"Not yet, we are totally focused on our game against Madrid, Fulham, then this one. It is a big achievement. We are very happy, we are one club. Hopefully they can finish the job." Injury update, Pulisic taking Hazard's number "The downside si that people will always compare you. Right now, he is in a good place. Kovacic not in the squad, Toni will play with a mask. Everybody else trained." On Real "I am not sure if they will play 5-3-2 again, maybe they will go 4-3-3. From this decision, things change. I believe that it is not about formation, what Real Madrid play, it is about how we play. Are we brave enough? Are we courageous enough?" On contract extension talks "No, it is not time. There is no time for this right now." On Kante "Where to? He is the guy you need to win trophies, that is why we are so, so happy he is here. I was dreaming, fighting for this player at any club I have coached. Now he is my player. He is unbelievable. He is key, he will be key tomorrow." On changes tomorrow "Is Zinedine Zidane with you? I would like to help you with your question buit I will not give you any hints. I have my ideas in my mind but I am too long in this business that anything can happen in this last training session."   source - football.london / Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
