1
I'll start today, just want to say a few things really, I think it's important...
2
I think recently we haven't had a good time, I think that's pretty obvious, so I totally accept that, what we're going through at the moment.
3
We had five months of relative success in a spell where I was happy with a lot of things
4
that I was seeing and that we were doing as a team.
5
We haven't done well enough lately, I think that's pretty obvious to say, and we've had a spell that we're really not happy with.
6
Wednesday was a bad night.
7
It was a bad night for a lot of reasons,
8
and it was a bad night that kind of hurt a lot and obviously hurt me to see us play that way,
9
to see how the game panned out.
10
It was, as I said after the game, it was really unacceptable for us to play like that and to be like that.
11
The supporters are a huge part of this football club for me, to see the supporters have to make the effort and the time
12
and spend the money to come and support us on Wednesday
13
and have the feeling after the game like we all felt was a tough moment.
14
I think that's pretty obvious.
15
My responsibility is to get a team on a pitch that represents this football club,
16
represents the supporters and they can be proud of it with the identity
17
that we show and we have gone away from
18
that just recently in certain games which I'm totally fully aware of and definitely doing something about.
19
So I think it's important that we all recognise that, I certainly recognise it.
20
And our supporters are the utmost of importance to me
21
and this football club and for them to feel like they felt for five months at the start of the season,
22
at the start of the year, for us to have that about us and that connection and
23
that real vigour and intensity and enjoyment and passion that we all felt
24
through that period was something that we need to get back to, and we will get back to it, and I fully believe that,
25
but I think it's important that we recognise that we haven't been doing that.
26
The foundation of this football club and the values of this football club have been put down and etched for many,
27
many years, and I totally understand, and I get every single one of them, and it comes down to humility, it comes down to being humble,
28
it comes down to being hard -working and being really proud to work hard
29
and being proud to live up to their values.
30
There's a resilience about this football club that's been shown for a long, long time.
31
Whether that's bouncing back from adversity, whether that's comebacks, whether that's late goals, whether that's success, whether that's sustaining success,
32
is the resilience in this football club that runs very, very deep.
33
I've seen it with my own eyes, I've felt it.
34
I'm aware of some of the individuals and know them closely who have been a big part of that history.
35
I said it after the game, Manchester United is always bigger.
36
It always has been, always will be bigger than any single individual.
37
Bigger than me, bigger than any of the players, and it always has been.
38
I'm fortunate enough to know some players myself and play with some Ryan Giggs, arguably one of the greatest to play for this football club.
39
It was never about Ryan Giggs, it was about Manchester United.
40
Wayne Rooney was top goal scorer of this football club.
41
His biggest thing was playing for the team, sacrificing for the team and what was good for Manchester United.
42
Sir Alex Ferguson, the best manager of all time, the greatest for me and working with him and his main priority was Manchester United.
43
Going back to Sir Matt, Sir Bobby, the resilience was beyond belief of what they showed and the way they rebuilt this football club.
44
Again, it was based on being humble, having humility and hard work.
45
We can never lose that and I won't let us lose that.
46
We've had it for a spell.
47
I feel very strongly about that.
48
I think it inspires me a lot to live up to
49
that and keep driving that with the players in the group
50
that we have shown for a good period of time and that we're capable of it.
51
At the moment, yeah, we're in a moment where it's not gone well.
52
So we need to show exactly what it means and respect this football club, respect what it takes to be here,
53
respect what it takes to win, what you have to do to win.
54
I'm not entitled to be here
55
Entitlement cannot be at this football club
56
We're not entitled to win
57
We've won in the past
58
We've got an incredible history
59
But that doesn't mean that you're entitled to just win I'm fully aware of that, it takes hard work, it takes a lot of sacrifice.
60
You've got to invest yourself in the football club
61
and you've got to do a lot of things that maybe aren't so nice,
62
but you've got to do it for each other and you've got to win.
63
And I think it's important we live up to that
64
and it's important for me to push those values and it's important for our supporters to feel that moving forward.
65
We've had it, we've kind of lost our way a little bit if I'm totally honest.
66
and we'll get it back.
67
I'm totally convinced we'll get it back.
68
We respect this football club, respect what it takes because it's very, very important to me.
69
Hi, Michael.
70
It's hard for us to follow that, but obviously there's naturally been a lot of talk the last 24 hours, 36 hours.
71
Who have you been speaking to in the club hierarchy and how have you spoken to the players after your disappointment?
72
Yeah, we've spoken.
73
Obviously, there's those conversations going on, I think it's pretty obvious how we're all feeling.
74
It's pretty obvious how we're all feeling, a reaction, a reaction from me.
75
The responsibility for me to be in this position is to lead, you know.
76
It is my responsibility to whatever goes on the pitch
77
and what we are as a group and what we look like and what we feel like, if anything.
78
I'll hold that umbrella for me to get wet and for everyone else to stay dry.
79
That's the position I'm in and it's a privileged position.
80
Discussions going on, getting the players in a good frame of mind
81
and well organised to put in a good performance on Sunday.
82
You've spoken about the club being more than only one person and the ability to fight back from adversity.
83
Are you still confident that you can be the man that doesn't?
84
Yeah, yeah, 100%.
85
Michael, how much is this hurting you, the situation right now, the speech that you just gave there at the start of the press conference,
86
clearly came from the heart, you spoke very openly and very honestly about how you felt after the game the other night as well,
87
you've been through a lot with this club, you've done a lot of things,
88
how much is this hurting you and how much pride have you got to sort this out,
89
not just for yourself but for everyone else as well and to move on from what is undoubtedly a very difficult moment?
90
Yeah, it hurts an awful lot, but it doesn't stop me.
