- Another early mistake took the wind out of them, Rosenior said, and the second goal came from 25 yards. He credited PSG's possession play and said they deserved to go through.
- Asked whether taking Joao Pedro off admitted the players were tired, Rosenior said it was the reality of over 100 games in 18 months. Without managing minutes, the injury risk rises sharply.
“This is football and moments can change the flow of things.”
- Told Enzo Fernandez had said he does not know if he will stay next season, Rosenior said he had not seen it. He would not speak on speculation after a game.
- Asked about chanting and booing of his substitutions, he said the fans want success instantly, rightly for a club this size. He understood that before he came in.
- His side were in the game for six minutes, Rosenior said, then an individual error gave PSG a goal and a cushion. Over two legs they were neither clinical nor tight at the back.
- Asked about playing Mamadou there, Rosenior said he has played that position for him and had been outstanding against PSG. The early mistake gave PSG confidence.
- The player was really worried, Rosenior said, and will be scanned and assessed tomorrow. They are hoping and praying it is not as bad as first feared.
