00:00The danger can come from anywhere. They have great players who play every weekend in a
00:07top league, on the top level. And of course the last months, the last year of Williams
00:15and Yamal have been fantastic. Their evolution is absolutely brilliant. It's always nice
00:21to see young players coming on the top level. Especially Yamal, he's 16 years old, nearly
00:2917, I don't know exactly, but I try to remember where I was when I was 16 and I was miles
00:35away from that. So no, it's nice because it brings something fresh to football. I think
00:43the problem is, of the football world, the last 15 years have been like a ping-pong between
00:51Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. And to see young players also coming on this level,
00:57it's absolutely great for the sport, great for football. But you've got also, for me,
01:03one of the best players in the world playing in your midfield, with Rodri. As I said, when
01:08I look at the Spanish team, all the positions are filled up with great players. But football
01:17is not always about individualities, but also as a team. Spain have shown a lot of very,
01:23very good things in the group stage, but I think also Georgia have shown a couple of
01:30interesting things.
