0:00 start with the headline which is that it's job complete top of the group um you know potentially what your next opponents are in terms of brass PSG Monaco or Benfica at this stage so overall when we look at the overall campaign and now you've obviously progressed as well how do you feel positive not of not because of the result today but to end up first is always good and the performance today was also pleasing to see uh with so many players that were or either not playing on their own position or playing for the first time on this stage um so then to keep up with this PSV team was uh especially in the first half was good to see I saw some some good performances from individuals as well many of them made for the first time 90 minutes so that's also

0:46 positive um but yeah if we end up one or two if you can choose you prefer to end up one but it doesn't matter for the teams you face and the end result is that you always check okay who do we face and we see three strong French teams and one Portuguese team so the end result is also that there are hardly any easy opponents to face if you end up first second or seven or eight I want to talk about the building blocks of those young players you was talking about because they say in those type of experiences they may take more even though they were experienc in defeat tonight what did you see in terms of some of those young players that were thrusted into an intense environment it was an intense game because PSV always takes uh the risk to play manm mark all over the pitch and uh They're Not Afraid uh to press you high and and like I said man Mark so um then you don't have a lot

1:31 of time uh we tried to do the same as well press them high also so you get an exciting game where we saw five goals but apart from that I think there were were a few of our players that had a good performance against this team and um one one midfielder that made his I think his debu oned level or particularly stood out for me uh if you look at uh I think in six seven months I I'm not even sure if he played one time 90 minutes already uh because he come back from an injury so to play a game like this on this level is uh is very pleasing to see credit to James McConnell in that as well um overall I think I'll just ask you just one more about the red card I didn't see it from your Vantage Point I only saw it appear in terms of a replay but in a week where I'm very cautious about the

2:17 conversations around referees I just wanted to know what your thoughts were on the on the red card I was thinking what do you mean within a week but um you mean Arsenal probably last week yeah for I I I don't think um I haven't seen it back but I don't think there's a lot to complain about the red card what was a bit more frustrating if I have to say something about the referee uh because you asked me that was the second goal where he was uh hindering is that the right word uh a and then wak a SL a slight knock which is normally not enough for a foul but after being in the way as a referee maybe maybe you can then say okay let's give a free kick because then I haven't had any impact on the game and the third one we conceded out in the 47 minut minutes and I saw after 45

3:02 minutes the fourth uh the fourth official saying that were four minute of ated time but yeah in the end it's about us having to defend that batt but uh the red card I don't think we can argue that but I haven't seen him back nicely done I don't really want to talk about referees but if you ask me I'll get a couple of criticisms he's he's impressive he's great he's a sharp cookie so Liverpool beaten but top of the pile Arsenal in the top eight courtesy two oh that would not be a good reward bearing in mind they just keep getting stronger in this competition and there a young a young team Bara on the left who's coming fore has been in absolute scintilating form um andri has got them going a little bit there signs that people are starting to believe again in this squad so that that would be a terrible draw for Liverpool but PSG

3:48 will not be fking thanking them either they they wouldn't want to play nobody will want to play Liverpool Liverpool are the formed team a breast the ones you won that wouldn't be the booby prize nicely done I was wondering how he was going that guys we will leave it there that is it from me Joe and Peter it's what they've all gained from it they should take it they've run themselves into the ground um a lot of the players there was good performances from the more experienced ones listen I don't know too much more what we could have wanted from it yes I would have liked to have got a draw at least out of it I thought the referee coming from the Nationwide league has done pretty good in for some of his decisions that he's made in that second half in particular so all around

4:35 I thought it was a decent display by the boys Jay really positive you know if I first and foremost look from it from a point of view of Liverpool you know you don't really ever want to lose a game we've had we've been unbelievable in the Champions League so far this season to pick up seven wins to lose a game right at the end is obviously a little bit disappointing but I think there's more positives to take than there are disappointments you know personally for me seeing a lot of the young Lads get opportunities and and whole her own you know the highest cup competition you know in in the world you know especially for me James M 4 he threw out the 190 minutes worked his socks off he was good on the ball he never shied away Dan's really R hard up on on the front line but as a I felt the experience boys just like Tomo said I think they really rally around them helped them and gued them through the game so a lot of positive to take we're through sat top of the tree

5:21 and we move on to the next one and as you said before the match it was a position that Liverpool had earned the right to be in and because of that there are some good things to come from theight as Jay said some of the senior players I mean we said his name a lot whilst we were watching the game there Federico Kaza to get through the the F thing and showed some some really nice flashes throughout the match and that that this is what I'm saying him and Robo and Endo I thought the attitudes to it and and Simas was was top class but you look at ker I thought he actually got better and I was thinking I was worried for the boy because I think even Bobby was saying in his commentary you know he's not going to get to 60 Minutes you know because he's still getting his way back after after injury thought his

6:07 performance was fantastic he was still going in the last five minutes he was trying to agge us trying to go for it and I was more and I think aror Slaughter of looked at that and he going yeah that'll do for me as much as all the young Lads have given me something this boy's had a difficult time through injuries and to me as I said beforehand there's a lot of things there which he's doing better he's looking a lot fitter it was interesting that that um you talked about the younger players a lot of those who who you know pretty well and John Bradley was actually mentioning your name in commentary tonight of your early experiences of playing Champions League football and I just wonder whether you get out onto that pitch you think oh okay this is the level then and I know you were trading alongside the likes of Steven Gerard every day so you know the level but you know in a game to

