00:00 The big criticism that's levelled at Eric Ten Hag for observers is that they don't understand his philosophy and the way he's asking his teams to play.
00:08 I understand your question, I don't talk about the opponents.
00:11 No, but I'm sure you've watched them. What do you see? What are you expecting from them this weekend?
00:15 We'll know my players. I expect the best for United, but I don't talk one word about what they do, what the opponents do, because I respect them too much.
00:25 I don't want to misunderstand my words, but when I have comments, people always say "pep Jeeb, pep Jeeb", and it's never my intention.
00:35 That's why it's better not to say anything. I know them and I have a lot of respect for the institution, United, of course, Eric and the players.
00:43 Sergio Radcliffe and the people know exactly the diagnosis of the club. I don't have not even one, nothing about that club.
00:52 If Sergio Radcliffe says they need two or three years to be there, who am I to say the opposite?
00:59 I'm pretty sure they will work to reduce that gap, but the rest of that I cannot give you an answer because I'm not there.
01:06 I don't know the diagnosis that they have right now, what's happening in Man United.
01:11 You've faced them many times here as a manager, so in terms of football, in terms of the level of football and the style and the level they're at, do you think they could be title contenders within two or three years?
01:22 I'm not the right person to know it.
