“We knew it was going to be difficult. In the first 20 minutes we were a bit sloppy, it left the game open. We didn’t really threaten and didn’t have enough urgency. We were really sharp in the second half, Miguel (Merino) gave us something with Trossard playing on the left.”

On Miguel Merino: ‘He can do it. He has a dangerous sense and great timing in the box. We were almost at a different level of concern. We were compose, scored two great goals and could have scored one or two more.

On youngsters Ethan Vaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly: “Physically, they’re built exceptionally. Emotionally, mentally, they’re so calm and their decision-making on the pitch is impressive.”

“That’s what we want. We’ll take it day by day and take a lot of good things from the second half. But we also know that the first half wasn’t good enough to win the game.”
