Prática de Shadowing: Bellingham: "We can really do something special!" | Interview in Marbella - Aprenda a falar inglês com vídeo

Honestly, I just completely lost myself.

I can't remember what I was doing.

I was just running around.

When you look at it on your phone, it says that Borussia Dortmund are sixth and there's no way we should be there in the table.

I'd like to think my voice has got a bit deeper and I'm a bit better looking.

And I'm slightly better looking.

Jude, the Kigan magazine just crowned you as the best Bundesliga midfielder.

And they even claim that you are a bubbling volcano, but in a controlled way.

So how do you react to that?

Yeah, it's really nice to be appreciated for what you're doing on the pitch and for people to have that opinion.

I think we live in a time where it's easy to go against the grain

and just say something's bad when you don't really think it.

So it's nice that people give you praise for when you're performing well.

But ultimately, I'm just trying to help the team, really.

Like I always say in every interview I do with you, and it's not me being cliche, that's my main focus and I know the qualities that I can bring to a team.

And I'm just glad it's been recognised.

It is recognised.

But overall, how do you feel at the moment?

Do you already feel like playing football and going at it again?

I'm itching to play now in Bundesliga.

Really?

Yeah, really itching to get back.

I know we've got two games here in Marbella and I don't want to look ahead.

But it's really hard when you've got all the other leagues are playing

and you're watching it on TV and you just think, I can't wait to get back to it.

After the World Cup, I was thinking like mentally, I was just drained physically.

And I said to myself, I want to have a big rest and a nice long rest.

And then about two weeks into it, I was just like, no, no, I need to go back and get to work.

And finally we're back and yeah, I can't wait to get going again.

So you said two weeks in, so how long have you been on holidays in total?

So I can't remember when we went out, but then...

So we went out like...

I could tell you, we'll talk about that later.

We went out, I think it's been three weeks, just over three weeks.

So yeah, I was really grateful that the club gave me that long to just refresh.

So you feel, from what I've learned, you feel recovered and you're itching to play again.

Yeah, still managing some things from the World Cup, but I think overall I feel ready to go.

That's good.

If I'm not mistaken, you celebrated New Year's in Birmingham.

Tell me.

Yeah, I was in Birmingham for all my breaks.

So I was there from the day we got knocked out

to the day we had to be back in for the testing and stuff.

So yeah, I loved it.

People came to me when I got back and they said, where was you?

And I just said I was in Birmingham.

And then it was all a bit surprised that I didn't go on holiday.

I didn't go to Dubai or wherever else.

But I think when you're so often away from home, it's nice to just be back home with your family, with your friends, you know, and know a lot of people like around the around the city.

And they can there's just there's always things to do, really.

So yeah, I went out

and had a good time with them just to take the pressure off my mind really and yeah it felt really good.

So now you're here for the first time with the team in Mabeya in this training camp.

How do you like it?

How do you sum it up so far?

Yeah it's the first time I've come here.

I think the facilities that we're training at are brilliant.

The hotel's amazing.

You know you get the sense straight away that you feel

so welcome that they really want you here and it's like almost a pleasure for them to have you here.

Whereas for us it's like a pleasure to be here.

So there's that like mutual respect from both

and it's just really nice to come out here and have a change of environment for the next few days

and ultimately just have the best place to work hard and get ourselves ready for the for the Rook Runder.

I would say the weather is probably a little better than it was in Birmingham.

Yes, slightly.

So had you had the time to have a little beach promenade walk and stroll around?

To be fair, I do, I've been by the pool in between sessions.

Yeah, yeah, I've been and the cafe down the bottom.

I might go and have a walk out on the beach before the game tomorrow or the day after.

But yeah, I've had a little explore.

I like to be by the pool, you know, when it's sunny, you've got to make the most of it, don't you?

So yeah, I've had a nice time away from the pitch.

But I mean, working so hard, you probably must be tired after training twice a day.

And then maybe rest is more important than stroll around.

Yeah, definitely.

I think, you know, it's the perfect balance because you need to, you want to be back and you need to get back you're back now

and it's a lot of work and it is tough for the body.

You go two sessions where the intensity is really high.

It's normal that you're going to feel stiff and tired.

