We have a penalty and a red card that wasn't given to us, and then we lost in the last minute.
And today, again and again, we were winning, we conceded in the last minute.
So I think both games we have been really unlucky against a good team.
We did really well.
No, we changed a little bit in the middle, trying to have more players between the lines and after we adjust again.
So we knew that it's a team that has some pace and some good players in the middle and some ability up front and pace.
So we needed to manage and the way that we did it I think was fine for a while.
They started the second half playing quicker, but we adjusted quickly and also we were more a threat in the counter-attack.
Yeah, but I think when you go to the final minute winning, I think that you cannot be happy.
Yeah, the main thing is the team seems solid, well-organised, and we try to do things in the way that we want to do things.
Still, we can improve.
That is the point that we have plenty of room for improvement, and that is good.
Yeah, we needed some fresh legs, we needed some energy...
He could make the run, so I think it was fine.
Obviously, he needs to understand what we want to do and also what means the Premier League.
But overall, I think he did well too.
Appreciate your time, Rafa.
Thank you.
So if you see the incidents today, I think we need the VAR.
We saw you make that symbol, actually.
