00:00It needs to reflect the Premier League. The Premier League is a very physical league,
00:03is a very physically demanding league, is a very direct league.
00:07I think we should be brave enough to play like an England squad and should not try to copy other
00:13nations, other styles too much. I think it should reflect the values of the country and of the
00:20strongest league in the world, which is the Premier League. So we will try to implement a
00:24direct style, an attacking style and we will try to increase our rhythm in our game, increase the
00:30intensity in our game and we will try to do it of course in a crash course from Monday
00:38and unleash the potential for Friday. I don't think that a lot is missing.
00:43Obviously it's missing a little bit because we are now consecutive in semi-finals and finals
00:49and the feeling is that it's just a little step to bring it over the line. I am very convinced that
00:59if we want to be prepared to be in the next final and to make the last step,
01:04we need to do it now in the first camp. As boring as it may sound for you,
01:09if you go on a journey it starts with the first step. This journey starts clearly with the first
01:13camp. We only have six camps, we only have 60 days. We need to take care of every single day
01:20and make sure that we are on point. If we do this, hopefully the last step takes
01:26care of itself. We need a bit of luck, we need the momentum."
