Hi Erik, Christian Eriksen said it looked like Twente wanted it more than United, is that what went wrong tonight?
00:09
Yes, you saw it, it was the game of their life.
00:12
They fought for every yard and we didn't.
00:19
99% is not enough, you have to give 100%, you have to kill the game, you have to finish it off.
00:26
We are leading 1-0 and then there's coming an atmosphere in the team,
00:32
we bring the game to the end, but you have to go for the second goal and then you kill the game.
00:41
You've invested a lot of money in Rasmus Hoyland and Joshua Xherxey,
00:45
the potential is there, but is there a concern that there are still not enough goals in this team?
00:51
We have to work on it, that's clear.
00:54
I think we create enough chances, we have to score, but it's not only up to them two players.
01:02
Definitely not only Rasmus because he's just returning, but also other players.
01:09
Across the front line we have enough players who can score goals,
01:13
with Bruno, with Ressi, with Canaccio, with Amad Diallo, all goalscoring plays.
01:21
Why do you feel it hasn't clicked again tonight in the final third?
01:26
You've had 19 attempts on goal, 5 on target, but obviously just the one going in the back of the net.
01:31
Yes, that's true.
01:34
We have to work on this, that's also clear.
01:39
We have to be more clinical in such situations,
01:43
but I don't think that was the only problem tonight.
01:48
We have to keep going, be consistent in the structure of the team.
01:54
It's also a question of mentality.
01:57
Kill it off, make the second goal and then the game is over.
02:09
There's no problem for you, Joop?
02:12
No, thank you.
02:15
Did your old club surprise you?
02:20
Definitely, you saw there was a very good fighting spirit in the team.
02:27
You could see after when they drove how they celebrated what it meant for them.
02:33
They were on the pitch, but we as a team have to be ready for that.
02:38
We can't allow them a situation like with the equaliser,
02:43
that one player, the right full-back from FC Twente,
02:47
is dribbling over the whole midfield without being stopped.
02:51
There was no underestimation, you didn't underestimate Twente, did you?
02:56
You didn't underestimate Twente, did you?
02:59
It's not underestimating, it's more, we are 1-0 up, kill the game.
03:04
Yes, thank you, Frank. Kill the game.
03:07
You say that a lot, kill the game.
03:09
There's a law in football.
03:11
When you're 1-0 up, the game takes more than 90 minutes,
03:15
and you have to fight until the end,
03:17
and when you score the second goal then it's off.
03:20
Hi, just going back to what Christian Eriksen said,
03:24
the players not being up for it,
03:27
is that a concern for you?
03:29
Because when you have that lack of desire,
03:31
surely the players should be up for a game of this magnitude?
03:34
Definitely.
03:36
Especially, we are very ambitious,
03:41
and when you have ambition then you have to perform,
03:45
then you have to prove that point.
03:48
Today, especially in the second half,
03:50
I think we were too easy-going, too complacent.
03:54
We didn't bring it over the line,
03:56
and I think as a team you have to benefit from this.
03:59
Last two, Carl and then Simon.
04:16
You're not saying the same things that you've been saying for almost two years,
04:20
when you're talking about mentality,
04:22
that should be something that is relatively easy to solve.
04:25
Is this team improving?
04:27
I think often the mentality is very good from this team.
04:31
I saw in many games how high our work rate is,
04:40
and that is often very good.
04:42
Today I have some criticism,
04:47
but it's not only the team, I have to look in the mirror as well.
04:50
I'm part of it,
04:53
and we should have acted differently,
04:55
especially in the second half, as I said.
04:58
You have to kill the game,
04:59
especially if you know we have some problems in scoring goals.
05:04
If you don't have a goal,
05:06
then you need to be consistent in your game.
