00:00How difficult is the Premier League?

00:04I want to show how difficult it is in the Premier League.

00:07There are so many teams involved.

00:09The one that they have been consistent has been Liverpool,

00:13and this is the reason why they won the Premier League.

00:16I think all the rest we had during the season

00:18had a little bit of an up-and-down moment,

00:20and this is the reason why we are there.

00:22But we are happy to be there and try to finish in the best way.

00:27If we win, we do our job.

00:30We don't need to pay attention to the other results.

00:33For sure, if we are not winning, probably we need to pay attention.

00:37But we have the privilege that depends on us.

00:43Proud, special.

00:45But I think proud sums up the most.

00:50Because after working here for a year now,

00:54I know even better how hard it is.

00:56That's why I just said it's the hardest trophy to win.

00:59This should be a day that everybody is going to enjoy.

01:02It's been 35 years, everybody is waiting for this moment.

01:06Or everybody, but Liverpool fans are waiting for this moment.

01:09And I think we've set the example against Tottenham.

01:13I don't think I've ever been part of, I've ever seen a celebration in a nicer way done.

01:21I need a few more things to then have a real clarity and analysis and describe the season with the right words.

01:30Because I know that that's going to be very, very important.

01:33We all feel the same way, that we feel that we are capable.

01:36It's not just a dream or it's not just something you want to do it.

01:39It's that we have everything that is needed to do that.

01:42And even if you do, there is a lot of things that are going to play a part to win.

01:46A lot of things.

01:47Performance, it's going to be the squad quality.

01:49Availability is going to be referees, the schedule.

01:53Who do you play?

01:54When?

01:55In what kind of form they are?

01:56How many days do you have to recover?

01:58And then, the randomness of football.

02:00That one, I cannot control.

02:03We have to look at ourselves.

02:05Look at ourselves.

02:06We need one point to go to the Champions League next season.

02:10And we have to go to win against a top side.

02:13Of course, it's really, really important.

02:15First, because it's an exceptional team.

02:18So, when I saw it yesterday, I said, wow, it will be a real tough game.

02:22You have a good build-up, well organized.

02:26So, they have everything.

02:27Everything a team has done.

02:28It could not be differently when the season, the best season they have done.

02:34In the last games, it depends on you.

02:38Of course, in Fulham as well.

02:40But it depends on us.

02:41Yeah, it's better.

02:42It's tough for a club like ours not to be in the Champions League.

02:45But we have to use the other side.

02:47So, if we have more time, we have more time to think, to work during the week.

02:51And to be better in Premier League, that will be our focus.

02:55I'm always open.

02:56If 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.

03:03But I will not quit again.

03:05Again, I'm really confident on my job.

03:08And as you can see, I will not change nothing in the way I do things.

03:12I don't know if we could have got much better than where we are when we first came in.

03:17Crystal Palace, they have been in a really good second half of the season.

03:20And obviously, they have gone and won the Cup as well.

03:22So, they were about the only team who were sort of in there that we could have even thought about catching at the time.

03:27But I have to say, I'm really, really pleased for us to get the point.

03:31So, we've finished up with an awful lot of big sides, good sides.

03:35And the players have done a brilliant job, they really have.

03:38We now need to pick that up again, start the next season and hopefully take it into the new stadium, but also into the new season.
