00:00So let's start.
00:02Richard.
00:04Hi Enza, what did you make of that?
00:07Were you in the end grateful to Gianluigi Donnarumma?
00:14To be honest, I was really pleased with the win,
00:17and the reason why is for different reasons.
00:20The main reason why is because 9-10 this kind of game,
00:23at the end you finish conceding,
00:25because we kept them alive, I think, in the first half,
00:28finished 1-0, but we could have scored one or two more at least,
00:32and with 2-0 it's a different game.
00:35But the way we suffered together until the end,
00:39defending, throwing, set-pieces, I think was a good one,
00:44and not all the wins are going to be a nice win.
00:49We need some of this kind of win also in an ugly way.
00:54Hi Enza, what happened in the warm-up with Nico,
00:56and why had you decided not to start Fernandes in the first place?
01:01Nico felt something in his back,
01:03doesn't look something serious,
01:05but he was not able to play.
01:08And the reason why Enza was on the bench was just because he arrived two days ago.
01:13I know how frustrating it has been for Enza the last two or three weeks,
01:17so the idea was to give him some minutes, but at the end he played from the start.
01:21I think he was quite good and happy also with this performance.
01:27And so, did we see signs of why you signed Fernandes?
01:32Just because he didn't have to learn the system, he didn't have to learn your methods.
01:38He was straight in and it seemed like he's been here a number of years.
01:41Yeah, it's much more easy when players that you already share time together, you know,
01:48it's much more easy because they know exactly what you want.
01:51And so, we know each other very well, I know how good he is,
01:55and I know that he's going to help the team to win games.
02:00How do you think Illyman and Di did on his debut?
02:03Yeah, I think we had Enzo and Illyman, first game with us.
02:08Then we had Ayub and Ryan Mercado, first game in front of our fans.
02:14That's why I'm saying that for many reasons I'm very happy about today's win.
02:19I think they were all good, but Illy just had two sessions with us,
02:24he needs to understand how to move.
02:26Most of the time he was moving in a wrong way, wrong position,
02:30but again, he needs to learn and for sure he's going to learn.
02:35What was it that Illyman needed to do in the first half when you were saying?
02:40Yeah, when Margui had the ball he was dropping a lot and we don't need that.
02:47We need him in the last third so he can be a little bit more higher.
02:50That space was more for Josko Guardiola to go there.
02:54It's the same thing on this side.
02:56When Kusa has the ball, sometimes Antoine was dropping,
02:59but Antoine has to stretch, that space is for Enzo.
03:02But again, it's normal that with time they're going to learn the way we want them to play.
03:08That's where the goal came from.
03:10Exactly.
03:11Exactly.
03:11Enzo wide and then Antoine receiving behind and we score.
03:15In terms of Elliot Anderson, he got man of the match in the stadium.
03:18I know he's been here longer than some of the other side-ins,
03:21but he's not been here long.
03:22But it looks like he's been here for years, the way he's played.
03:24He seems to always make good decisions, always in the right place.
03:27How impressed have you been with him today, but also generally since he came here?
03:30I'm really impressed, not just as you said, not just about today.
03:33I think he was very good against Palace.
03:36He was also very good against Bournemouth, thinking that he was one week with us.
03:40We changed him for Kramp.
03:42But again, the best thing about Elliot is the day-by-day.
03:45He's asking how we can learn.
03:46We sit with him, one-by-one with you.
03:49We are doing many things with him and he wants to be better.
03:53This is the main thing for any player.
03:55What are you showing him in the videos?
03:57It depends on the ball of the ball, different kinds of things.
04:04Hi, Enzo. How do you assess the strength of your squad now?
04:07Because obviously Niko's got an injury in the warm-up and he's been able to promote Enzo.
04:10Then Enzo gets tied in the second half and Boadi comes on.
04:12You've swapped Foden for Shirky.
04:14There's obviously players that you've not used today.
04:16You must be delighted with just the overall options that you've got.
04:19Yeah, absolutely.
04:20But if you see since the Community Shield final,
04:24we played Community Shield final and then Arsenal played two more games.
04:28and they had five changes in every game.
04:31Two World Cup winners, Merino Zubimendi,
04:36two English players, Edze Madueke,
04:39and the other one I don't remember, I think it was in Capier.
04:41At the end, if you want to be there, you need the option.
04:44Arsenal has option, we have option.
04:46And more teams, they have option.
04:48But it's not just us.
04:50And I'm very happy with the option we have.
04:52That is something important for us if we want to compete.
05:00Hi, Enzo.
05:01Where would you like to see the team improve?
05:03How can you, you know,
05:0578-80 per cent possession, how can you score more goals?
05:08What would you like to happen?
05:10I think first half, we deserve more goals.
05:13We scored one, but we could have scored probably at least one or two more.
05:17The good thing for me is that all the three wins, they have been different.
05:20You know, against Bournemouth, we kept fighting until the end.
05:24Palace, we were very good on the ball and off the ball,
05:27but especially because we took the chances that we created.
05:30Today, again, I think it was not a nice win,
05:35it was a little bit an ugly win,
05:37but the way at the end we suffered with defending,
05:40long throwing, set pieces,
05:41I think it's something that we need also because, you know,
05:44we had cliché that it's important.
