00:00Southampton, then.

00:02You're welcome.

00:05In terms of their start to the season, obviously, point-wise it's not gone great for them,

00:10they're struggling at the wrong end of the table,

00:12but Russell Martin has been absolutely steadfast in his belief

00:16that he will play the same way, he will stick to his principles.

00:19How much do you admire managers doing that,

00:21even when the results are not going the way that they should be?

00:25We will have success.

00:27When that happens, you always have success sooner or later.

00:30You start to change a lot of your ideas or your thoughts.

00:33Normally, when you change your ideas or your thoughts,

00:36I'm not saying to adjust something, it's not about paying four in the back,

00:39five in the back, that is not the point.

00:42If you start to change your thoughts due to the results,

00:45the players will notice, they will know you are not a big believer.

00:49When that happens, sooner or later the results,

00:52as bad as it is coming, they are coming.

00:56If we always have bad results in the walls, then we know what will happen,

01:01how we struggle to win.

01:04They always have good momentum, so the games against Renfrew,

01:07against United, the first half an hour, against Leicester,

01:11it starts really, really good.

01:13They have good moments, they have the courage to play.

01:17The team I use as a keeper, like I use with Ramsdell right now,

01:20I can use it with all the process, it's always difficult.

01:24After the Champions League, I prefer to play against the teams in bed at the table,

01:29because you are focused and the big mistake we can do is just watching the table.

01:35But this is the way it is.
