 We should have won the game. We should have been more ruthless, Rosenior said afterwards. There was a lack of penetration in the first half, second half we had more moments without the right final pass or finish and that's really disappointing.
|
|
That wasn't on Wesley, that was on our performance, Rosenior said. From the first goal, we lacked decision, I wanted us to create wave after wave of attack. We were too safe in possession.
|
|
A marking assignment was missed, Rosenior said. I'm not here to throw players under the bus - I will always protect my players, and I'll deal with it during the week. But there was a player assigned that duty who marked the wrong man.
|
|
This is a very, very complex situation, said Rosenior. When you speak about discrimination or race or gender.
|
|
Mamadou was everything that I expected, Rosenior said. I know Mamadou so well. I think the acclimatisation, adaptation process for him hopefully will be faster because he understands the way I want to play, and he already showed that today.
|
|
Everybody knows what I think about Mamadou, Rosenior said. I think he's got the potential to be a world class centre-back.
|
|
We've had a lot to contend with the last couple of days, a couple of fitness tests this morning, Rosenior said. Normally I name the team the day before.
|
|
Reece [James] and Pedro [Neto] had fitness tests but aren't available which is a shame, Rosenior said.
|
|
Rosenior told the BBC: I thought the right person scored the goal, I thought Enzo Fernandez's performance was absolutely world class.
|
I think my players can play in big games, Rosenior said. You look at Enzo Fernandez, who has won a World Cup, and the group as a whole winning two trophies last year.
|
He is going through a really difficult time for personal reasons, said Rosenior.
|
My players, I look at maybe Enzo Fernandez , who has won a World Cup, and the group winning two trophies last year, Rosenior said. They can play in big games, they can perform in big games, and it is definitely a big game on Tuesday.
|
That's the beauty of being a head coach within a structure, Rosenior told reporters. I'm not an old-school manager that's got out the phone and is making calls.
|
I've had very, very good conversations with him already, probably four in my office, Rosenior said last week. I think he's sick of my office, where I've said to him 'If you play with intensity with your quality, the quality comes out'.
