🕵️‍♂️ Transcript:

okay is everyone in the squad there’s no doubts over Fitness everyone that is here will be will be fit and available to start yeah everybody that is in the squad is fully fit to to start them the game as I said as well we have kieron TI after um a long injury um great news that he’s back he’s been training with the team and he’s available to to participate how important would it be to to make a real statement with an away win because you know in the Champions League maybe sort of way performances haven’t yielded the go gos and it’s potentially a big week isn’t it you know you’ve already enjoyed a fantastic home win on Saturday well it’s certainly something that we have to improve I think uh we have made the right steps and looking back the way we played against inter and against a team that has been so dominant in the league and having the Champions League final that they should have won um and play and dominate the game that we should have done but the reality is that after you have to make it happen and we didn’t you know and uh I’m making that steps is what we have to do next be ruthless be much more efficient in the opposition box and when we get there actually do what we have to do to take the three points away from here okay Sam Dean from the telegraph hi Mel two questions one how good is Victor garez and two how did you stop him well I would like to talk about the the team uh about the coaches and and how phenomenal they’ve been you know the run that they are in is is incredible uh that tells you that it’s not only the quality the set to as well as the ambition is something about the team energy that that they have and that’s a great challenge that we have tomorrow to come here and make a statement and and show that we are capable that against this kind of opponent be ourselves and win the game hi Mel I know you’re focused on sporting the team but you’re coming up against a very inform Striker he seems to have the pace for power of a height is he in your eyes what a modern day sent forward looks like now like an earling Harland kind of mold I understand the question but obviously they have a lot of individual qualities that’s why they are able as well to win games in in various ways and yes in a specific position they have tremendous players James all right Mel um obv it’s a new format this season in the Champions League and we’re all kind of struggling to work out a little bit what each result means because there’s a big more games is is there any concern for you about where you are in the table at the moment well we wanted to be higher that’s for sure but this the position that we are right now and we have to face it and and control what we can which is to to play in a way that’s going to give his every chance to win the game and um and fight to do it as quick as possible and tomorrow we have a great opportunity to do that hi Mel hi I’m just on the away form in Europe I think it is now only one win in the last eight away and I know some of them have been good performances like into we know you were unlucky but is it a pattern that you can explain not all the games they’ve been the same it’s true that within those games there were games that when we already qualified but something is very true that we have to improve those results and we have to find the ways to understand what is been missing uh sometimes been performance to be fair sometimes been when the performance been there other aspects and that’s the next step that we have to make as a team muel just on that point I think it’s four away games in a row you’ve not scored in Champions League no um is that because the players are are still new to this Champions League people forget that it’s only last season in this season and they maybe forget that yourself is still adjusting to getting the right balance on that I wouldn’t say that this is probably the the most important thing but um the efficiency that we have shown inside the box at this level with the chances that you normally able to generate in Champions League is not be at the level that requires to win consistently and that’s something that I always say champions league is about boxes as small margins and detail and you have to get all those right to win especially away from home hi M David was just talking just now about how he’s feeling a lot more comfortable in his second season that he’s adapted a little bit I was wondering what if you’ve noticed that in his body language his demeanor his personality as well as his performances well yes it’s something natural as well I think um it takes time to adapt to to a new club to a huge club like like ours and even though I thought that last season he had a really good season obviously now he’s more confident feel he understand the system he’s got his space in the right way you know it’s um you can tell that he much more composed he’s got better links with with his teammates and um yeah he’s been in great form you mentioned about wanting to focus on your plays not only the specific opposition players so in terms of William sber and Gabrielle what kind of task do they have tomorrow and I’m sure you’re hoping for them to step up as ever against an informed Striker yeah for the whole team because obviously when you look at the numbers they produced um in the domestic league and in Champions League at home where they have won every game and they score always at least a goal um is something that we have to really avoid so we’re going to have to be really consistent and efficient to to try to prevent that happening Mikel so many people be coming through to you at the club players and other staff members and say Mr coach you know there’s issues here you know they they relying on you for feedback for information to help them to support them and you give that support and you give that guidance because you’re leader who do you turn to for your support for my support who when you’re feeling maybe the pressure it’s it’s so odd in this intense season we of Christmas but are are there pressure moments and who do you turn to at home the first one at home that’s why I have a beautiful family a lovely wife my kids all the loved ones and then everybody all the staff you know that’s why my coaches are so important all the stuff that is around it upstairs same support same energy energy um is vital because as you said there are always bombs there are always feelings there are always issues at football club there are always things that are very urgent have to be resolved right now and um and yeah I’m very lucky to have that environment thank you Sor we take two more from UK we’ll go to some Portuguese questions from BC Mel good evening uh this time last year you embarked on a winning run after the international break I’m just thinking how important is it now I know it’s a challenge to play every 3 or 4 days but this this time between now and March the next International break to Able just to focus purely from your point of view and can you can you do what you did last year yeah when you look at I think it’s 32 games till the next International break so that says you the story every three days we’re going to need everybody everybody at his best um and be very well prepared I think the team is um back of having almost the fullest Squad available I noticed a huge difference already in training and um and Eng in the team I sense that already on Saturday against forest and it’s about the consistency that you are talking about now to build some momentum some results some big performances and and go in a in a big run hi Mel your your second trip to to this stadium in actually quite a short period of time it feels like a lot longer ago that we were here last but I wonder have you had a chance to to pause since you’ve come here and sort of take stock and look at how your team’s progressed and what you think is different now from from when the last time you here in this that’s a good question it’s always a good exercise to see the team a few years back and I watch both games obviously just to have an understanding how we prepared them what it were why it didn’t and it’s difficult to recognize a team two years later you know because you tend to see and look at the game and all the stuff in um in a different way but it was it was good it seems longer ago to be fair in a way uh but here we are again the good news is we in a in a different competition a competition that we really want to be and be dominant and be important and this is where we are looking for Portuguese media hello Mikel hello welcome again in Portugal Mel custodio from sporting TV not that much not that much as change between the 2023 games you have a lot of the same players sporting too you have new players of course but do you think both teams are stronger right now than that that results I think so um I think so because I think every team evolved and talking about sporting and what they’ve done has been unbelievable and I we have as well progressed U very much from what we were two years ago so it’s going to be a good test gent here from newspaper record I’m asking you sporting has lost his coach uh last week what do you think it can be a surprise for you tomorrow or you are expecting the same sporting that uh gets the the best results in the in the last rounds of the Champions League well I don’t expect the same because I think every coach and the coaching the staff behind him would have his own ideas we have obviously analyzed what he’s done the things that he can tweak um and he’s done in the past to be prepared and try to understand as much as possible what they can try to do and especially how we can hurt them and um and look forward to that okay well I think that’s it than thank you oh sorry sorry one hello uh three three games ago sporting bat Manchester City in a big way here in alvalade so was that game like a base for you to prepare the the game for tomorrow well it was one of those obviously they have played other games in Champions League and domestic to try to understand as well how they behave about uh other kind of opposition because preparing for Manchester city is a really specific uh game and I’m telling you because I’ve experienced that so I think you need a much broader picture to understand sets and behaviors and understand why they do certain things obviously we have analyzed that but um yeah it was a remarkable game thank you
