00:00We'll take any other questions after our log goals.
00:02Adi, can you explain what Daniel was so frustrated that you saw him run on at the end?
00:08Yes, good evening everybody.
00:10I had a short chat with him, so I think we had six minutes at a time.
00:19Obviously, if you're chasing the game, you're one down.
00:22You see the opposition teams, also what probably all the teams are doing, wasting time.
00:27I think they got booked also for wasting time.
00:30So you feel like, come on, you can add a few seconds more.
00:34And I think we had also the feedback of the Fossey.
00:37Come on, it's going to be added.
00:39And then I think just about six minutes after that, we get the ball for one delivery and then you're
00:44emotional.
00:45I think this is what the sport is also all about.
00:49And you are not allowed to get this last ball in, I think.
00:52And then I think he's gone on the pitch and asked for what.
00:56So probably the explanation is going to be he was over-emotional how he's gone on the pitch, I would
01:02suggest.
01:03But, yeah, disappointing that he got really disappointed in the set off and would have wished for a more sensible
01:09action of the referee as well.
01:11Maybe you can, come on, give a yellow card.
01:13It's an emotional game.
01:14And that's it.
01:15What about the performance?
01:16You must be fairly proud that you pushed City all the way today.
01:19Yeah, I think you've all seen it.
01:21So I think, yes.
01:23So really proud of the boys.
01:24Unbelievable shift once again.
01:26Unbelievable performance.
01:27Created our chances, our moments.
01:29Disappointed we didn't score.
01:30I think you're playing one of the best teams in the world.
01:33You need to also convert one of these chances.
01:35And then obviously I think we're also restricted into very few chances considering it's Man City.
01:42Yeah, this one moment in the worst possible moment just before halftime.
01:45And they played it also really well.
01:47So we haven't been switched on in this one moment.
01:50Also well played, good channel run, good delivery, low ball, good finish.
01:54So also you can't always avoid it.
01:57But yeah, the worst possible moment to go down.
02:00The timing of it probably really did hurt more than the timing of City's goal.
02:04What was set at halftime with the game in flux as it was?
02:08No, I think we did a really good game.
02:10So try to keep going to push it.
02:12There are moments you need also to suffer to sit it out.
02:14And that we get all moments in the game.
02:16And I think we pushed them also all the way throughout the game.
02:20You could see it also the opposition bench that we've been quite nervous as well.
02:23So you want to keep it tight.
02:25You want to stay in the game.
02:26I think that's what we did.
02:27Change the formation back to a 4-4-2.
02:29Then we come back to a 3-5-2 again.
02:31Tried everything with the subs.
02:34I think they also had pushed everything, had an impact as well.
02:37Tried to create.
02:38Sadly didn't convert, didn't score the situation we had.
02:41And also Man City, fair play to them.
02:44How they defend, how they put as a team also a shift in.
02:46It's not just individuals.
02:47You see what a world-class team that is.
02:50And also fair play to them.
02:51Any injury concerns?
02:52Was Joe OK?
02:53I know his hamstring seems to bother him a little bit.
02:55Yeah, I think it's the hemi, so we need to assess him.
02:57So hopefully it's nothing too serious and that he can go on Tuesday again.
03:00But we will see how they are tomorrow and assess the situation.
03:05And hopefully everybody will be available.
03:07Everyone else OK?
03:08So far I haven't seen anything different, but...
03:12How's it?
03:12Eddie, obviously you're very emotional at the end a little bit, Daniel.
03:15But in terms of how he was in the dressing room, how was his mood and what was the message
03:18to the lads?
03:20I mean, as I've said, you play one of the best teams.
03:23We are disappointed in the dressing room that we didn't get something out of this game.
03:28Because we put a really, really great shift once again in, like this team always does.
03:34That he's completely proud of the performance.
03:36And yeah, that we shake ourselves, recover and make sure we put another shift in on Tuesday against Sunderland
03:42and get our points against them.
03:44When such a significant player, such as Harvard, is ruled out so late just before a game,
03:48does it change your approach or any of the tactics?
03:51No, not really.
03:52I don't think they changed their game too much in this term.
03:56So the plan was still the same.
03:58No, it didn't really affect it too much, the plan.
04:02Stuart?
04:03We've seen the goalkeeping situation change over the season.
04:06What will that performance have done for Karl?
04:10What performance?
04:10What will that performance have done for Karl Darlow's confidence?
04:14Yeah, I think all his performances so far really like gives a great security, makes saves,
04:22is always reliable.
04:26I think he's experienced enough.
04:28I don't think he needs a good game to get confidence.
04:30I think he has all the confidence and yeah, once again, another great performance of Karl.
04:36It was a really physically demanding game.
04:38How difficult is it going to be to recover everybody for a Tuesday game?
04:45Yeah, it is always difficult, but the other teams playing as well.
04:48And I think we are the two teams with one of the probably the most physical outfit in this
04:54league.
04:55So of course, and again, it's another different, another shift against Man City.
04:59And I think that's what we did.
05:00But so far we've managed it really well.
05:03So hopefully everybody will be alright tomorrow.
05:05And recover for Tuesday and then we assess the situation and go again Tuesday.
05:10Anybody else?
05:12Yep.
05:14When there was a stop that you played for the players to create that fast,
05:17you heard booing around the ground and tears.
05:19What did you make of that?
05:20To be fair, I'm probably the guy who doesn't hear a lot because I'm really focused on the
05:26game.
05:27But I've heard about it.
05:28So yeah, obviously some of the supporters did it.
05:31So we tried to learn out of its disappointing thing and yeah, do it better next time.
05:36Nobody else?
05:38Thank you very much.
05:40You're welcome.
