00:22I think the performance overall was good, we struggled the first 5-10 minutes and then
00:29because we were pressing in the wrong way and then we adjust something and after that
00:34I think we were in control, we scored four, we could have scored probably more and we didn't concede a
00:40lot.
00:41Ryan's score applies to 20 goals, you didn't start in the last game, you started in this time, I guess
00:47he's happy now, right?
00:48Yeah, for sure he's happy but his performance for me was very good, not because of the two goals but
00:56the way he works off the ball, he has to press, he was in charge when Palace has the ball,
01:02he was in charge of Wharton
01:04and I think his game was a complete game, on the ball and off the ball.
01:10What's he like to work with Ryan? Because he looks pretty unpredictable, a bit of a maverick,
01:16but as a manager is sometimes that difficult to deal with or would you just enjoy what he does?
01:20No, first of all he loves football and so it's much more easy to work with him and then is
01:28Ryan,
01:29Ryan is like this, we know how good he is, we know the quality that he has, in this moment
01:36he's helping the team
01:38with also with the numbers in terms of assist and goal and no doubt that he's going to help the
01:42team also in the future.
01:43The response that you have from players since you've been two wins this season,
01:50are they playing so long today?
01:52Yeah, no, no, absolutely, but especially I like the sacrifice or the desire of the ball
02:01because if we are able to match the intensity, the desire of different opponents, I think with the quality we
02:08have
02:08we can do something important, but again, we were good on the ball but I think we were very, very
02:14good also off the ball.
02:19You used Mark Gahey in midfield last week, obviously he was back in defence tonight, but he has a lot
02:24of work to do on the left-hand side,
02:26especially when having to attack him, but he was just as impressive again tonight.
02:31Is he going to be one of the captains, do you think, or if not, is his leadership really important?
02:38It was impressive, as you said, last week against Bournemouth as a midfielder, tonight as a central defender.
02:45It's what we need, a player open mind, a player that they can be versatile and also try to help
02:52the team.
02:53His performance tonight was very good, we see, we have two, three more days for the window transfer
03:01and as I said in the last press conference, then we decide for two more captains and we see.
03:13Yeah, we know that most of the time if we are able to create chances, he's going to score goals.
03:20I think he had a couple chances against Bournemouth, unfortunately he missed, but tonight, again, he scored twice,
03:25he could have scored probably one or two more, but yeah, we are happy that he scored, we are happy
03:31that we won the game.
03:38I had a chat with Jack yesterday, again, we see what's happening in the next 48-72 hours and we
03:46see.
03:48Ryan was actually very critical of his own performance in the first half, did you have to say anything during
03:55the half-time?
03:56No! No, no, no, no, no, no. Probably he wasn't playing on his level in the first half,
04:06but again, overall I was happy with this performance of the ball.
04:10Then in the second half he scored twice and for sure he was much more happy.
04:19thank you
