00:00With Mike's new side of the room, we'll set an embargo partly through for 10.30pm this evening.
00:05We'll start with your last one.
00:13The club made a new signing yesterday in Buari.
00:16Is he ready to go into the first team squad straight away?
00:21Yeah, he's ready.
00:24He was working with his former club, so he's fit.
00:31We'll see how long he needs in terms of that adaptation, but for sure he's ready to go.
00:38What are the specific qualities that you see he will bring to your team?
00:43He's quite calm.
00:48He doesn't look 18.
00:50He looks already mature, that is important.
00:55But again, in this case, we need to go slowly because he's very young.
01:04He came from different countries, he needs adaptation.
01:07So no rush for him.
01:09For sure he's going to help us now and in the future.
01:12But again, probably he's very mature being just 18.
01:18Yeah, 18 and it's a big transfer fee, a record transfer fee for an 18-year-old.
01:23Do you think he'll be OK to handle the pressure, the expectation on his shoulders?
01:28Yeah, I think so.
01:31I think so.
01:31Again, he doesn't look 18 and this is important.
01:35And also I think it's my job, also from the club, to try to manage him in the best way.
01:44So don't put pressure on him.
01:47We know that he's young and in his time.
01:52Hi, Enzo.
01:54Ryan Cherky came on Sunday and made an impact.
01:57He came off the bench a lot last season as well.
01:59How do you see his role in the side this season?
02:04Ryan, yeah, he made an impact the other day.
02:09For sure, he's one of the players.
02:13In terms of quality, he's a different player compared to the rest.
02:16Because he can give us, you know, in some moments when we struggle,
02:21but especially in the last third, he can give us quality.
02:24That is what we need.
02:27And it depends a lot also on the game plan, about the opponent they play,
02:32if they play in one way, in the other way.
02:34But no doubt that, again, he's going to help now, in the future.
02:39Even Ryan is still very young.
02:41I think he's 22, 23.
02:44So he's going to help us.
02:46And I'm very happy in the way it's working.
02:49It's quite a young squad now, isn't it?
02:51Have you got enough sort of experience and leaders in that dressing room, do you think?
02:56Yeah, we have.
02:56We have an experienced player.
02:58For sure we have a leader.
03:00Now we need to wait four or five more days.
03:02When the window transfers close, also to see if we can add one or two more captains
03:08to Ruben and Erling, that at the moment are the two captains.
03:12But again, it's a young squad.
03:14And also we have some experienced players.
03:18Anything close between now and Tuesday, do you think?
03:21Anyone close to coming in?
03:23No.
03:24No, no, no, no.
03:25The one that arrived is Ayub, Boadi, and then we'll see in the next four or five days.
03:31Enzo, how important is it that you sign at least one more experienced player for the middle of the pitch
03:37between now and the deadline?
03:39It's not about experienced players.
03:42I've said many times that for me age does not open a closed door.
03:47Depends on how good they are.
03:49You know very well that in my former club we are the youngest squad in the history of the Premier
03:56League.
03:58And here we are in this moment quite young in terms of squad, but we have also players that have
04:07the right experience.
04:11Have you an idea yet how many players you would like to sign?
04:17Again, it's window transfer.
04:19Anything can happen.
04:20We see it's four or five more days to go.
04:23I think it's until Wednesday or Tuesday.
04:25And we see.
04:26But in this moment, for me, it's quite complicated to think about the window transfer.
04:32We have a game in 24 hours, so the focus is more than 24 hours.
04:36But I'm just focused on preparing tomorrow's game that at the end is the most important thing for us.
04:42And can I finish by asking about Omar Mahmouche?
04:45I know last week you said that he hadn't told you he wanted to leave the club.
04:49Obviously still a lot of speculation he's close to joining Tottenham.
04:53What can you tell us about his situation?
04:54Has he told you he wants to leave yet?
04:55Nothing.
04:56I think Omar is set to leave.
04:59He's not done yet.
05:01We are waiting for that.
05:02But Nico Gonzalez left.
05:05Nico Gonzalez left.
05:06Savio left.
05:07And probably Omar is going to leave.
05:11And so you said at the weekend that Mark Ehi was a solution in your midfield.
05:16I'm wondering is he going to continue to be a solution against his old team as well?
05:20We'll see.
05:21It's an option.
05:22We'll see.
05:23For sure the good thing about Mark is that in this moment give us one more option in the middle
05:30in case we need.
05:30And for tomorrow we'll see.
05:33We'll see.
05:33We have a session now in a few hours.
05:36And then we decide for the first eleven for tomorrow.
05:40Josko up front, no?
05:44That's obviously a joke.
05:45About Crystal Palace, they were beaten last weekend.
05:49Obviously you got off to a winning start.
05:50How do you think they'll be in their first home game of the new league campaign?
05:55Palace away is always complicated.
05:57It's always a complicated pitch.
05:59They are a good team.
06:01New manager arrived.
06:03You can see the game that they played in pre-season and also the first Premier League game.
06:08That is quite clear what they want to do.
06:10It's quite similar to Oliver, the former manager.
06:14So no doubt that it's going to be a tough game.
06:19Enzo, is Elliot Anderson fully fit having come off last week?
06:23Yeah, yeah, Elliot is fully fit.
06:25The last week was just for cramp.
06:29Are there any other injury concerns going into tomorrow night?
06:32No, it's still Jeremy's out and Mateus, we see, not still 100%.
06:40And just talking about experienced players and players that might leave,
06:44what's the latest on Jack Grealish?
06:46Do you expect him to go out, perhaps on loan or to leave the club?
06:50Again, Jack is here until the day that he's here.
06:53Again, it's my duty to try to help him, to give us the best.
06:58And then we see in the next four or five days what's happened.
07:02Have you spoken to him about what he wants for the season?
07:05Yeah, I spoke with Jack almost every day.
07:11Certainly more than that for 10.30pm this evening.
07:13We'll start with Jamie.
