“Yes, We made changes, we gave opportunities to players that deserved it and I think they played very well.

“We have a good squad and I want to give everyone an opportunity. There were players who were patient and trained well.

“They showed they are prepared whenever we need them and today they made it difficult for my selection.

“Sometimes when they are not picked to play, it’s not something that they can do anything about, it’s because we have to pick players and sometimes we go for others. There’s nothing from their end that they can do.

“It is about the quality, and maybe the tactical plan that we have for a match. I am pleased with the performance.

“After losing against Leicester it was painful.

“It was difficult to digest in days but we have to react immediately with a win, with this attitude, and now we go travel to Old Trafford and to win again.”
