00:00Looking ahead to Crystal Palace, I think when you played AZ Elkmaar in the semi-final of the conference league
00:08and you got to the final, I think the Saturday after you beat Leeds or the Sunday after you beat
00:13Leeds 3-1, I think that's an indication really that you can't take the fact that a team has been
00:17in Europe for granted.
00:18No, I mean what people don't understand is how difficult it is to play the amount of games Crystal Palace
00:25have played. To play Thursday-Sunday football for a coach is really difficult because you've got such a big game
00:32in the Premier League coming up on the Sunday, but all your focus is on winning a game on a
00:37Thursday night and then trying to quickly change over and be ready for it again on the Sunday is so
00:43difficult.
00:44It sounds strange because people would say, well what's the difference between Saturday and Tuesday for example, but I just
00:50think in the way footballers and football managers work it's quite difficult.
00:55But Crystal Palace have done brilliant to get to it. A European final is sensational for them, it really is,
01:00it's such a big thing.
01:03You tend to find you have effects after the games, you've just said that we didn't after a beat AZ
01:09Elkmaar, so I'm hoping that Crystal Palace have found that they have some effects.
