00:00The fans are going to have to suffer, the players are going to have to suffer, can you explain in your mind what that looks like?

00:07Because a lot of people will say those players out there have cost tens of millions of pounds and they are consistently underperforming.

00:16It's hard to explain, we have to acknowledge the moment and not go around the problem.

00:29Everybody here is underperforming, no matter what the circumstances, we are underperforming and we have to accept that.

00:39It's unacceptable to lose so many games for any club in the Premier League, imagine Manchester United.

00:47So it's a really hard moment but we have to continue, we have to continue.

00:54There is no other way, we need to suffer and continue.

01:02You said in the week that you learned more from the Southampton game than this week in general.

01:07After two poor performances, one good result, one bad result, what have you learned about these players?

01:13The opponents are better than us in many details.

01:19That we cannot be consistent, that I am not helping my players in the moment.

01:26So it's a hard moment, you have to acknowledge that we are in a very difficult situation.

01:32We are without all the bad records as losing games at home, losing games in the Premier League.

01:41So we are really underperforming and we need to win games, that's all.

01:50When you say you are not helping the players, what do you mean by that?

01:59I knew that it was going to be hard to put a completely new idea in the moment.

02:07But then when you lose games and you don't have that luck to win three games in a row, it's becoming really hard.

02:16So that's why I'm telling that we are going to suffer, because I will continue to do the same.

02:24So to help my players is to give them the tools to play in this way.

02:29But then without training is really hard.

02:32Then without training and losing games, and you can feel it in the end of the game.

02:36Everybody was changing position, and that is something that I will not see again.

02:42We can lose, but we have to maintain position.

02:45I just want to help my players.

02:48If I want to show to the media or to the fans, I put two strikers.

02:52I didn't put two strikers, because if I put two strikers, it is going to be more difficult for them to understand the way we play.

02:59So I'm just here to try to help my players, but we need to understand that we are breaking all the bad records.

03:08So it's a problem we need to change.

03:29In ten games in the Premier League, we won two.

03:31I know that.

03:33Imagine what this is for a fan of Manchester United.

03:38Imagine what this is for me.

03:40We are getting a new coach that is losing more than the last coach.

03:45I have full knowledge of that.

03:48Like I said, I'm not going to change, no matter what.

03:51I know we can succeed, but we need to survive this moment, because I'm not naive.

03:57I know that we need to survive now.

04:01We are being the worst team, maybe, in the history of Manchester United.

04:05I know that you want headlines, but I'm saying that because we have to acknowledge that and to change that.

04:15So here we go, your headlines.

04:30Do you feel let down by him?

04:35No, no, no.

04:37Why not? Because you yourself have said he was left out for training reasons.

04:41That's his responsibility, right? So that's on him, yes?

04:44Guys, like you said, it's his choice.

04:49I don't want to focus on this bad moment, because in this moment, Rashford is not here.

04:54In the last games that we lost, Rashford was not here.

04:57So I don't want to put this moment on Rashford.

05:01Rashford is out of this moment, because he's not playing.

05:04No matter what, I'm not going to put a player that I don't believe is the best for the team.

05:10It's difficult for your players to take on a new idea.

05:14These are top professionals. How difficult can it be?

05:19Because they're very good players, in theory.

05:22Yes, but they are used to different things.

05:25And then, you already saw in your years of experience,

05:30sometimes you have one team that almost wins the league,

05:33and then the next season is really bad, without confidence.

05:39Our players are really nervous and anxious.

05:42And then, when you go inside the pitch, you remember the last games here.

05:47If I feel it, the players feel it a lot.

05:51The only way is to continue to do the same and to win games.

05:55That's the only way to fix this.

06:16First of all, it's training.

06:19Then, in everything we do, even if the training is small,

06:25it's 10 minutes, 15 minutes, we have to give everything.

06:28And then, we have to be prepared to suffer.

06:33That's the only way.

06:36And then, we have to feel that feeling that we felt against Liverpool.

06:40Losing, losing, losing, losing.

06:42And then, reach a game against Liverpool, and something appears to the players.

06:46We have to feel that every day.

06:48Even when we win two games, we need to have that feeling every day.

06:55But I think in the training ground, during the week,

06:59is the best way to train that thing.

07:17Do you agree with that?

07:18Is it concerning that at the start of the game,

07:21players could switch off so quickly like that?

07:24Yeah, we need to be really focused on the game.

07:27Sometimes, I felt that the team is focusing on a lot of stuff.

07:32Also, because of the moment.

07:34But it's a simple play.

07:36If there is one play that Brighton does,

07:38it's to push the centre-back and the winger makes the movement.

07:42And we knew that before the game.

07:44So, I don't want to point to that specifically.

07:47It's everything.

07:49So, the only way is to work really hard, to win games,

07:53to have time for a new idea, to change things around.

07:59Just on Anaheim, Ruben,

08:00I've seen an outstanding play on Thursday.

08:04Kepley in the game when he put up for him.

08:07But obviously, it was another individual act.

08:10Is it a bit of a concern that you've seen these individual acts

08:15come back into the game after what was a difficult start?

08:20It's like the team.

08:23Ups and downs.

08:24Really ups sometimes, and really low downs.

08:27So, we have to maintain, like you said,

08:29maintain the focus during all the game to try to win games.

08:33That is the only way that we can turn things around.
