Blunt defeat
"What happened is that we entered the game very badly. A high level competition, we entered very badly. At eight minutes we went 2-0. There was no response from us to change something. The first part was difficult, no We never entered the game. We have lacked everything. Especially intensity. What is necessary at this level. "
Reasons to talk to his players
"They scored seven goals, it can't happen. That is also known to the players, who are disappointed. You don't have to spin it over. It's a preseason game. They've been better at everything. And now is. There is nothing more to talk about. "
The players are failing him
"No, nothing. We are preparing a season and being calm. We have to be on August 17, with the first League game. For now we have lacked things for sure tonight."
Atmosphere: "It's a good stadium. People from all over the world come. We couldn't win for them."
Ease to win the back of Atlético
"When you start with the 0-2 it is more complicated. Then there are gaps and that has happened to us. I am thinking about the start of the game. In such a match if there is no intensity you can get into difficulties"
Hazard
"It is not a low performance of Hazard. They are all. I am the first. We are wrong in everything, especially at the beginning."
Lack of motivation: "We will be motivated. I have no doubt about that. Our season is going to be good. I am convinced. Today we cannot be happy. For the rest I am convinced that I have a team that will compete and very well. That's it. We have to go back and get some rest. "
The defeat affects him
"It doesn't worry me but it hurts. When you lose ... you don't play to lose. But that's it, we can't look back. It's a bad game and you have to think about what we've done."
And now what?
Rest and think about the start of LaLiga.
