Yes, we can lose.
03:20 Yes, we can lose.
03:21 It's not a problem if we lose 6-1.
03:25 But I want to see personality, energy like in the second half.
03:32 But it's a way because we are improving, we are becoming bigger.
03:44 We compete in European competition for the first time in our life.
03:52 For it I am positive.
03:54 I have big, big confidence in my players.
03:58 For it I am sad for the first half.
04:02 But anyway we were playing against City.
04:07 Because in the Champions League when the big team comes to play against City, it's the
04:16 same as City-Brighton, the first half.
04:20 And this week there's no matches?
04:25 I don't know.
04:26 I don't know.
04:27 I think it's a muscular injury, a marched knee.
04:30 But we have to see tomorrow and Monday.
04:36 I don't know.
04:37 Is it worried it might be like the Croatia?
04:39 No, no.
04:40 I don't know.
04:41 I don't know.
04:42 I know, but I think he can't play on Thursday.
04:46 Andy, do you want to kick us off for Monday?
04:51 Monday.
