-TIMESTAMPS-
00:00 – Intro.
00:23 – Saliba: matter of days.
00:49 – timber: depends how he feels. It’s a knock that he picked up. A matter of days.
01:20 – Rice: let’s see how it is today. It’s an illness so let’s see how far he can push.
01:39 – Trossard: matter of days.
02:01 – momentum: we’ve put ourselves in a good position in the champions league. Now for wolves.
02:40 – Wolves: definitely. I know the manager really well and how he’s going to push the players.
03:06 – have to beat Wolves?: You have to get over 90 points, we have three points tomorrow we need to earn.
03:51 – 7th in form table: hopefully tomorrow it changes. Last one games we’d be the best!
04:23 – Super computer to win the league?: the last five games? Since the start? Until the end? The only thing we can do is increase the probability to win.
05:16 – complacency: Talking about Villa, understanding the team reacting. It’s not going to happen.
05:50 – Open play goals: this is football, it has waves and you have a small sample size. 40 game isn’t enough as well. We score with different players and different manners.
06:30 – Jesus: a player of his quality that gives us so much. He’s pushing.
07:10 – enough credit this season?: that’s not for me to judge. We’re in a strong position in all three competitions. The credit comes at the end of the season. We’re in a strong position.
07:50 – Norgaard: I think that’s comes down to the mentality of the players and the intelligence of a player like Christian. We have a lot of examples of players who play in other positions. It gives us an edge.
08:33 – Enjoying this season: the lack of pressure? I enjoy it a lot because of the people that are around us. Winning helps and I feel privileged.
09:20 – Quadruple on?: Three points for tomorrow, that’s all on my mind.
09:53 – adapting to Gyokeres: two things have to emerge. Put the player in the best condition and the manner of how we play needs to be fulfilled. Before the injury he was in a great place. The goals will come.
10:49 – rare week off: three things. Make sure to rest players, then start to reactivate everybody and start to be in best mindset to beat Everton.
11:19 – No injuries Wednesday?: No.
11:32 – Saliba frustration: it was something quite small, it came from an ankle injury and he started to overload. It looks better but we need to see.
12:14 – consider selling Jesus?: No. Gabby has a lot to offer the team. He’s done so much to be in this position again.
12:55 – Nwaneri: in the manner other players have to cope the same way, his attitude has been excellent. Proving I’m wrong.
13:16 – Ethan attitude is exceptional, when we have a day off he wants to train.
13:51 – Zubimendi: very impressed. I know the difficulty of coming into this league and performing straight away. His defending metrics are incredible.
15:03 – did you think he would need time to adapt: Yes, but I think the fact he couple prepare for a longer period because he knew he was coming here helped.
15:46 – Gyokeres back to form?: probably to unlock it is goals. He needs that. He’s in a good place. Now to convert chances.
16:22 – City back to best?: We know the situation with other clubs. The focus has to be on us.
16:55 – Arsenal in community: remarkable and amazing. No one could imagine where we’d be in 40 years. The impact in our community is exceptional.
