00:00You told me a month ago when we had the very first press conference with you that one certainty was that you were going to lose games.
00:07You haven't lost any games yet. You've won every single game you've played.
00:10So does that show that your coaching skills are better than even you thought?
00:16Or that maybe the squad was better than you thought when you joined?
00:19I think both the squad is fantastic and I'm fantastic. So I think that's very simple.
00:23No. We have a strong plan to try to win tomorrow.
00:30Again against Bournemouth. We've got a big belief that we are capable of doing it.
00:36We're facing a very good team and Iola have done a top job in his coaching staff.
00:40They just lost four of their back five, including the keeper, for this season and just continue producing good performances.
00:48I watched their game live against Liverpool. I watched it one more time over the last two days.
00:54They were very good. They could easily have got something out of that game against the champions.
01:01They play a very, how can you say, not only direct, but they play very, you know, through the lines and behind you.
01:13So it's very difficult to defend and difficult to press them because they go over the top or behind us or against every team.
01:22So they're a really, really difficult team to play against. They had a fantastic season last year.
01:26So we need to show them huge respect. And we need to show huge respect in the defensive side of the game.
01:31Be very good in that aspect, because I'm convinced we will create something.
01:37But if we don't run and don't defend and don't show the respect, we'll have massive problems tomorrow against Bournemouth.
01:42So if we do that, come out with that energy and the positive feeling we have, then I'm very confident that we can win the game.
01:50But I'm very aware that we're going to a difficult, difficult, difficult task.
