Transcript

00:00 I think it's a match above many other derbies. It's so huge because it's

00:10 Manchester, internal, but I think it's also about world football and all the

00:16 eyes will be on this game, global wide.

00:18 It's okay, it's a good rivalry.

00:20 I think it's respect each club, I think so.

00:25 No big issues happening. It's my eighth season here, nothing big issues happened.

00:32 So we won games, we lost games and of course the FIFA Cup final was special

00:37 because they wanted to win and avoid the trouble for our side and

00:43 for us of course was so important to arrive to Istanbul to have the

00:49 challenge to deal with what we have done.

00:52 I think that's definitely you see we are back where we wanted to be.

00:58 This is a hard team to beat and they find a way to win and so we are going in the right direction.

01:08 United always have been, always had that feeling. It doesn't matter the managers.

01:12 I found few since I am here. So always is a tough, tough opponent.

01:18 The quality individually they have and their style, their character, their momentum.

01:23 They have the ability to be maybe on top and in 10-15 minutes splash, splash and they score goals.

01:30 So we know the quality they have. So no doubt about that. Always have been, always will be.
