00:00It's brave but refreshing, isn't it, when a team does that, comes out and, as you say, wants to go
00:04out to the top.
00:05Yeah, it's really nice. It's always really nice.
00:09If I... You'll probably say, yeah, you're always something to complain.
00:13But I would have preferred to face a team now that maybe did this a little bit more.
00:20But if we would have had a week of rest, then please bring us a fight like that.
00:27But, yeah, we're the only team, by the way, and that's not complaining, that's just being realistic,
00:34that played on Tuesday or Wednesday in Europe and all the teams are playing on Sunday.
00:40And we are the lucky ones that have to play 12.30 away game against one of the most intense
00:45teams in the league.
00:48But we will be ready for it.
00:50Do you like 12.30?
00:51I don't mind at all playing 12.30 because we train, not today, a little bit later,
00:57because we want to give them as much rest as we can, because sleeping is very important in recovery.
01:03But usually we train around 12.30, 1 o'clock.
01:07So if we could not perform at that time, then it's really stupid to train at that time.
01:12So I don't mind at all playing 12.30.
01:17I do mind playing Sunday evening, I think it was 20 past six when we finished the game against Tottenham,
01:23then Wednesday evening, a tough game that could have gone also to extra time.
01:28And then putting that team on a 12.30 kick-off for the sixth, seventh time this season,
01:34that is not what you would prefer as a manager, let alone if you want to get the best performance
01:42or the best outcome or the nicest game against two teams that are usually,
01:46if they play against each other, a joy to watch.
