00:00The way the game penned out I think was exactly how I expected it to be, if I'm honest.

00:06A very even game against a very good Villa team, set up very well by Unai,

00:12where I think we performed quite well.

00:17Maybe not through the roof, I'm thinking what is through the roof is that totally dominating Villa,

00:22which has been a very good team in the last couple of seasons, clearly a very good team with good players.

00:27But I think we dominated in good spells, I think we came out with very good intensity, very aggressive.

00:34I think we were good in high pressure.

00:36And defensively, I think we were excellent.

00:38We gave away very, very small.

00:41I think there's a couple of things you can look into when you look defensively.

00:46We gave away, what, eight shots? I think not even a cross, more or less.

00:51Very, very low XG, and Recairo didn't have a save.

00:56So you've done that, then you've done well.

00:59We gave two goals away.

01:01That is, in a position outside the box, with a lot of players behind the ball,

01:09where you said to me before the game, they will shoot from there, Rodgers and Buendia, with that situation.

01:14Ah yeah, of course, no problem. It's not dangerous.

01:17But a fantastic quality shot from Rodgers.

01:20So in those nothing moments, or very little moments, they had more quality in the day.

01:27.