But I think when we've got this hotel where you have so much to do to relax, you feel good and ready to go the next day.

And I think that's the most important thing that both complements each other.

So, of course, we want to have a little outlook or a venture intern outlook with you.

But we're going to talk about your goals, your personal goals, She goes with the BVB, but before that we want to look back a little bit.

And to be exact, 10th of December, England lost the quarterfinals against France, so there you have it.

That's the day.

How long did it take you to come to terms with it, that you were eliminated?

I think you come to terms with it pretty quickly, to be honest.

You accept the fact that you've gone out quickly, but I think your mind...

I still think about the game now at times.

You know, I had...

There was like an instance in training where I had a shot

and I thought that was just like the one that I had in the France game.

And if I put it more to the left, would we have gone through?

You know, I was involved for the first penalty where I flicked it to Bukayo

and the second one when I put the passing behind to Mason.

And I always think, what if I just put it on Mason's toe

and he went and scored and then there would have been no second penalty.

So you overthink things, but I think you come to terms with it quickly

100

because you know you can't change it whether you like it

101

or not and it's hard to tell yourself that

102

but you know you're on the plane home

103

and you like we gave everything we had a tournament

104

that the country can be proud of we put up a

105

really strong fight against one of the best teams in the world we went out narrowly

106

and yeah you learn to kind of use it as ammunition for the next ones

107

and i think that's that's how i've taken it man yeah

108

i would say overall it was a a good world cup from from England's side

109

or from England's perspective and you overall had a very strong impression at the tournament.

110

How do you look back on your personal World Cup?

111

I think it was good, I think it was really good, I was really proud of it.

112

I think you can't be satisfied because you go with the intention of winning it

113

and I really did feel like we had the chance to, especially after we got through Senegal and you realise only three more games.

114

I think had we beaten France and we, you know, gone through you know who knows what can happen um

115

but it's all lifts now um

116

but yeah i felt like personally i felt really at home

117

i enjoyed the kind of the pressure of the games

118

and the responsibility that the manager gave me um i think my best game was probably senegal

119

when i was most free and

120

when you know i got given the license to kind of be decisive

121

and roam around the pitch and stuff and i think that's

122

when when you saw my best performance of the tournament and it was just

123

just nice to play with that freedom and you know regardless of the pressure

124

that had so many good teammates around me that just kept encouraging me to do what I was doing.

125

Sounds good, so let's check out the walk-up for now, come back to the Bundesliga.

126

Now, a little further back, do you actually remember the very first time we met actually?

127

Was it Bad Regards?

128

It was Bad Regards, yeah, you said absolutely correct.

129

We have a little look into that interview that we both had.

130

Look at you.

131

Both our hairs got better as well.

132

Jude, tell me, how do you cope with all that pressure, being so young and so talented?

133

I think pressure, you create it yourself through lack of preparation and confidence.

134

And luckily I don't lack confidence and I always try and stay prepared at all times.

135

So I'm always quite confident that I can achieve the things I want to achieve.

136

What do you think if you look at that video, if you look at that old Jude and hear yourself saying those things?

137

I'd like to think my voice has got a bit deeper and I'm a bit better looking.

138

And I'm slightly better looking.

139

But other than that, I'd probably agree with what I was saying.

140

Pressure's a privilege at a club like Borussia Dortmund.

141

You can kind of patch it however you want and say, you know, I don't feel it, but you have to understand that there's pressure playing for such a big club and I definitely understand that.

142

I think I relish it, I enjoy the kind of the big games, the big moments playing for such a big club.

143

So, yeah, it's a privilege to be put in them situations.

144

So I'd agree with 17-year-old you.

145

From today's perspective, you can only say that, hearing that and remembering what you have said in that interview, you weren't too cheeky, you weren't too self-confident.

146

But two and a half years later, you're still here, you've been wearing the captain's armband already.

147

What would you have said if I told you, like, just wait two and a half years and you will be captain this team onto the pitch?

148

I would have said no chance in two and a half years, you know, give me maybe eight or so.

149

But in two and a half I would have said no chance too early.

150

But I think the way that my teammates and the staff that I've had, the coach have had, have helped me to kind of develop has been really, really good.

151

It's given me the platform to, you know, I came to the club, talented lad and whatever else, but I've added elements to my game that have kind of taken it to the next level.

