"You can only win against the top teams with that humble attitude. We can be speaking about tactics and positions and football science but I think to win against the big teams - and it happens when other teams beat us like Newcastle - the attitude has to be really special and the players showed that. We managers always want the perfection. We are the best with the pen and the paper when we define our gameplan and define mode of play, we are all the best and everything is perfect. Then on the pitch things are a little bit different. Today we decide to play against them with four at the back, not five, and to play with four at the back the work of Scott and Matic was absolutely crucial in the control of Hazard and Willian positions and even so we are not perfect because they are phenomenal players. And then we needed Paul and Alexis to give us some balance in front of them. So the players took a little bit of time to adapt to it and I'm really happy from that. They were intelligent and understood the change of Lingard and the change of Eric Bailly when Antonio brought Giroud to play with Morata, because he was making the change Giroud for Morata. But when we scored he had time to change and to play with both in the middle and you can imagine they are two fantastic strikers, so we have also to adapt and progressively the players were understanding the changes. I'm really happy, great attitude too."
