00:00Daniel, did you feel like the second half was always going to be difficult and did it play out as you?
00:05Yes, to be honest, I fully...
00:10I didn't expect this because overall, really good.
00:15Good result for us here on the road to travel away with one point after a press...
00:20...with Resil for Everton in the last game against the top side.
00:25The first half was outstanding, one of the best away performances we've shown, I think very dominant.
00:30Now, any chances was a bit unlucky that we couldn't capitalize even more because...
00:35...we had so many good situations where we could play the final pass or the second last pass even a bit...
00:40...tidier, but nevertheless, we had still great chances.
00:44Ilya Gruf, Dominic...
00:45...probably with the best chance, should have scored in this situation.
00:48We had the chance to bury there because...
00:50...Everton is a top side and well-managed side and they have so much quality also on the bench and...
00:55...to throw into it, it was clear that at some point in the second half they would show up and...
01:00...yes, they had then more possession in the second half and were then dominant in possession, I still got the feeling...
01:05...that we were controlling the game also against the ball with less possession, yes, but...
01:10...we didn't allow too many chances, I think Khaled before the goal, one good save...
01:15...after a good finish and after the goal there was one header against the crossbar...
01:19...and...
01:20...yes, but apart from this it was more or less just a goal anyhow and...
01:23...yeah, the situation we could have defended a bit sharp.
01:25...so first the cross in and then the situation in the centre so...
01:30...I also liked the reaction of Malet that in the last 10 minutes after this we then got the momentum a bit more...
01:35...on our side and had many corner kicks and set-piece situations for us and...
01:40...good counter-attacks as well...
01:42...I haven't double-checked...
01:44...right now this is...
01:45...statistics but the gut feeling is although...
01:47...even more possession in the second half the feeling was...
01:50...still that we should be there with more expected goals, with more shots, with more big chances...
01:55...miss than them so we were pretty close also like to win this game...
01:59...but it was not too...
02:00...and we also have to respect their quality and it's a tough place...
02:03...and for that we take the point and move on.
02:05And Gabriel Goodmanson, what's the exact situation with him?
02:10Yes, sadly he's got a little strain in his adductor...
02:15...so he was always going to miss this game...
02:20...and we hope to have him back as quick as possible...
02:22...so it depends on the further assessment...
02:25...initial assessment was not great...
02:27...it has had perhaps three to four weeks...
02:30...but right now it looks a bit brighter...
02:32...so we have a second opinion...
02:33...I hope to have him back...
02:35...as quick as possible so that he maximum misses one or perhaps two games...
02:39...but...
02:40...but not more because obviously he's an important player for us...
02:42...although I have to say James Justin was today on this...
02:45...position also excellent.
02:46Hi Daniel, based on how the second half...
02:50...you were told it...
02:51...why were you comfortable waiting until the 85th minute I think...
02:54...for the big sort of...
02:55...tranche of three substitutes there?
02:58It was a difficult situation...
03:00...because obviously...
03:01...Evan has changed their formation to three at the back...
03:05...and...
03:06...we didn't have a problem in terms of defending the processes...
03:09...it was more this...
03:10...the other way around...
03:11...um...
03:12...so...
03:13...we still controlled it...
03:14...and of course...
03:15...to their quality they need to show up...
03:17...of course they would have here and there a situation...
03:19...um...
03:20...but...
03:20...we lost a bit the...
03:21...the control in procession...
03:22...a bit the...
03:23...our process in procession...
03:24...for that I was even thinking...
03:25...about...
03:26...changing to...
03:27...three midfield players...
03:28...more or less to take a centre back out...
03:30...and to change to a 4-3-3...
03:32...even a bit earlier...
03:33...to get more dominance back...
03:35...um...
03:36...on the other side...
03:37...there is more or less than the thought...
03:38...okay...
03:39...you are missing already...
03:40...two key players...
03:41...in the defence...
03:42...with Jacob Joll...
03:43...and Gabi Gudmundsen...
03:44...you have finished the last game...
03:45...against Fulham...
03:46...with a clean sheet...
03:47...you are here after 60-70 minutes...
03:48...still there...
03:49...with a clean sheet...
03:50...if you don't allow chances...
03:51...you defend really, really well...
03:52...in the...
03:53...in the last...
03:55...row...
03:56...so...
03:57...if you...
03:58...right now...
03:59...take a centre back out...
04:00...and risk...
04:01...to defend just with...