152

And I think that's down to them mainly, you know, I've put the work in, but it's them that have put me in the environment to make it happen.

153

They've added their leadership side to my game as well, particularly with Marco Rosa and this season.

154

So yeah, it's just learning every year, taking stuff in my stride and trying to use all the experiences

155

that I've got so far and other people's experiences when I talk to them to add it to my game.

156

Just try and be a sponge and pick things up as much as possible.

157

Yeah, and you seem to improve year after year from what I can tell.

158

But you touched on that just now.

159

What aspects of your game, you would say, have improved the most since back then?

160

I'd probably say, like I said about the World Cup games, I'd probably say I'm a bit more decisive now in terms of when I get into the final third.

161

I think I always think when I'm on the pitch that I can affect the game, whether it's with a goal or an assist.

162

I think my kind of game, the way I play, it's, and the aim for me is to be effective without that.

163

But I think when you can add that, it's so much more valuable to the team and to score lines, of course.

164

So I think that's one thing that's, you know, majorly improved.

165

And you can see it with the numbers, even though I'm not massive into, you know, a player's this good or that good based on their numbers.

166

But it is evidence that I'm getting in the box more and I'm being more clinical.

167

And yeah, I'd say there's bits of everything that's improved, to be fair

168

and then I've still got a long way to go on everything and other bits.

169

You know, defensively, I still think I can position myself better at times.

170

I think I can pick up on more balls.

171

And even though now I've started scoring a lot more, I still think I can score more, to be honest.

172

There's been a few games where I've had like chances that are, you know, not massive.

173

I had a few that were like massive ones that I've missed and I've really kicked myself for a few weeks after.

174

I know you do.

175

And then I've had like half ones that I still think about.

176

I got, for example, a header in the derby.

177

I saw it the other day on Twitter and I had to keep rewinding it just to see how I didn't score.

178

It was a great save, but that kind of mentality where it's just like I can always be better at everything.

179

I think that's exactly what makes you better all the time.

180

You checked a lot of boxes there, but you also have changed physically.

181

We saw that, Justin.

182

I think your shoulders got a little broader.

183

Did you particularly work on that as well?

184

Something that I've, especially in the last two seasons, I've really gone to the physical team and put my goals out there of what I want to be.

185

I think going to the national team helped me a lot because you saw the players.

186

I'd say the Premier League is more physical and you've seen that from the players that come to the national team.

187

So first hand I see how strong they are.

188

And I think if I can get myself to a level where I'm physically dominant as well as technically,

189

then you can really start to affect games a lot more.

190

So yeah, it's something that I've gone to the physical staff and really wanted to improve on.

191

And they've been brilliant in helping me and giving me the tools to get bigger, get stronger and improve my game.

192

Yours is a physical game as well, I'd say.

193

And you go out there for 90 minutes fighting and even if you're bettered up a little bit, you're still trying to intercept passes.

194

You can sometimes see yourself lying on the floor, stretched out like a starfish and exhausted.

195

How much of that fight that you have in you, how much is that will or just endurance training?

196

I'd say a lot of it's mental to be honest.

197

Just the idea that you don't give up regardless of what's going on.

198

Especially in the games that are closer and we're winning 1-0 or we're trailing.

199

It's just, for me, it's never an option.

200

It doesn't even, like, come into my mind that, you know, you've done enough or, you know, like, you'll be fine.

201

If you don't press this ball, it'll be fine.

202

It's not your fault.

203

It's like, no, because while I'm on the pitch, I've got to do everything I can to make sure I win.

204

And that's more mental.

205

But, of course, you've got to prepare yourself physically.

206

I think that's another thing that I've learned so much from the experienced players is how they prepare their body.

207

So, you know, I came from Birmingham and, you know, the lads were doing it there

208

but I kind of just thought I'm 16 and I'm fine

209

so I'll always be fine when it's not the case

210

and you pick up stuff from the senior pros

211

and you know like for example now I'm big into the ice baths

212

and stuff like that and all the recovery stuff

213

and I just think everything like that it's the small things

214

that you think I'll miss it for today

215

and you never know how it will cost you come the weekend

216

so yeah it's stuff that I pay a lot more attention to now.