6:53 game sort of combat you're like okay well this is where I want to get to yeah the Premier League is an incredible you know level you is playing alongside Stevie G training with him Mascaro the Alonzo you know they were they were world renown players of a higher level but the champions league for me is another level I think you know to go and play against the the world class players from all around the world game after game after game a big bit of advice for the boys which I tried to give them before it was just get a touch of the ball as quick as you can you know I think you know Tomo's been played at the highest level when European cups and you know done done all of it but that first touch of a ball for a young boy to go on and get a touch and feel you just feel as if like the weight of the world will then just relax you know you can you can concentrate on your game you can get on it you can be brave and that for them you know they grew into the game as the

7:38 game went on I felt that James you know really showed his class in receiving he got on the ball and played he he wasn't shying away from things and you know if you can go and express yourself at the highest on on the Champions League format in a in a probably a big deciding game for PSV but also for us and finishing first and second I think you know hopefully you can crack on from now more for James it's it is about decision making on the ball when you're playing in his position and I thought he got most things right there was a times in that final third particularly in the first half we got wrong choice all the time but that's people who want to take a chance for James con to be in there the times is is keeping it but don't get too lazy don't take the easy option when it can go forward quickly do it and his

8:23 choice of passing I thought was was Top Class he of being one massive benefit to honor I guess the other point about the young players and we're talking about the level of the opposition but but you just touched on the fact that this was a really live game for PSV tonight and again that the atmosphere in einthoven is something again you can take something from playing in a game that that has such significance maybe not for your own team but certainly for the other team yeah of course and you know I think you have to put into consideration for for these young boys going there and on the 21 level we we can never really replicate you know the stadium the atmosphere the the level of opposition so for players to then go and play against you know probably PSV strongest 11 you'd say not not far off it is an unbelievable experience for all of them you know they have to go and handle it

9:10 they have to they can't hear you know coaches from the side shouting they can't probably hear teammates shouting from the side as well so everything's you know through Instinct and picking up things from themselves and you know knowing around them what's around them at the time and I think you know I agree with Tomo I think is decision making and you know build a play in the Midfield phase was really really good but he also enjoyed him trying to make killer pass you know you want play to try and express themselves you know in the right are and express themselves and show you know show people what they're about tell s sorry I'm just thinking now them showboating there the end I was thinking oh my goodness if there was a Jimmy case out there and I I was thinking oh my goodness they're playing against 10 men and they're all back heels and flicks and all this sorry about that Rob no that's absolutely fine I've not got an image of a Dutch BL being in in orbit somewhere booted High into the night sky

9:58 just give me just give me just give me one 5050 uh We've speak spoken a little bit there about James McConnell tonight and he's been speaking to Mark not the result you boys would have wanted but what was that like as an experience for you overall yeah it was obviously a good experience like you say it was very disappointing in the result we thought like we could have got something from the game especially especially at half time we think we should have been comfortably winning the game young Defender he's going to learn from it loads he's going to learn from it loads you know he'll be you'll have many more more experiences like this so yeah obviously his head's a bit down but it's part of the game in the end he's toen for the team and obviously got set up well on thank you thank you let's get the thoughts then of our like expected I think a fful game

10:44 with many goals I think everybody expected that before the game um for two reasons maybe one of one of the one of the reasons I think two managers always want to press High want to bring the ball out from the back so sometimes you see then certain mistakes but it's always eventful uh and for the other reason because um both teams uh maybe mainly ours was not playing in the setup that we usually do so then you see in some moments uh that we defend in a way what what probably is not expected if we play with uh with all of our starters but still in the end we were able to uh definitely make it make a game out of it uh with all especially end with all these youngsters on the pitch so eventful would be my word to

11:31 use it's the first time that Federico K has completed 90 minutes did that feel like a big step forward for him tonight and he seems to be getting a lot sharper yeah yeah and he got a knock with the penalty so uh that took him a a few minutes before he kept going again but uh I think it's been seven eight or nine months ago maybe maybe even longer I don't know exactly he played 90 it's the same for Jayden dance it was the same for James McConnell so we had quite a lot of players that were not used to playing so many minutes in the last six or seven months so it's especially for them also important that they make these 90 minutes and were able to keep competing during 90 minutes uh okay jayen couldn't manage to keep the play the whole game but federo in the end was still sprinting trying to do his work so

12:18 positive yeah you must have a hell of a lot of Sympathy for the poor lad who just come on there only played four minutes what what could you say to him to lift the spirits cuz so cruel really what happened to him at the end yeah it's cruel but uh uh he's never played first team football yet and then to make your debut the Champions League level is probably the hardest way of making a wbut and um yeah I think he he he misinterpreted the situation yeah and that is uh immediately a problem at this level or a premier league level so it's a it's a big moment for him to learn from um and it is cruel indeed you think in A Moment Like This 10 minutes before the

13:04 end going to make my debut in a pre in not in the Premier League in Champions League and a few minutes later you go off with a red card that is always uh difficult but yeah a career mainly is not always positive it's there are also negatives and he has to fight very hard to make sure he will ever play a second Champions League game again which is not going to be easy but hopefully he will hi honor um do you think there's a chance that any of the young players that played tonight might be allowed to go out on loan before the transfer deadline there's always a chance in life um and at the moment we have most of our players fit so um we will have this

13:49 discussion tomorrow I think me and Richard about these players but there's definitely one uh of them that will not go on loan and I think you know which one I mean Jaden James McConnell I wouldn't say definitely but I liked him a lot today so maybe now the end result of today that would be good for him to go somewhere and play but he is also some a player that hasn't played in the last six or seven months uh 90 minutes because he was injured for a while and he impressed me a lot today okay there's a thoughts
