Manchester United

Their results so far don't say much about them. They can rely on excellent transitional play with Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford and now Rasmus Højlund. Their start to the season was unsatisfactory, but they could have taken the game early against Brighton. They were never left out of the game. Manchester United are always dangerous, they have so much individual quality.

About the Field Ban

I can travel with the team to the stadium, but then we have to leave until after the final whistle. I can watch the game on a box. It's a shame, but that's the way it is. We are a strong coaching team, my colleagues will manage. I will try to give energy from the stands.

Champions League

One of the hardest competitions you can play, but also the most beautiful. This is something else. It's a privilege to be involved in this on a regular basis. The pressure is especially enjoyable in the Champions League. It's always a challenge, including the group stage. Tomorrow we definitely start with the best match, but the group will continue to be difficult and we need to concentrate until the end. We want to do our best in every match to stay in it for as long as possible.

Bayern Münich

I think they have very talented, very remarkable players. You can't be unfocused for a second. They have a lot of individual quality. But sometimes they give you space. We know Bayern, they are very strong at home, especially in the Champions League. But I'm looking forward to it because I love a challenge.

Missing Players

One thing is true, I can say that I have never started with the best starting XI since the beginning of last season. There was always a problem. But you have to work and we have always had results except the period we are in now. It's also something I enjoy because you have to work it out. You have to know what to do and focus on the process.

Reasons for Missing Players

I don't know if we can go to the doctors or the authorities because they are dealing with [injury] issues. First of all, injuries can always happen in top-level football. Of course we analyze why things happen, but we also have to deal with the facts. We must always make the best decision regarding the players available. This way we can take the next step. Integrating Rasmus Hojlund and Reguilon, thus adding two new players to our style of play and getting the result. That's what we're here for.