217

I know for a fact that you really hate losing.

218

But there were a couple of losses this season as well, so how would you look back on, let's say the first half of this season?

219

Yeah, I think obviously in the Champions League we were really impressive.

220

I think we had a really good game plan going into those games and we were really effective.

221

Sevilla away is probably my favourite game I've ever played in.

222

The City game, even though we lost, we showed really clear signs of how we can play at our best.

223

And then the other games as well.

224

In In the Bundesliga it's been a little bit frustrating because I think the main thing's been inconsistency.

225

I think we showed that we can beat anyone but at the same time lose to anyone,

226

which is really frustrating because with the quality that we have, that shouldn't be the case.

227

We should be able to turn up knowing that we can be more confident that we're going to win a game.

228

And that's not been the case in the first round.

229

So I think we need to find that consistency and we need to find that kind of that balance.

230

But it's difficult when we've got a lot of injuries as well.

231

The team's really inconsistent, you know, players come in and out and you don't really get a feel and be able to create relationships on the pitch, which is really important.

232

So, yeah, there's always things you can say to improve on.

233

You can go on for hours after a game's done.

234

But I think, you know, you've got to be able to review it while you're in the game and just try and change things there and then.

235

Is that itching or is that even fuel for you to go out there now

236

and correct this season as fast as possible and do things better?

237

Yeah, it definitely does bug me.

238

I think while I was at the World Cup I was really focused on the duty of England.

239

The World Cup finishes and you have to live with the fact

240

that on the table when you look at it on your phone it says that Borussia Dortmund are sixth.

241

There's no way we should be there in the table, even the talent and no disrespect to the teams above us right now but I feel in terms of quality,

242

in terms of player depth and in positions, we should be a lot higher than we are.

243

And I'm not afraid to say that to the lads

244

and say that to the staff because that's where our ambition should be.

245

But it's about doing instead of talking.

246

And I'm really, really motivated to turn it around.

247

And I think with the team that we've got, and if we all step our game a little bit more, we can really do something special in the second half of the season.

248

Something special is what I will show you next up.

249

And that's another scene from this season, is it?

250

Yeah, it's the late equalizer against Bayern.

251

Just put yourself back into that moment and, of course, in the end it felt probably like a victory.

252

So much enthusiasm, so much joy.

253

You can see everybody is really celebrating this.

254

How often do you review those scenes after the game, maybe on your mobile phone and live from that?

255

I think you see clips of it and you think like, you can't believe you're in the moment.

256

I always try and, you know, you try and enjoy moments while you're in them, but it's really difficult in football because you've got to move on so quickly.

257

So when you do see that and you get the chance to watch it again and on your phone and stuff, obviously the ones in the big games come up resurface more than the others

258

but you know that moment you you you know i just think what was i doing in that moment

259

and honestly i just completely lost myself i can't remember what

260

i was doing i was just running around you know going to tony

261

and yeah you just lose yourself in in the emotion you know you see

262

when i grab the camera there you know my eyes are

263

nearly watering from you know you know the effort we've put in and the feeling of

264

kind of relief that we haven't lost the game but i think i always go back to it like

265

From a competitive standpoint is, you know, we didn't win that game though.

266

And that's always the thing that kind of bugs me.

267

It's like, imagine if we could win the game like that.

268

And, you know, the games where we go down

269

and we don't come back and we end up losing and we wish we did more.

270

I think that's a perfect example of, you know, look at the celebration and look how much it would mean to us

271

if more often when we got into tough situations, we reacted like that instead of in a different way.

272

So, yeah, I think that's the motivation.

273

I don't know about you, but if I think back in my time after games, especially after those kind of games, I couldn't sleep.

274

I would lie awake for hours and hours.

275

So do you fall asleep?

276

Because you're a different kind of fighter on the pitch, obviously.

277

You must be exhausted physically.

278

So do you fall asleep after those games or do you lie in bed and think it all through again and again?

279

And what if and what if this and that?

280

So how is it with you?

281

To be honest, I don't sleep well after any games.

282

I don't really sleep great in the week either, to be honest.

283

You put so much pressure on yourself to fall asleep sometimes that you can't, but obviously we're talking about after games.

284

I do find it really difficult after games.

