TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro. 00:06 - Were in a good momentum. 00:44 - We’ve got an amazing squad with great signings. It’s good to push everyone. Everyone will benefit. 01:34 - Arteta: Intense manager who wants everyone. He’s a good character on the touchline. The crowd see how committed he is. 02:48 - Atletico interested in signing you?: always rumour and talks in the transfer window. Every window there’s a lot of speculation, I’m proud to be at this club. 03:36 - 6 goals in 4 Spain matches: The way we train here and prepare makes you adapt to every situation. Maybe I wasn’t used being in the box but playing up front has helped me. 04:40 - Zubimendi: It’s good to be honest. I’ve played with him under three different coaches. There’s little tweaks to each one. It’s great to play with players of that calibre. 05:37 - Gyokeres: I don’t think he’s taking a lot of time to adapt. He’s giving us many options, you should see the data. He’s providing a lot for us. I’m sure he wants to score. 06:46 - Adaptation to premier league: when everyone says there’s a big difference, the tempo and rhythm is high. Sometimes it’s madness on the pitch. La Liga is more tactical and patient, premier league is more about going to the opposition goal and score. 07:50 - defensive record: you have to love to defend and not concede goals. The mentality we have is crucial. 09:00 - Mikel’s fire: I can’t give you any examples. It’s how you treat players in different situations. Sometimes you have to manage things in a different way. We are lucky to have one of if not the best coach in the world. 10:12 - NFL fan: I was lucky a couple summers ago to do commercial work with Cam Jordan. We spoke about his movement. Mentally you can learn a lot. 11:15 - Time to work on set pieces: unfortunately with the schedule we don’t have as much time as Nico would
