00:00Here we go.
00:07Ready to kick off?
00:08It's on the hands of Football London.
00:10Quick thoughts on the performance of the game?
00:12Well, obviously very happy.
00:14A really tough place to come.
00:15They lost once in 18 months against Liverpool in the last kick of the game by a penalty.
00:20So that's a bit of the difficulty of it.
00:22I think we have started the game exceptionally well in the first half.
00:25It's one of the best that we've played.
00:27Scored two goals, generated another two or three big chances and considered nothing.
00:32And that was the platform.
00:34Because in the second half we dropped the standard, especially with the ball
00:37and with our intentions to take more race, to play more forwards.
00:40But again, defensively we were exceptional.
00:43Till the point that the free kicker were a bit lucky to hit the bar and keep the clean sheet.
00:48He didn't play all the picks in the half-time.
00:51Yeah, before that I think he was one of the best games that he's played.
00:54I think overall his performance was exceptional.
00:56A part of the goal.
00:57And we had to take him off because he was feeling a little niggle.
01:01So we'll have to wait and see.
01:03And Zubi as well.
01:05He asked to be subbed.
01:06So we'll have to wait and see.
01:08Yes, sir?
01:09How satisfying is it to have created so many open play chances?
01:12Because obviously the last two games in the league, you won 1-0 by set pieces.
01:16Here you obviously open score in set pieces.
01:18But it created so many chances of open play.
01:20How satisfying is that?
01:21Yeah, in a mid-week we did exactly the same.
01:23So at the end against teams that went to defend in that low block, it is more difficult.
01:29And Burnley created them because they are very, very well organised.
01:32And the big teams, they have a struggle big time to generate chances and opportunities
01:36against them.
01:37We certainly done that, especially in the first half.
01:39So yeah, happy with that.
01:41But still a lot of things to improve.
01:43You just mentioned Liverpool and the stats of Burnley at Turf Moor.
01:46And obviously you saw Liverpool snaps you right at the end.
01:49From that and just from their records, anything from Liverpool games to the record in general
01:54that you thought, wow, this is the one we're facing here at Turf Moor?
01:58Yeah, we know.
01:59We have been discussing this season.
02:01The games that we have a struggle to draw points, especially last season.
02:05And we knew the challenge today.
02:07And the level that we're going to have to show to beat them.
02:10Because they have this spirit and this belief to get results here at home.
02:14And you could feel that.
02:15So what we've done, be great to the boys.
02:18Sam, can you go?
02:19You mentioned, what did you like about it so much?
02:23Everything.
02:24His high press, his position and his touches.
02:26His thread in behind, the way he linked play, the way he gets us from this situation
02:31to transition moments.
02:32A lot.
02:33I think he was in a really good moment's shame that he felt something.
02:38I'm just going to do the mini.
02:39Was it muscular?
02:40Muscular, yes.
02:41Yeah.
02:42I don't know.
02:43Not muscular, yeah.
02:44OK.
02:45Anyone else?
02:46I think we're done.
02:47On the defensive record.
02:48I think that's one shot of target score.
02:50I think that's why he's not having to do much.
02:55What do you think about it?
02:57Well, I think, again, there's an action at the end after a corner from Declan
03:02that Ethan doesn't win the duel there and you see 10 players sprinting 80 metres.
03:08I mean, we play without desire, without focus, without discipline.
03:12We win a lot of games.
03:14Thank you very much.
03:16Thank you very much.
