 Hello and welcome to Marbella in Spain. I'm joined by Marcos Tanesi, we're going to talk all things pre-season, we're going to talk last season, we're going to talk summer break and we're going to talk everything that there is to look forward to with the new campaign. Now Marcos, thank you so much for joining me. As I say, we're here in Marbella. How have you found the last week or so? I think the start of the pre-season has been tough, but it's good that we are doing a pre-season to build up with the new trainer, a new idea of playing. I think it's something nice that we already have a friendly match to see where we are and to see what we have to improve for the upcoming games. And there's been a lot of double sessions, as you can see, it's very hot here out in Marbella. How tough has that been in that heat? Yes, it is tough to train with this heat, but actually I'm a bit used to this because of South America and Argentina. And I kinda like it, because sometimes in England you miss this, but it starts with the way of training and everything has been a bit hard. And the new coach as well, how impressed have you been by Antonio Reola? Yes, I've been impressed. I think the idea of playing that he has is something good for us, for everyone. I think we are going or trying to be, I think we will be competitive protagonists with the ball and trying to play as high as possible. So something that we have to improve and try to do it. And we've had the first game of pre-season already against the Burnie and it was a tough one again in the heat, but a 4-0 win. How good is it just to get minutes in the tank at this stage? Yes, of course it's nice to start to have minutes to see where we are, to see which thing we have to improve as a team and start to build up from that. And obviously we've got another game coming on Sunday. These games are coming quite quick succession, but Antonio said the other day that there's no better practice than match practice. So how crucial is that for you and the boys to right the wrongs potentially of the things that didn't quite go to plan on Thursday? No, of course, I think the best thing is play games, to get the rhythm, to get the minutes on the legs and see the things that we have to improve for the upcoming games, which we have to start at the Premier League as soon as possible. And another new face in the camp is Justin Clivitt now, obviously he's Dutch, previously before you came here you were playing in Holland and it looks like you've struck up quite a nice friendship. Yeah, at the beginning I'm joking with him, with Dutch, because I don't speak it at all, but I know some words, I understand Dutch, so it's nice also to have someone from Netherlands. And in terms of the summer break, obviously it was a much shorter break this year because of the World Cup and the season finishing later, but what did you get up to tell us a little bit about your summer and how you relaxed and took the tunnel? Yeah, I went to Argentina to see my family, grandparents and friends and then I spent most of the day with them and then I went to Miami with also part of my family. And actually to relax, to be a little bit on the beach and start to train a little bit, move the body and yeah, just was that. I went to a place where I can just stay there, start to train, relax and get back to England. Did it go very quickly? Yeah, actually it was really fast. Now for you, you've come back and you've got a new haircut. Yeah. Tell us about it. Was it in the plans? Was it, you know, a spontaneous decision? No. Last year my brother told me, you have to do something on your hair, do some color. I was like, I don't want to do color on my hair, I don't know, I don't feel comfortable with it. And then it was the day in Argentina I said, should I do it or not? And it was like, okay, I will do it. Otherwise I will just take it off afterwards if I don't like it. But it's something just for the summer, maybe, I don't know if I will keep it, you know? My thought is just when the Premier League starts just to take it off and go back to my normal haircut. Well, the Premier League, it's only sort of five weeks away now, the fixtures are out. How much are you looking forward to being back and playing in England's top division? Yeah, we are all looking forward to the start of the season. I think we are all excited of the new idea also, the way we are going to play and we will see where we are this season. How much did you learn from last year? Obviously it was your first season playing in what so many people call the best league in the world. How much did you take from that that you can take into this season and build? I think it's one of the best leagues in the world. I think we already learned a lot of things from last season. I think some things won't happen again. And yeah, try to get the result that we need, achieve the goals that we all want and see where we finish this season. Are there any fixtures that particularly caught your eye or any teams that you look out for as the ones that... Okay, this one's here, this one's here, this one's here, because every player maybe has a team they support as a child or a team where they've got friends perhaps. Is there any of those games for you where you look out for them and think, okay, I need to play well in this one or I need to remember this one because I'm going to see this person or that person, you know? No, I'm not supporting any team in England, actually. Of course, us as a team, as a club, but I don't know. It's something that I feel that every game in Premier League is a tough one. It's a nice one to play, so I'm looking forward to play all of them. It's a tough start as well, isn't it? Yeah, it is, it is. I didn't take much look at the fixture, actually, but I spoke with Neto and some of the guys and they told me it is a tough one. And just tell us, what's the mood in the camp kind of been like, not just over the last week where we've been here, but since the boys have been back? No, of course, it's good to have a good atmosphere for work to see and to train. I think that's the best thing we can have as a good atmosphere in the group, with the staff, everything going well. I start to build up from there and see where we can do. Well, Marcus, thank you so much for joining us out here in Spain. We really appreciate your time and I'm sure the fans at home will really enjoy watching. Thank you very much for all of us at AFC BTV. That's a wrap.
