00:15hey guys thanks for your patience we'll start with the broadcast section that's
00:18got no embargo followed by an embargoed section for 10 30 p.m tonight no live
00:22tweets during the broadcast section please and use the microphone provided
00:26good afternoon do you want to just bring us up to date first of all with all your injury news
00:32who's in who isn't any new additions anyone back
00:42no we are all available to play normally
00:50medicine started yesterday with us but the other players are good good condition
00:59savio back
01:00talk to us about one of your deadline day deals in terms of mudrick
01:08um you described him in the past as being like a son to you and he said you are his
01:14footballing
01:14father you also said that he had the ability to one day win the ballon d'or how good do
01:22you think
01:22he still is how important is that relationship that you've got to get him to where he wants to go
01:28and just finally can you give us a timeline of when he might be fully up to speed and available
01:33to actually play given that he hasn't played for most two years
01:36the second
01:42but i don't know how many times he needs to to be available to start the game one part of
01:51the game i
01:52think is already uh is ready uh right now to to to play 20 15 30 minutes and the
02:02first the first question about mudrick uh we spent a very particular season together
02:09in shaktar when the world started we were together and when i um when i spoke about the ballon d
02:19'or
02:19i was very clear maybe my english is not so good but i was very clear because
02:28i was speaking about the potential of the player the potential of the player
02:37can can be the same can respect the the prediction or not until now he had he has had
02:48many problems the last problem the suspension of what he what was the problem but by the end
03:01the potential was clear is clear and now his challenge is to respect all his qualities because
03:12he's uh a great player he has to to to to feel this season to leave this season in a
03:21in a right way not
03:23too many pressures but anyway is is the right moment for him to show uh all people things because if
03:33chelsea
03:34paid 100 million four years ago i think they they they brought a lot of big big players no and
03:44to spend
03:45the one 100 million i think they thought very well about the qualities of mudrick to check what you said
03:54at the beginning you reckon you could get 15 20 minutes out of him now so there's a chance that
03:58he could be
03:59in the squad i think is uh is uh he's uh he's ready to play part of the game
04:07i think so and talk to us about another player that is still here at the moment but may well
04:14not
04:14be here come this evening where are you with richarlison situation and what did you make of the way that
04:22a lot of it was played out quite publicly on social media i think richarlison he decided everything's alone
04:34he spoke with me at the beginning of the preseason he told me he his idea was to he decided
04:43was to to
04:44live and in the end we we we go to bring another we went to bring another striker
04:53and like i said at the beginning of the preseason i want to keep the player just the players they
05:00want
05:00to stay with uh with uh with uh proud with uh with the right uh passion to stay here and
05:10then for
05:10everything's uh other problem uh it's not my business it's not my job it's uh responsibility of the club
05:21nothing more i can't say nothing because i didn't decide anything
05:29the message of richarlison from the beginning of this season was has been very clear
05:37i accepted them that and uh nothing for me nothing so to clarify you don't expect him i mean how
05:47far
05:48down the line is he to go and do expect him to be here say tomorrow after the turkish deadline
05:52shots
05:53this evening i don't know i don't know if uh if um if there is an offer from the turkey
06:01i don't know if
06:02uh the club accept this offer i know there was an offer before the end of the the transfer market
06:14closed
06:15uh and and he didn't accept but uh but for me nothing changed
06:24good to see you um back to michael modric um that relationship you had with him how special was it
06:31on
06:31the pitch off the pitch and why did you decide that now it's the time to reunite especially with the
06:38young player i try to to give my best to help them to to to stay close with them also
06:45with the older
06:46players but like i said in in ukraine it was a very very emotional season now because uh we were
06:56building a great team and when there was the war started everything finished so we we kept we keep
07:08we kept in in touch with him and with the other players now nothing is a is a normal player
07:17like
07:18uh bander then like another player if he deserve uh he he will play or uh or or or no
07:26we we have to see
07:27the the physical condition first of all and then the the how he can adapt in a new team in
07:36a new club in a new
07:37in a new maybe in a new style of play after the new castle game we spoke about the mentality
07:46aspect
