00:00Andy, you mentioned Freddie Woodman, obviously he came on in the derby and settled into the game.
00:05If you do have to go with him, if Alisson isn't available,
00:09how much faith have you got in his abilities and what do you see as his best qualities?
00:13I think for a reason we've signed an experienced third goalkeeper.
00:17Usually you don't need him that much, but there could be situations
00:23where if one is injured and the other one gets a suspension,
00:27that usually makes more sense than expecting two goalkeepers to be injured.
00:32Then it's needed to have a third goalkeeper with experience,
00:34and that's why we were happy that we could pick him up on a free transfer this summer.
00:39Apart from him being a good goalkeeper, which he's shown,
00:42I think when he was young he won the Euros with the under-17s
00:45and I think with the under-20s he won the World Cup,
00:49and then he made himself a career at Newcastle at Preston-Northand
00:52and has an experience to play, even at Premier League but definitely at Championship level.
01:01Apart from that, he's a very good man and he's very light in the dressing room,
01:06and I think that's also a role that's important for the third goalkeeper,
01:10if he's not playing.
01:11If he's playing, it's more important that he has a good performance than his teammates like him.
01:17And that's why I think he's ready for it, but it will always be helpful
01:22if the fans are there to support him tomorrow.
01:25Let's go.
01:25Let's go.
