00:01Nobody's making it easy. It's going to be a big fight, I think, till the end, till the end, till
00:05the end.
00:06But the good thing is that we don't give up. We're still on it.
00:14Special here at London Stadium, I think it's huge. The home factor in the Premier League, we all know how
00:20important it is.
00:21And we've been really good. And the fans are being fantastic for us. The noise, the energy that they give,
00:27the extra runs for the boys.
00:29It's going to be huge. We have still two games to go here at home. And home is home.
00:44And if you look back, even the FA Cup, you remember this moment that we didn't end up well.
00:50But the boys, the belief, the energy from the fans is being fantastic.
00:55And it's starting to feel good. I think the boys appreciate to play at home.
00:59And you can see today, even when you can see there was a big blow and the next move was
01:05to play forward and try to get a goal.
01:09And this is belief. This is character. And it makes us proud.
01:11That is the point, really. It was a huge blow for a time there because everybody's got there one year
01:18on Wolverhampton Wanderers as well for a time.
01:21It was all hanging in the balance. How are you and how are the team handling the nerves of those
01:25situations?
01:26Well, we were not aware of what's happening in the other stadium. We just took the blow and felt, wow.
01:31Now what?
01:32But I saw the first run. That's what I say. The first movement was, okay, let's go forward. Let's go
01:38forward.
01:38So the reaction is what gives me being positive and make us realize that we're still on it. We have
01:46to keep going, keep going. And it's huge for us.
01:49Does Thomas see checks on this side character?
01:55And Callum Wilson also, the way he came in and gave us the goal. Huge moment for all of us
01:59that Callum again gave us.
02:02Thomas, experienced players playing these moments, it's huge. But all the players are important.
02:08You know, I've been saying this, even those that didn't come on today, they are important.
02:13And for us, it's good that we have all the squad healthy. What makes us believe that we're going to
02:19have more options and solutions in this final run?
02:22Maybe you could say that Jared and Thomas were two of David Moyes' best linings at the last time of
02:28the week.
02:28I agree. I agree. I agree. I agree. I agree. I agree. I agree. And David, I think David left
02:35a legacy here at the club.
02:37He brought success. He brought trophies. And he made it with Jared, with Thomas and some more that are still
02:45here in the squad.
02:46So, good.
02:48Some people say that Jared has maybe been a little bit, not at his top level this season. He's actually
02:53got...
02:54Two assists more today?
02:56Only Breena Fernandes has been...
02:57Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:00Is this out to show what actually the contribution...
03:04And what it means for us to have Jared leading us? He's a skipper. He's the captain of the club.
03:09You just have to see him how he works, how he gives it all. So, and today, two assists. Fantastic.
03:16You mentioned in the program about unity.
03:19Yeah.
03:19On the pitch.
03:20Yeah.
03:21I mean, I don't come here all the time. Did it feel like that? It felt like that was his
03:24biggest strength for you as anything that the players managed to do?
03:27Yeah, it's huge. I always said that as long as we give something, the fans are going to give back.
03:33And they are giving us. And you said the energy is good, the atmosphere is good. And I keep repeating
03:39myself and Home Factor. It's our home. It's going to be huge for us.
03:44Did you think it was a penalty?
03:45I didn't saw the image here, but I was scared. I was worried.
03:49You know, it's a real dominant edit from Thomas.
03:53Yeah.
03:53And you know that Edith are normally very strong enough.
03:56Yeah.
03:56Did you feel after the Liverpool game, the Merseyside Derby, that there was something you could exploit in those positions?
04:02We are being consistent in our set pieces. There's no secret. I believe that it's consistent. And it comes from
04:10the deliverer. And the deliverer was spot on. So, Thomas just has to go there.
04:14But we have Thomas, we have Dinos. Dinos has been fantastic for us in set pieces. Set pieces can change
04:20the game.
04:21You know, next week we're going to go to Brentford, throw-ins. It plays a big part in the game.
04:29Thank you.
04:30Okay. Thank you, sir. Thank you. Thank you.
04:32Thank you. Thank you.
04:33Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
