00:00What do you want to win every game of football?

00:04We want to win every game of football, so we were disappointed losing against Chelsea.

00:09And that's nothing different for Arsenal.

00:12These two clubs have the highest possible standards of what you can ask for,

00:18both very good teams.

00:21So, yes, we both want to win, but it's a bit different

00:25than when the league would still not be finished yet,

00:30in the sense that we wouldn't have won the league title yet.

00:33But yes, we definitely want to win the game, but I don't think that's any different to Arsenal.

00:37It's about this season, it's about the amount of points we still need to end

00:42to finish in the position that we want and we have to end that.

00:46They deserve that, I mean, they've been the better team,

00:48they've been the most consistent,

00:50and the coaching staff at the Dome has been fascinating,

00:53it's been really good, and they fully deserve it.

00:56And that's the sport.

00:57When somebody's better, you have to upload and accept and try to reach that level.

01:02Yes, something has to drive you, motivate you,

01:05and pain probably is a good one to use sometimes, you know,

01:09when you don't really want to do something,

01:11but it's the right thing to do, use it as a motivation for next season.

01:16It's a big one, it's a huge one.

01:18United will be a big one, and Forest will be a big one.

01:23Now we have three more games, that all of them, they're going to be big games.

01:27For sure, Sunday, it's a chance to start in the right way.

01:30We are in a good run, in a good mood, and hopefully we can play a good game and win the game.

01:37It's not the ideal situation, it's 12 o'clock in the morning, it's the first night,

01:42but we need to play the game.

01:44So we need to adapt immediately, prepare the game in the best way,

01:48and as I said, hopefully we can continue our good moment.

01:53I don't have nothing to say about the criticism, because we deserve it.

01:57If we cannot accept everything in this kind of season, I think we are in the wrong business,

02:04and I fully acknowledge that, and I agree with all the critics.

02:08We have to manage that, but we also have to acknowledge that we are Manchester United,

02:14and we need to win games also in Premier League, and we have to use every game to improve,

02:20even to prepare the final, but especially to prepare the future.

02:23But I have to make a choice, what is the best for the club, not what is the best for me.

02:29And I make a choice, in this moment I'm going to save and try to save all the players,

02:34because it's really important for us to win the final.

02:38Huge respect for Southampton.

02:41If we take a look at Arsenal to help us in that view to qualify for the Champions League, it's fine.

02:47As a target, when you are not a champion, it's qualified for the next Champions League season.

02:54We start 0-0, and it's a massively important game for us.

02:58Definitely it is.

02:59It's just three games left, and after that game it's two, and a huge respect for them.

03:07Three wins, I want us to finish strong.

03:09As I said many times, it doesn't seem important.

03:13If you finish 17th, it keeps you out of the bottom three.

03:16But I think I'd rather try and finish 13th.

03:19I think that's about the best we could probably do.

03:21We have to try and aim for that.

03:23I think Everton have been poor for a good chunk of the start of the season,

03:29so they should be enjoying this bit just now.

03:32We want the players to keep the standards, keep the levels up,

03:35and they know what's required if they're going to keep winning games,

03:38and hopefully we can try and show that.

03:41We want the players to keep the rules being left.

03:48They can change the rules—

03:50we can't change the rules, but now you know what's going to be going to be or what's going to be on.

03:54We will keep the rules together rather than if we follow up.

03:59We don't know who will provoke the rules.

04:02We will reject that rules.

04:03We will be able to change the rules over the season.

04:06We will change the rules by determining the rules of the season.