07:46that you want to improve how do you sense the mentality for this weekend and also the confidence
07:50levels of everyone in the dressing yesterday we started with all players yesterday was the first
07:57uh session with uh complete squad uh but i think anyway we are able to make results even we started
08:11yesterday and then step by step we have to improve in the mentality we have to improve in all part
08:19of
08:19the football you're facing nottingham forest this weekend a very strong a very physical side how are
08:26how are you hoping to cope with the challenge of a good good team they played in a clear very
08:32clear style
08:33of play like like crystal palla last season like enter frankfort frankfort
08:46many years ago and they play well they have a good player but also
08:53so tottenham has a very good players
09:04just one more charles and obviously if he's not in your squad can we presume he's not training with your
09:10squad either no but he he decided everything
09:16he thinks no me no the club so it's not the the question you have not to ask me this
09:29question because
09:29i i i i didn't decide i was not responsible to to this situation
09:42i've got a lot of players now that have got that bit of magic kind of wingers and attackers that
09:47can
09:47beat a man i saw oliver glasner's press conference he mentioned that it's it's easier to prepare for a
09:53coach like you because you've got this very clear set style of play and the patterns are quite he said
09:58obvious but surely if you've got all these players that can produce that bit of magic it's not that easy
10:04to
10:04prepare
10:15i don't know
10:22i don't know that i no comment the the other coaches interview
10:32um i was gonna ask you about matthews fernandez as well i mean there's kind of a lot of excitement
10:37about how good he can be how high his ceiling is i mean how good can he be and also
10:40where is his
10:41fitness at right now i think matthews fernandez the last game played a good game he can play better
10:49i think he can play in different positions for example in this moment i think
10:59rodrigo betancuri is very important for this team no because uh is uh is the right player to give a
11:08balance to to to to to to keep the order on the pitch he has experience uh uh and so
11:16we we try to
11:17play with uh matthews number 10 matthews started in his career as a number 10 and then last season
11:25played one of two midfielders in but it's 2004 very young i think also for him is very very important
11:37in this moment because he is understanding the new club understanding the new coach
11:44the new environment and so we have to to give time because uh like bergval like archie gray
11:54like savinio because savinio is is 2004 is the future of this club
12:01george to finish the section please hi roberto um you said you haven't made a decision with richard
12:07awesome but it was your decision to leave him out of the premier league squad announced yesterday
12:12no it's not my decision is that this is the normal decision you have yet because if you want if
12:19you
12:19don't want to stay here i don't want to keep in the press conference go out you have the freedom
12:26to go
12:26out no if you don't want to stay why i have to keep you on the list why you have
12:32to stay i'm not vinay i'm
12:34not the sport director i'm the coach and i would like to work with the people angry if they don't
12:42play
12:43but happy to stay in this club and i just working for my club the players they don't want to
12:50stay
12:52it's not my problem the price on the transfer market is not my problem you have to speak with
12:59the club but it's not right when the player want to live and the club don't want to to to
13:11sell
13:13but wasn't lucas bergval a similar situation where it felt like he wanted to leave yes but yes but after
13:2010 days in transfer in the preseason he came to stay and his his agent as well went to joan
13:29lang to
13:30say lucas is happy to stay and lucas show me he want to stay and i would like to play
13:39with him i would
13:40like to put the the focus on him because he's another big big in terms of potential of the the
13:48player he's
13:49now and another big player and just finally um after the newcastle game you said with sandro tanali that
13:57he wasn't at the right physical level he wasn't at the in the best condition can i ask why that
14:02is
14:02because he's had no world cup he played a lot of games in in the summer and it feels like
14:07he was one
14:08of the few that might be ready yes and he started very well the the game for example with chelsea
14:14or
14:15fennheim i think it can happen also the the the time maybe he needs more time to to understand
14:25a new club i remember in the first season in milan he see milan the second season they won the
14:32scudetto
14:33seria but the first season he suffered
14:38and then in the second season hopefully we want to play in a good level
14:47already in the first season but maybe for a new player that is different not the
14:54the new environment the new dressing room
15:01okay we'll end the broadcast section then move on to the embargoed section for 10.
15:04so
15:04you