285

I think because your mind just never stops racing about, like you said, what ifs.

286

You have highs and you think, oh, that was brilliant.

287

But then there was a game against Stuttgart, for example, when we won 5-0 at home and I scored two and I thought, I should have scored a third.

288

And honestly, I swear to God, I was in bed and I was watching we get our clips back and I get mine sent to me.

289

And I had a look at the scene where I could have, like, took one more run and had a better angle for a shot.

290

And I just thought, why didn't I do that?

291

And it just bugs you to the point where you overthink it and then at some point you just switch off.

292

It's like you don't even remember falling asleep and then you wake up in the morning.

293

But yeah, it's really weird.

294

I think them kind of emotions, you know, I put so much into the game.

295

All the lads put so much into the game physically

296

and emotionally that you know when it's over it's hard to have

297

that cool down of adrenaline because it's just still pumping through you

298

and You're still thinking about everything that could have happened

299

But what's worth thinking about those situations where it could have gone even better or

300

The bad situation where you think about a poor game by far the bad ones.

301

Yeah, by far because you just always think you know

302

You know and I don't tend to think about what

303

if what would he have done

304

or what I don't really I think like what could i have done more always

305

and it's it's you know it's tough because you you'll hammer yourself

306

and you'll put yourself in the worst moods just thinking like

307

that but i think everyone has to have

308

that sense of reflection at some point where you know you can't just play football

309

and live life just seeing things that don't go well

310

and saying ah you know next week it'll be all right

311

but you know in the industry

312

that we're in the the last week affects the next week

313

and the week after that and obviously the table then

314

and then that affects the end of the season

315

and the the rook render of course

316

so it's it's hard not to to get in

317

that mode of like oh i could have done more could have done more could do more

318

but at a certain stage you do have to kind of

319

turn it into well i'll use how i could have done

320

more into what i'm gonna do more in the next game

321

and i think it's just finding that switch at the right time

322

that helps you prepare for the next game because Because that's all you can do really.

323

By the way, I love how you drop in some German every now and then.

324

I see us too, sitting here doing this in German.

325

I've not got the confidence to do it for the cameras, but with the lads...

326

I know, I know.

327

I have another short video for you.

328

This time it's probably...

329

It should be special to you, I'd say.

330

So it's Berlin, it's May 21, cup final.

331

Look at this.

332

That's a love story.

333

Right, isn't it?

334

I just couldn't stop looking at it.

335

It's beautiful.

336

I couldn't believe he won it though.

337

It was my first year and I cannot believe I've come to a club like Dortmund

338

and added to the history of the club.

339

You've created that same thing.

340

No, just added.

341

You've added because it's such a big club and they've done so much before you.

342

They will continue to do so much after you and whatever else.

343

But to have one where it's like that I was involved in that.

344

And to be honest, the feeling I got from that was I've got to do this again.

345

There must be at least some part of the reason why you chose to come to a club like Dortmund.

346

To be able to go for titles, to win titles.

347

100%.

348

And I feel like there's always clubs where the success feels a bit different.

349

But I think because the fans are so close with the team, because the city is so connected by football, It just means more.

350

And I think a win like that where the fans just...

351

When it means so much to them, it just naturally means so much to you because you become a Dortmund fan, you become a Dortmunder Junge.

352

Yeah, well, here's another one.

353

So you become part of the club in that sense.

354

And yeah, I really want to try and recreate that feeling this year.

355

You picked the...

356

You didn't really pick, but it was a poor time to win such a title

357

because there was obviously no fans in the stadium.

358

So just imagine what it would have felt like with 70,000 in Berlin, probably half a million on the streets in Dortmund when you come back.

359

And just tell me what that was.

360

It's a bit depressing, like you've kind of ruined the whole thing for me now.

361

No, it's still special, but I could tell you because I experienced it with fans.

362

And you just mentioned how important it is for the fans.

363

And that would be something.

364

Yeah, definitely.

365

Because you get the feedback and stuff from social media, You see the videos and you see how people crowd

366

and on the way back there was these big flares and stuff as we were coming back to Brackel.

367

You appreciate it for, oh wow, they must be buzzing.

368

But then if you were to see it in person and go back to Borzy Platts and have the celebration, it would have just meant so much more.

