00:00My biggest learning is there's a spirit and a fight and a resilience in this group that I really, really like.
00:07I've demanded from the first day of stepping in.
00:10We don't have many training sessions, but we spoke about reacting positively to setbacks.
00:15We've spoken about reactions to losing the ball, pressing, energy, intensity.
00:19All of that was there in the second half, which wasn't there in the first half.
00:23I don't put that just down to the changes I made.
00:27It's very difficult. We've had so many games in a short space of time.
00:32I was fearful of the lack of energy and not energy on lack of application,
00:36but I felt our decision making was really poor in the first half.
00:39When to keep the ball, when we pressed, we were just too far off it.
00:44The West Ham were by far the better team.
00:47Had a reaction at halftime.
00:48The reaction of the team in the second half tells me that we've got something really, really special here.
00:53If I can utilise the squad in the correct way.