04:02...form information...
04:03...although you haven't conceded...
04:04...in the last...
04:05...whatever...
04:06...nearly two games...
04:07...um...
04:08...it would be also madness...
04:09...if you won an elite...
04:10...in this game...
04:11...so...
04:12...um...
04:13...yes...
04:14...afterwards...
04:15...you could say...
04:15...perhaps...
04:16...it would have been better...
04:17...to do it even before...
04:18...but you never know...
04:19...so...
04:20...perhaps...
04:20...it would be...
04:21...would be even worse...
04:22...so it's...
04:23...it's always...
04:24...always difficult to say...
04:25...um...
04:26...but it was...
04:25...something I was...
04:26...thinking about...
04:27...but it was difficult...
04:28...because overall I have to say...
04:29...what the Lads have done...
04:30in terms of defending all the opponent's attacks, not just in this game, but also in the last game, in our 5-5.
04:35at the back was spot on, and for that we just changed more or less.
04:40A few results over the week.
04:45And with the teams that were around you in the league, I know you focus on yourselves all the time, but obviously you were made to wait.
04:50to give your response to that tonight with the Monday night game.
04:52So how much did you focus or talk about?
04:55What was happening elsewhere in the division in your pre-match preparation for this?
04:58Not at all.
04:59We really, honestly...
05:00It's not a phrase, we just focus on this game because we can't influence what other teams are doing and...
05:05Yeah, of course, it's more like a long road of 38 game days, you don't have always game...
05:10days who go into your favor because otherwise, if you would each of the game, they extend the gap, extend...
05:15the gap, extend the gap, and then the gap is at some point so big that we would win the title anyhow.
05:20It won't work in this way, so sometimes you also have to accept that also the teams around you win some...
05:25Sometimes the game and the home game anyhow, so for us it was just important to show another...
05:30good performance to win as many points as possible.
05:33Again, slightly disappointed.
05:35It was that we didn't win all three points because it was a possible...
05:40good performance to win today, but nevertheless I have to give compliments to the leds and have to say that it's...
05:45a good result on the road and we move one point closer, so for that...
05:48really, not one...
05:50100% focus on other results or other game, just focus on this game.
05:55and with this game, we should be really content.
05:59Hi Daniel.
06:00Just...
06:00coming off of what you've just said there, you've not won away in the Premier League since September.
06:05How much of an issue is that for you?
06:07Or is it, you know, as long as you draw, it's over?
06:10Okay.
06:11Yes, I would have preferred, whatever, this time four or five...
06:15wins on the road, but then we would play for Europe, so it's more or less like, yes, you will...
06:20always find for a promoted side who is in the battle to stay in this league, something what you can...
06:25improve, sometimes it's home form, a waveform, I wouldn't say it's a problem if you have a look in the...
06:30our last away games and, you know, Liverpool clean sheet before point in Sunday...
06:35Outstanding performance at Newcastle, got lots of praise and, you know, yes, sometimes...
06:40it's also like the quality of the opponent who then wins a game in the...
06:45last moment of the game, like Newcastle or also today, with one good situation perhaps to...
06:50secure point for the home team, this is what you have to accept, so it's not a concern for...
06:55me, for me it's important, more or less encouraging that we had another really, really good away performance and...
07:00if we keep going like this, if we deliver performances like this, then the results...
07:05yeah, will come is also like underrated because they are there and you know we are...
07:09whatever in last...
07:10ten games, we have just one loss anyhow, so we are we are on a good good road and for that it's...
07:15nothing I'm too concerned about.
07:17Do you expect any transfer activity this week, any...
07:20coming?
07:21No, for me not the time to speak about this straight...
07:25after the game, also for me it's important that this group has again proven...
07:28that we have enough in order to win this.
07:30enough points to say in this league and for that...
07:32this is the major thing for me, the most encouraging...
07:35thing...
07:36I also hope that we have some good news from...
07:38from our injuries that Jakob Joll and Gabi...
07:40the good ones will be back soon and then we have...
07:42also enough in order to stay in this league.
07:44Sure.
07:45Daniel, a typical performance from Brendan Aronson today, particularly now you've got that...
07:50extra option in his position, is it almost his job not to last the game, to empty the tank?
07:55early, early in the game?
07:57He can't empty the tank because he...
07:59He can't empty the tank because he...
08:00he can...
08:01cover 15k and the next day he covers...