369

That's something that I want to create again this year.

370

And we are absolutely able to do that.

371

In February we play against Bochum, it's a next door neighbor, it's going to be floodlights, it's going to be a sold out cramped stadium.

372

How much do you already fancy these kind of cup situations, these knockout games where it's all or nothing actually?

373

Massively, I think I've always said to you off camera and whatever else that I just love playing them big games, those important games, even Hanover.

374

It got difficult, we were 1-0 but not playing so well.

375

I'm pretty sure they would have got back into the game had we played at the same level.

376

And then to come on and score

377

that goal to help us go through those moments where you

378

feel like you've really helped the team in such big moments or such important games like a knockout game feels so huge.

379

And I know the team's got more than enough to deliver against Bochum, but it won't be an easy game.

380

We've got to go there with the right attitude the right mentality

381

and uh show the right side of ourselves

382

and you know we've got a play like we know what

383

it means um to the fans in terms of the competition

384

and what we'll do for them if we could win it i think

385

that that would be the biggest compliment to them

386

and give us the best chance of going through yeah

387

and the winners are just two games shy of the finals exactly yeah so you never You never know what can happen.

388

You can start dreaming after that one, I think.

389

Okay, that's when you start dreaming.

390

Yeah, okay, alright.

391

Two games left, you'd say.

392

It's true.

393

It's true, absolutely true.

394

Let's move on from the DFB Cup, or head towards the Champions League.

395

It's another competition where still so many things are possible, and it's going against Chelsea.

396

But before we talk about that, there's another short clip which proves that you absolutely can do Champions League.

397

Is that anticipation or is that reaction?

398

I was watching it the other day.

399

You know who I ran between?

400

Manu and Erling.

401

Right, right.

402

So weird that.

403

I think it was just anticipation really.

404

I thought I know where the ball is going to go.

405

And honestly, I was surprised it got that far to me.

406

And I was surprised that he was kind of so far off his line.

407

I did feel though like if I got any sort of touch, I could like the pace on the ball, the way Marco strikes the ball because it's like it's got

408

that little bit of spin on it and

409

that creates a bit more pace

410

so all i knew i had to do was just get a touch

411

and i didn't have to direct it because the keeper was already out

412

but um yeah that was a really nice moment

413

but yeah like i said those games in the champions league

414

when you know the anthem comes on and it's late

415

and you know you feel like um they just feel like

416

big games they feel like massive games to the club

417

and to the fans and stuff and you know to deliver in that game against Chelsea would be huge.

418

Yeah, but just that game, I mean, do you have to tweet yourself?

419

I mean, you said it, go out there, hear the anthem, play those kind of games, but that's not it for you.

420

You're going to score that goal, play against the best team in Europe, probably, score that goal, go in front of the fans and have a huge celebration.

421

It's ridiculous almost, given your age as well.

422

Yeah, but it's just like what I want to do, do you know what I mean?

423

I think I've always dreamed of that being kind of my moment, so why would I let it pass me by?

424

I've dreamed of playing in those games and to then get there and think, oh, it's a bit too big for me or someone else will do it,

425

which I'm sure everyone else in that team is capable of scoring a goal like that, do you know what I mean?

426

But still, it's like you need to enjoy the moment, you need to kind of live it instead of just dreaming about it.

427

But I don't know, in the end, was it that famous...

428

Do you celebrate it?

429

It was that one.

430

Do you have that framed in your living room?

431

No, I want to get a picture of where it's something like that.

432

I really want to get something like that

433

because I've got a couple of celebrations like that from when I was at Birmingham and now England as well.

434

I think we can make something like that happen.

435

We're going to find one of those angles.

436

Do you know a good photographer that might have a shot of this?

437

I'm not sure, but we're trying to find out.

438

Just see the face he's getting out by the way.

439

But where does this moment rank so far in your career?

440

That was a nice one, but we lost the game.

441

Not too high, I'd say.

442

I always put my first Birmingham goal one.

443

Probably...

444

I have a favorite.

445

The FB Pokal two, I'd say.

446

It's really close.

447

But was it...

448

I kind of hated it and loved it at the same time.

449

I think it was against Bielefeld.

450

Yeah, the dribble.

