Despite having an upcoming final in the Champions League against Manchester City the German still want to focus on the game at hand.

“In the clear sense that we want to have them in the final and don’t want to have any injuries, like we had with N’Golo against Leicester and almost with Mason and Chilly,” he explained. “You always have the risk in any match to have injuries.

“But also no, because if we had been qualified, you can lose the energy, you can overthink it about who you can leave out, who needs a rest and suddenly you don’t know if they catch the momentum again.

The German further stated that they need to keep the momentum going and they will have to focus on the Villa game.

“You’re always torn and I prefer to keep on going. I think even it’s an advantage to keep on going to the very end and to have the Champions League final after that. To fight for it constantly and not have to deal with the situation where you don’t fight, you don’t want to be injured but you don’t want to lose your rhythm.

“It’s better now to just think about Aston Villa and hope for a bit of luck and take all the respect we can for them. There will be no players rested. It was all in against Leicester and it will be all in against Aston Villa.”
