00:15good evening guys hope everyone's well we try to get as many people as we can if you have one
00:21raise
00:21your hand who wants to kick off amy from the athletic
00:30which took time to get going immediately finishes could you tell us a little bit
00:34about noni as a person as a player do we have time or no
00:44noni look at me a smile on my face because he's a special character it's uh someone very much loves
00:52in and around the dressing room and the way he connects talks to people
00:56um it's just a special guy i think i saw an interview where they were asking a few of our
01:02players who would you call if you have a problem um some of them said noni which i was surprised
01:09but i think i think it's a massive credit and and explain the kind of person that that he is
01:14he's
01:14in a good moment i think um after the break he's showing something else another level of anger another
01:21level of conviction as well in his actions and and he's becoming now uh decisive in matches which
01:28is what we expect for a player like him yes he's uh he's a player that he doesn't really mind
01:36left or
01:37right obviously he's played many more minutes on the right side but at the moment the team needs him
01:42in there as well and and it's been really well
02:02yeah but they've been other games as well that we have to score in the first half i think we
02:06play
02:0611 competitive matches we want 10 yeah so we're gonna again the variety of ways to to win in in
02:13many different contexts we knew today we wouldn't score in the first 20 30 minutes we weren't gonna
02:19face a different forest because they are extremely well course they put a christmas tree there there
02:24is no space to play uh you have to be so neat and tidy you have to otherwise generate a
02:30lot of chaos in
02:31the box whether it is in open play or or with set pieces uh we did a couple of times
02:35and created
02:36two big chances we didn't even hit the target which is the difference and the longer the game
02:41goes we say okay now we have to play a different game because the moment we start to romp our
02:45level
02:45of frustration the game is going to be really dangerous for us because we're going to take more
02:50risk which we should but the players that are especially occupying certain spaces to control those
02:55transition is going to be instrumental because at the end i had the belief that the moment the physical
03:00level was going to drop the spaces will be a little bit bigger the timing more i will be more
03:05efficient
03:05there and and the finish is delivered because the game changed and the context of that game
03:10changed a little bit and then we have to suffer because we have two or three actions that
03:14they were a bit strange to witness but they required incredible individual actions
03:19not to concede a goal
03:22just on non in michael uh you looked almost embarrassed at the end to die over and celebrate
03:26he was in the back and then deck pushed him forwards he got the love in the dressing room
03:31he was quite shy he got the love because he got some mistake in the dressing room with something
03:35that we did a few days ago and and and i'm so happy that he did it so he could
03:39give the stick back
03:40to the boys but it shows how much they like him as well and i think it was a gesture
03:45for him
03:45and just at the other end esri and gabriel just monstrous at times what more can you say on their
03:51defensive partnership was this win possible without them no because obviously they have a lot of
03:57quality they have so much physicality i mean to constantly deal with that kind of goals that we
04:01predicted 50 goals in the air and i don't know how many we had but it will be really close
04:06to that
04:07it's not only that is what happens after that ball as well uh and the consequences to that and to
04:13be on
04:13it constantly because every reaction is that the limit is very very tough and when you think that's
04:18done then chris wood comes in outside comes in and then you start to have a different problem and
04:23now you are man to man with the two center backs which is a different element of risk but that's
04:29the
04:29premier league that's the quality of it and that's the best uh league in the world
04:32it's a little bit different because i wanted something else when it is a different kind of
04:48profile in that left hand side and uh and i'm here to make decisions and uh three days ago he
04:55played he
04:55scored a goal he could have scored two or three against lila he had some really good moments and
04:59today it was different because the game and what the game required was different and we were in time
05:04to to change it and um and that's what happens and they talk about concert towards the end sorry
05:10they talk about concert unbelievable concerts and declines i think gabby had another one and
05:15that showed the spirit and and how much those boys really want to to win i think it's a good
05:21example
05:39uh yeah what i think depends the game that uh that opposition as well wants to play and today was
05:46a
05:46really different one to lil and it will be extremely different to the one that we're going to play
05:50in three days time in munich which it will going to be 96 minutes full gas man to man everything
05:56and uh and let's go but uh that's why you need to adapt to it learn from it and and
06:02try to get
06:02better for the margins are bigger okay last couple one here in front michael it's obviously an unusual
06:07season because of what has happened at the top of the table with potentially with lanchester city
06:12you presumably can only focus on yourselves and what you're doing on the field and are you pleased
06:17with the way the players have responded to that bright defeat in the light of all that 100 because
06:22now it's uh three wins after that uh that defeat as i said 11 games 10 wins uh after inheriting
06:30all the
06:3118 players coming from the world cup uh i think we're in a good place we can always improve and
06:36we should
06:36improve and that's the ambition that we want to be to be the best version of ourselves and nothing
06:41enjoy it a little bit because on wednesday another big one is coming up and then on saturday
06:46and finally nick at the back you've already had wins at uh forestville and sundown where you didn't
06:52win last season what does that say about your team
06:57that it shows even that we were champion how difficult it is and that's the reality and to
07:01expect another different kind of game i think it's not the reality of the league and uh and certainly we
07:08don't think that way and uh we win this way and almost every game every team is winning that in
07:15that manner and i think the level is going up again i will have more and more surprises okay thanks
07:22thanks everyone thank you