08:03again 15k so...
08:04when...
08:05Erwin has so much energy so...
08:07he gives...
08:08really from the first second...
08:10I don't always ever think so...
08:11I haven't...
08:12seen one game where he was saving himself that he can last...
08:15for 90 minutes...
08:16anyhow...
08:17he always gives everything and...
08:18when I then got the feeling...
08:19okay...
08:20I take him off...
08:21out of...
08:22out of whatever reason...
08:23I will do this but it will never be...
08:25that he is running out of...
08:26out of fuel because...
08:28this...
08:29fuel of this...
08:30that is endless.
08:31And...
08:32do you feel like the team has grown in confidence in the...
08:34in the difficult...
08:35phases of games on...
08:36on the back of this form that you're in?
08:38Yes...
08:39each of a good result...
08:40and each of a good...
08:41performance is encouraging...
08:42and we are still a newly promoted site...
08:44and for that...
08:45also to come to places like...
08:47Sunderland...
08:48anyhow...
08:49when they were in hot form...
08:50no one...
08:50one has won there...
08:51and then to show...
08:52a good performance...
08:53to drive away with one point...
08:54to go to Liverpool...
08:55to return back with a clean sheet...
08:56to go to Everton...
08:57and everyone is...
08:58slightly even...
08:59slightly disappointed...
09:00that wasn't all three...
09:01to go to Newcastle...
09:02and get lots of praise...
09:03for the performance...
09:04this is always good for the...
09:05confidence...
09:06and...
09:07but...
09:08on the other hand...
09:09there's also...
09:10no reason right now...
09:11to lose...
09:10the ground...
09:11under our feet...
09:12so we have to invest...
09:13always 100%...
09:14we have to find a good balance...
09:15between...
09:16being rock solid...
09:17and well structured...
09:18and on the other hand...
09:19also brave...
09:20and confident...
09:20we need to show this...
09:21in each of the games...
09:22because we won't win...
09:23any points...
09:24on this level...
09:25due to...
09:25our individual quality...
09:26we have to win it...
09:27with the team...
09:28and this is very encouraging...
09:29yep...
09:30yeah...
09:30and I just wanted to ask you...
09:31about the stadium...
09:32I mean there's been talk...
09:33about Elland Road...
09:34being developed...
09:35and expanded...
09:36very similar to...
09:37Goodison Park...
09:38what was it like though...
09:39coming to Everton...
09:40at the new stadium...
09:40for the first time...
09:41yes...
09:42I think overall...
09:43the stadium...
09:44is very impressive...
09:45anyhow...
09:46and also in the second half...
09:47you could feel...
09:48when they were...
09:49had also parts...
09:50when they...
09:50were on top of the game...
09:51or equalized...
09:52anyhow...
09:53then...
09:54it was also great...
09:55great atmosphere...
09:55in general...
09:56I don't want to be involved...
09:57in discussions...
09:58about the stadium...
09:59what...
10:00other clubs are doing...
10:01because...
10:02I'm too respectful...
10:03for this...
10:04in order to give...
10:05then my opinion...
10:05I'm too far away...
10:06we also...
10:07wouldn't expect...
10:08that anyone comments...
10:09the ongoing...
10:10what we are doing...
10:11at...
10:12at Leeds United...
10:13for us...
10:14the task will...
10:15will be to...
10:16to keep more or less...
10:17like the...
10:18the tradition...
10:19the history...
10:20of the stadium...
10:20I want to keep...
10:21also the...
10:22very second to none...
10:23and...
10:24special...
10:25atmosphere...
10:25what Alan wrote...
10:26and also to make sure...
10:27that on the other hand...
10:28it's still a...
10:29state-of-the-art...
10:30and...
10:31very modern...
10:30stadium...
10:31I think...
10:32this balance...
10:33is important...
10:34to...
10:35value the history...
10:36and not to change...
10:35anything...
10:36in terms of...
10:37the noise...
10:38and the mood...
10:39and...
10:40everything...
10:40but on the other hand...
10:41also like...
10:42of course...
10:43to make sure...
10:44that it's really...
10:45not dated...
10:45and...
10:46also ready...
10:47for the...
10:48for the future...
10:49this is more or less...
10:50the task...
10:51for our key people...
10:50who are responsible...
10:51for this...
10:52but...
10:53I'm not the builder...
10:54of the stadium...
10:55this is for more important...
10:56people...
10:55in this topic...
