00:07Hello, can you give us an update on injuries?
00:10I think there's some doubt about Mateus Nunez and Jai, how is everyone shaping up?
00:15They are all available, unless Antoine, Semenya, the rest they are all available.
00:22You've played Brighton this week, what makes them such difficult opponents?
00:29What they are doing, they are doing very good on the ball and off the ball, they are very
00:34aggressive, man-to-man oriented, all the games, they attack very good with so many players,
00:40full-back, wingers, attacking midfielders, so it's going to be a tough game.
00:46With a lot of the traditional top six teams having a slow start to the season,
00:51do you see Brighton as genuine contenders perhaps for a Champions League place?
00:56I think it's still too early for all the clubs, but for sure, again, they are doing very good.
01:02It's a team that in any game they score many goals, three, four, five goals,
01:07they create many chances against any team, so it's going to be a tough game,
01:14but where they can be at the end of the season, I don't know.
01:19We saw Ryan Cherky giving a vociferous team talk, is he emerging as giving a team talk,
01:29talking to the players before the game?
01:31Is he emerging as perhaps a leader of the future?
01:36Can be, yeah, can be, but I think it's important that all the players, they step up in this kind
01:44of
01:44things in terms of leadership, and it's very good from Ryan for sure.
01:51Just on the back of that question, Premier League have had this traditional big six
01:54clubs, but Brighton are currently third, Villa have done well last few seasons, Bournemouth too.
02:00Does that concept of big six clubs still exist, or is there a new order now?
02:06There are, every season I think, for instance, Aston Villa and Newcastle, in the last season,
02:13they have been always, always there. I think every season you can have, you know, one or two
02:20surprises that they are there, and now it's so, the level is so similar that you can draw points
02:27against any team, you can win against any team, so it's more similar level.
02:33Is that balance you talk about, is it good for the Premier League as a competition?
02:37Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, it's very good for the Premier League, that's why probably,
02:41you know, so many people love Premier League, because you never, you never know,
02:45you see also in the, you know, during the week what's happened, so it's always, always complicated.
02:50Hi Enzo, you've made quite a few early substitutions this season with different players,
02:58when they've been on yellow cards, just wondering, it's quite unusual for a manager to take players
03:05out of the game so regularly, just sort of what the thinking behind it, other than don't get sent off.
03:09No, but not always has been for yellow cards, sometimes has been because I didn't like what I see, so
03:16I changed.
03:18For instance, I think Liverpool game, after the red card for them, we had, I think,
03:26Nick O'Reilly was on yellow card, and in Metadeli we changed him, yes, that game was because of the
03:32yellow card,
03:32but it happened more times that we changed players, not because they are on yellow cards, it's because I don't
03:38like what they see.
03:39I think you mentioned last week with Mark and Ryan taking them off at half-time on yellows as well,
03:48just like, when you look back at your Chelsea team, last season they got a lot of red cards,
03:54when you think back, was that quite a big issue for that team?
03:58When I was there or when I left?
03:59When you were there.
04:00And when I left.
04:01Yeah.
04:02You lack information, when I was there or when I left.
04:06So it wasn't an issue, you don't think?
04:08I don't think so.
04:09No.
04:10Okay, thank you.
04:14Anzo, the Brighton manager's got a growing reputation in the game, he's obviously only sort of 33,
04:19are you able to describe the differences between coming up against him and someone of his age and energy
04:30compared to maybe other managers that are more long-standing in the Premier League?
04:37What I can say is what I see from them, that is very clear.
04:41This season I think they are a bit different in terms of style compared to last season and two years
04:48ago
04:48when I was in Chelsea and I faced them. This season they are much more man-to-man oriented
04:57in the way they press. They are a bit more direct in the way they attack.
05:04But probably the reason why it's so difficult to play against them is because they are always front foot,
05:12aggressive, and again, their attack also very good. If you see the Premier League game they have
05:18played, they score three, four, five goals against any team, they create many chances. So that's why
05:24you need the right balance and also that's why I was so happy after two days ago game. It's because,
05:30yes, they scored two goals, they had some more chances, we also created chances. But we knew that
05:35it was a difficult test for us, but at the end we dealt quite well.
05:41Did you see that as an even contest on Wednesday between the two? Because obviously he came out
05:47afterwards and said he felt that City were lucky, but it felt like quite an even night really.
05:53Again, this is what he said. Every manager can say something different, it depends on what you see
05:59with your eyes, but I respect what he said. In terms of the tactical element of tomorrow,
06:07is it just the best form of dealing with the man-to-man and just going for it?
06:11Yes, we try to prepare the game knowing what they are going to do. We try to prepare the game
06:16in the
06:17best way we can and, you know, continue, if we can, to win games.
06:22Jamie?
06:25Hi, Enzo. You said after the game the other night that there really isn't a competitive
06:30Donnarumma as the number one goalkeeper. Do you remember you're saying that? Yes?
06:35Mm-hmm.
06:35Yeah. So, he's undroppable by the sound of it. Do you have other players who are undroppable? Like
06:40Ruben Diaz, for example, as your captain, would you consider leaving him out if it was the right
06:44best for the team?
06:47I think one thing is to say that in this moment, Jijo plus 10, and another thing is to say
06:56undroppable, you said?
06:57Yeah, so you will always be...
06:59There are two different things. There is no player that is undroppable,
07:04but there are players that in this moment, it's Jijo plus 10.
07:08So, why did you say that about Jijo then?
07:10Yes, because I think in this way.
07:12So, in this moment, he's undroppable then, is what you're saying?
07:15In this moment, it's Jijo plus 10.
07:17And that's to sort of back him because he needs your support because of the mistakes he's been making?
07:21Yes, because in this moment, I feel like this.
07:24Thanks, everyone.