91
There's a big difference, you know, that hurt is used as pure motivation for an inspiration, if anything, to want more,
92
to expect more, to work for more and to get us going in that different direction.
93
We can be, you know, it feels at times that it can be a long way away,
94
but it doesn't take too much to flip the other way and we're more than capable of doing that.
95
I totally believe that. and we will.
96
We'll win football matches.
97
We've got a very tough one on Sunday.
98
A very, very good team that we're playing against on Sunday
99
and I'm not suggesting now all of a sudden that that becomes an easy game because it doesn't.
100
We've got to respect the game, we've got to respect what it takes to win.
101
Do you get the sense that everyone feels the same way that you do?
102
Yeah, I do.
103
Yeah, 100 % do.
104
And if you don't, this is not the place for you.
105
Michael, talk about getting the players in the right frame.
106
I just wanted to ask you a few questions about Bruno Fernandes.
107
First of all, how is he
108
and his family after the news from a few nights ago about his home being burnt out?
109
Yeah, I mean, it's an awful thing to hear about and to go through.
110
We're obviously doing a lot of work to support Bruno and his family.
111
Thankfully, they weren't directly affected, even though it's an awful situation.
112
So I'm not playing it down in any way, but yeah, we're doing everything to support.
113
Off the back of Lissandra's comments, Bruno's comments after the game.
114
Have you had some honest conversations with him, the rest of the squad, around tactics, the direction of the club?
115
Because on the outside, it does feel like the changing room is maybe divided, maybe that's not the right word,
116
but all isn't well at the moment in that dressing room.
117
It's not divided, no. It's not divided.
118
We just need to get back to doing what we do best and we will.
119
Michael Lennon, the club has continually changed manager since Ferguson went
120
and there's been some short -term bounces
121
but the reality is the club has just ended up being mired in the same cycle.
122
Can you, you're obviously clearly under pressure,
123
but can you just talk about why you feel it is so important at this moment that the club break that cycle,
124
they might have to go through some pain to move forward?
125
And do you fear that if there's obviously more change, this cycle is just going to keep repeating itself?
126
I certainly don't fear it, no. Not at all.
127
I understand what we can achieve.
128
I know what it needs to look like to get to
129
the stage where you're winning enough football games to get through that spell as well, but principles...
130
Values are so, so important to the football club, definitely to me.
131
We can win games, we can lose games, maybe, hopefully not, but at some point we're going to do it.
132
It's how you do it, a little bit, and what it feels like is important.
133
And that spirit, that unity, that togetherness needs to be there.
134
And it is there and it will be there.
135
I'll make sure it's there anyway.
136
So I'm just looking for the solutions to move us forward.
137
That's plain and simple as that.
138
Just on that togetherness and the emotions and the values and stuff, Dan's mentioned it there, like Lissandra Martin is coming out last week.
139
Bruno made some pretty pointed comments.
140
Does that have to stop?
141
Have you spoken to the players and said, look, we're killing ourselves in public here.
142
We have got to come together and stop this sort of behaviour?
143
Yeah, we need to move forward in the right direction, for sure.
144
We need to do things to enable us to do that, so it's pretty clear.
145
Michael, in your kind of speech just then, you used some words, humble,
146
humility, sacrifice, hard work, and you spoke about the great players of the past and what success has been built on.
147
Obviously, talent is another thing.
148
On Wednesday, you said that if you don't run forward and you don't run back, you won't win football matches.
149
It seems a fairly basic thing to do.
150
How do you persuade these players, these group of players, who your job rests on ultimately,
151
how do you persuade them that they need those four things that you spoke about, the humbleness and humility, as well as talent,
152
to achieve what you need?
153
I think it's pretty clear as day.
154
I'm not telling you anything new.
155
I haven't definitely invented anything new.
156
That's the make -up of any good football team.
157
You have to earn the right to be better than your opponent.
158
You have to do more than your opponent to win a game.
159
That's as simple as that.
160
It doesn't change.
161
It never changes.
162
That's what we need to do to win more games.
163
Michael, you obviously, you know, love this club, are in it for the right reasons, and I think we all,
164
you know, assess you as a really good guy, etc. Isn't this then what made Bruno Fernandes' sort of questioning of your tactics,
165
basically your authority, so sort of invidious and divisive, and actually this is the man, the player you trusted as the captain,
166
the leader, who shows an example, and he goes and does that.
167
I mean, how do you solve that?
168
Would you consider taking the captaincy off him, dropping him?
169
You know, because it's about the collective, as you just said, he there himself has basically gone against that, right?
170
Yeah, the most important thing for me is the team, first and foremost, is the squad, is the dynamics in the squad and,
171
again, it's about the football club.
172
I always do what's best for the football club.
173
So, would you consider taking the captaincy off him or dropping him?
174
I'm just saying, whatever the situation is, I'll always do what's best for the football club.
175
Michael, just on Bruno again, have you spoken to him about what he said?
176
Because obviously that caused a lot of noise that came after a difficult situation as it is.
177
It poured a bit more fuel on the fire.
178
Yeah, if I've spoken to him or haven't spoken to him, I don't think this is the time to go into too much detail.
179
Just on a similar theme to what James was asking earlier, those values about self -sacrifice, humility, etc. Do you think the players understand that?
180
How important is it that they do understand that?
181
It's vital that they do, yeah.
182
They have to.
183
They have to.
184
That's what I'm saying.
185
You have done it and we've shown a spell and it's there.
186
They've felt it as a group.
187
They know what it takes to win certain games.
188
I know you can question things about last season and the run
189
and the amount of games we played and all
190
that the fact of the matter is we went on a
191
really really good run the best run in the league out of everybody at that point
192
so it's there it's there we've got to find it individually got to find it as a team
193
and i've got to find it for everyone

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
