-TIMESTAMPS-
00:00 - Intro.
00:06 - Saliba: I can't tell you.
00:41 - Saliba and Trossard: Matter of days.
00:48 - Havertz: Matter of weeks.
01:09 - Gabriel: Matter of weeks.
01:25 - Rotation: Opportunity for energy to be bouncing at the emirates. Brentford is vital.
02:04 - Our motivation is to be better than everyone. We don't need more motivation.
02:33 - Rest players like rice: We do it only to have the best options on the pitch.
02:51 - Opportunity for Ben white?: Opportunity for everyone.
03:16 - Physical Brentford: every game we play, the intensity we need in the premier league is incredible. You need to dominate it to win.
04:08 - Daniel Farke comments: the game evolves, rules evolves and that will change. You see the amount of time we played on Sunday, that needs to be looked at.
04:36 - understand his frustration: especially if you're on the other side of it.
05:00 - Rice exceeding expectations?: He's close to what we believed he could get to. He's incredibly consistent and is stepping up in big matches.
05:44 - Mikel Merino: that's the thing you learn when you sign a player. I knew he could offer more than he did. The player that is willing to learn, it's difficult to put limits to that.
06:36 - Norgaard: what I saw on the pitch and everything as a leader. As soon as I spoke to him he was so excited to join us.
07:13 - goalkeeper/Raya: Amazing goalkeeper. Great goalkeeper and we tried to sign him when I first joined. Phenomenal journey.
07:47 - Ray best signing you've made?: certainly one who's taken us to a different level.
08:10 - set piece goals?: I don't know any team that doesn't like scoring set pieces. We're all set piece teams.
09:00 - Fans: you can always be more positive. That's where you have to leave the standards.
09:35 - Frustration for injuries: Leo got injured, managing Martinelli's minutes. The fact Willie trained the day before and then felt uncomfortable. People filling in has been key.
10:24 - prepared to deal with injuries: Yes, this season has been the worst especially in the frontline. We learned and built a squad that is more reliable.
11:07 - Havertz setback: He was doing everything and couldn't get to the next level. We look like we've unlocked it. Can't wait to have him back.
12:02 - Rice new contract?: Now he's become a lighthouse. He fully deserves it, the way he's behaved. At the highest level, I'm sure he'll be here for many years.
12:47 - Lessons learned: Spurs, I learnt a lot from the international break, then played a team that we had to learn, Bayern brought different qualities, and last weekend the same.
13:55 - aggressiveness: the first thing everyone does is be aggressive, teams won't change it.
14:57 - training sessions, alter preparations: there is a balance to it. We play three days or four days after. We are used to it.
15:43 - Games