451

Dribble.

452

That was the best goal.

453

But like in terms of...

454

From the meaning point of things?

455

Yeah, the meaning one, the best one I played for Dortmund was Sevilla away.

456

I was captain for the first time in the Champions League, scored, set up Rafa, got man of the match, my mom was there, felt like the perfect evening to be fair.

457

So yeah, I'd say that was probably above that one.

458

But you know, it was nice to go back to England and create that memory as well.

459

So now it's Chelsea.

460

What's probably or will be the key cracking Chelsea?

461

Yeah, I think it's approaching the game knowing all the weapons that they have, but also understanding that we can cause problems as well.

462

I think they're going through a bit of a rough patch at the minute and they've got a lot of injuries.

463

But you've got to be an idiot to write off a team like Chelsea with the quality they have.

464

I'm sure by the time we play them as well, they'll have players back in the squad.

465

So, yeah, it's about not always taking things as they are and just facing the battle that you actually come against.

466

So yeah, I'm really looking forward to our first game in Dortmund and then going back to England.

467

So hopefully we win the tie.

468

We're in the here and now.

469

We're in Spain.

470

It's usually sunny during the day.

471

It's about 19 degrees, good conditions.

472

So that at least should make for a good atmosphere.

473

But there also are so many returning players now, especially of course Sebastian Haller.

474

How do you perceive him so far?

475

It's brilliant really what he's done.

476

To be honest, the thing that I was saying to someone, I think it was, I was speaking to my dad, I can't believe he's come back in such good shape.

477

You know, like after what he's been through and he's come back so sharp and so like ready to go.

478

If you watched him train, you wouldn't think like, oh, he's been out for that long and that seriously.

479

Honest, and that seriously as well.

480

And, you know, it's a credit to the kind of professional he is.

481

And, you know, everyone knows how good he is as a player.

482

But I think, you know, when you see that, it's like, you respect for him just goes through the roof, you know, to face that kind of adversity and bounce back.

483

And he was almost like not worried about it.

484

The way he approached it was like, no, I'll be fine, I'll be back and I'll be ready to go.

485

And, you know, in training, he doesn't look out of place.

486

And yeah, it's really nice to have him back.

487

And hopefully he can score some goals for us.

488

Yeah, hopefully.

489

But when you're around, not just good guys like him, but also these kind of quality players that we have in the team,

490

how optimistic are you for...

491

Really optimistic.

492

Like I was saying, if we can keep everyone fit, We have such a strong squad.

493

But I think we've been really unfortunate with injuries in the first round of the season.

494

It killed the momentum at times when we were starting to pick up really important wins.

495

Like we beat Schalke in the derby, but Marco gets injured.

496

So it's like you get mixed emotions from the game and you can't really take the momentum into the next one.

497

So to have everyone back, it does feel like we've had a transfer window and we've brought in eight new players

498

as opposed to just got players back.

499

So I think that excites everyone.

500

It also creates a competition for places, which brings out the best of everyone in training.

501

And, you know, when the training intensity is better, we always play better on the weekend.

502

So everything helps.

503

How will you help?

504

What's going to be your role in the team?

505

I think it's going to be similar to the first round where, you know, I have to take on more responsibility.

506

You know, I think every year or half year that I've played at the club, my responsibility in the teams increased.

507

I have to continue to be everywhere on the pitch and try my best to contribute going forwards and backwards.

508

Try and control games, try and dominate the midfield with Sally, Mo and whoever else plays in there.

509

But I think everyone's aware of their responsibility and it's just about focusing on themselves and making sure they do it properly.

510

If we can all do that in our respective jobs, then I'm sure we'll be fine.

511

We have more than enough quality.

512

So now we look a little further ahead.

513

It's June 2023.

514

What has to happen for you to say it was a good season overall?

515

It's a tough one.

516

I think a trophy obviously makes it a good season.

517

I think that would be really nice.

518

there's still so many games.

519

So I think this idea of aiming for places in the league and saying, oh, well, we still got enough time to get into the Champions League.

520

It's like, no, let's just play games, let's just win games and see where it takes us.

521

Simple as that, really.

522

Thank you, Jude.

523

It's always a pleasure.

524

Always a pleasure.

525

Thank you so much.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
