Silva praised the team's attacking play, noting that their concepts were effective and created scoring opportunities. However, he also acknowledged that the team struggled defensively, allowing Aston Villa to defend deep and creating difficulties for themselves.

Silva recognized that Aston Villa is a strong team with high-quality players, but he emphasized the importance of looking inward to improve the team's performance. He pointed out that the team's pressing was lacking, often arriving late to defensive duels.

Silva emphasized that when the team's pressing is not effective, the game becomes a transitional one, making it difficult for them to play well. He acknowledged that this is an area the team needs to focus on improving.

Silva's comments highlighted the team's commitment to self-reflection and improvement, even in the face of a disappointing loss.
