00:00Okay, who wants to start?

00:16Hi, Ruben.

00:18Commiserations.

00:19How do you go about assessing that and the damage that does to Manchester United moving forward?

00:24In the future, I'm not going to talk about the future

00:29because tonight we need to deal with the loss and the pain of losing this match.

00:34What I can say is that I think it was clear we were the better team.

00:39But then we managed not to score again and that is really hard to win football matches.

00:44But the guys tried everything to win the game.

00:48In the future, we'll have time to assess everything.

00:52Simon.

00:52You've spoken a lot about lack of goals.

01:01Do you regret not doing something in January to try and change that?

01:07Do you still believe in the players to deliver goals?

01:11Because it looks like you're just never going to score.

01:14There were some times that we didn't create situations.

01:19Now is not that time.

01:20We are creating situations.

01:21If you look at the opportunities that we had, it's different players.

01:25So it's not a problem of one guy.

01:27We are not scoring goals.

01:29The goalkeeper did a great job.

01:32So, of course, I'm confident in my players.

01:37It is my job to improve my players and to arrive in January to make a lot of changes.

01:42It was not possible because all the problems that we have to deal with that.

01:46And then I had to assess the team.

01:48So the problem is not just one player.

01:50We are missing chances with all the players.

01:53Samuel.

01:53Ruben, Alejandro Garnaccio did more in his first couple of minutes than Mason Mount did in 70-odd minutes.

02:00I appreciate selection calls can be tricky.

02:03But looking ahead, do you think you've got to be a bit more proactive with your style of play rather than more pragmatic?

02:10What do you mean?

02:11Well, it feels like Garnaccio is more of a goal threat.

02:13And, I mean, obviously, as I said, it's difficult with selection calls.

02:17But he comes on.

02:19He has an opportunity.

02:20Mason Mount wasn't really involved in...

02:22How many times we had this conversation, it was the opposite.

02:26Some players that come in, like Mason Mount against Bilbao, changed the game.

02:31So now it's easy to say.

02:34Who missed the big opportunity in the first half against Bilbao?

02:38Yeah, it was Garnaccio.

02:39Football is like that.

02:41Of course, now it's easy for us to talk about the lot of views.

02:46I just look at the game and try to manage things, to improve the team and try to win games.

02:55So you can see it both ways.

02:58So I remember everything about the past.

03:01So it's easy for me to respond to that question.

03:05I'll take one on this side here.

03:10Okay.

03:10But the gentleman at the front, yeah.

03:13Sim, boa noite.

03:14Pedro Neves de Souza, CMTV.

03:16Eu pedi-lhe uma palavra para os...

03:19There's a question in either English, Spanish or Basque, please.

03:21No, we only have translations for English, Spanish or Basque.

03:27So can you ask it in one of those three languages, please?

03:30What do you say to Portuguese people at the moment?

03:35And if you want to buy jokeres for the next season?

03:42I have to speak for our fans, for English people and for our supporters of Manchester United.

03:57So I have nothing to say to the Portuguese people in this moment.

04:01I just have to share the pain with our fans.

04:05They deserve better.

04:07We try everything about the future.

04:10We will see what we are going to do.

04:12Dave.

04:15Last week you weren't sure whether United were better off in the Champions League or out of the Champions League next season.

04:20Obviously now you're not in the Champions League.

04:22What impact will that have on you, the players, the club, the whole bigger picture for the club going forward next season?

04:28We have two plans, even for the market.

04:31And we need to understand that it's tough for a club like ours not to be in the Champions League.

04:38But we have to use the other side.

04:39So if we have more time, we have more time to think, to work during the week and to be better in the Premier League.

04:46That will be our focus.

04:47I appreciate that you don't want to talk about the future.

04:54But the season has been quite poor.

04:56Obviously the fans have come here and seen another quite poor performance.

04:59Is there anything that you can say to the fans to give them optimism that things are going to be better in the future, starting with next season?

05:06I think I was always really honest with you guys.

05:12We didn't perform perfect today.

05:15But we were better than the opponent.

05:17And the opponent also played.

05:18In the second half, we tried everything with the centre defenders, with the players wide, the crosses, going inside the box.

05:26So I think I'm really honest with you guys.

05:28So I expect the same.

05:30And there are some days that I said that we were really poor.

05:33I think today was not the day.

05:35We were not perfect.

05:36We have a lot to improve.

05:38But I think I'm always honest with you guys.

05:40Jamie.

05:43Ruben, when you came in, United were seven points off a Champions League berth.

05:48You're now 27 off fifth, which is obviously a Champions League berth.

05:51I mean, very politely, you cannot be happy with that.

05:55It's a failure, surely, of yourself and the people who employed you.

05:59So how can you be confident that you can turn it around?

06:01Because you've had three quarters of a season.

06:03You've just lost this final.

06:05I'm just giving you this statistic about how far you are off a Champions League berth.

06:10We have to see.

06:11Again, we have to see.

06:13We have to see.

06:14And I know everything that you did.

06:16I said it before you.

06:17So we have to see.

06:18In this moment, I'm not going to be here defending myself.

06:22It's not my style.

06:23I cannot do it.

06:25It's really hard for me.

06:26So I have nothing to show to the fans and say, I'm going to improve because of this.

06:31I had these problems.

06:32I will not do nothing.

06:35So in this moment, it's a little bit of faith.

06:38So let's see.

06:40And like I said before, coming here in the flash, I'm always open.

06:46And if the board and the fans feel that I'm not the right guy, I will go in the next day without any conversation about compensation.

06:52But I will not quit again.

06:54I'm really confident on my job.

06:57And as you can see, I will not change nothing in the way I do things.

07:02Last question.

07:03Alex.

07:03Ruben, you mentioned that you found it difficult to improve the players, having only just come into the club mid-season.

07:15What areas can you point to for improvement?

07:18Because I think there's a genuine argument.

07:19Actually, the team's gone backwards in the second half of the season, not forwards.

07:22Yeah, in some moments, I don't agree with that.

07:26I think we had some bad results.

07:30I think we were improving in certain areas.

07:31We were competitive in more games that we didn't score.

07:34And sometimes in the small detail, we lost some games.

07:39I remember a lot of games.

07:40I will not try to...

07:41Nottingham, Wolverhampton.

07:43We had more...

07:44Create more chances against City at our home.

07:47We didn't score.

07:48And we lost some games.

07:52It's a different way of playing.

07:53I tried to put the players the best I can.

07:56Try to help them.

07:57It was really hard on the players.

07:59But I also understand...

08:01I'm a young guy.

08:01But I also understand that if we had in the chances that we had in the second half,

08:06if we managed to score one, the game should be different.

08:10And our press conference should be so much different.

08:12So I have to deal with that.

08:14I understand.

08:15I have nothing to show to our fans.

08:17I am really honest with that.

08:21But again, I will continue to do the things the way I know.

08:28Thank you very much.

08:29We'll be back shortly with the Tottenham Hotspur press conferences.

08:31Thank you very much.

08:33Thank you very much.
