Football London
What are your views on the game?
Really important to win and bounce back as you mentioned. With a game that had different phases in the first half. We were able to take the game where we wanted, but without really threatening or hurting them enough. We lacked some urgency and some composure in the final third to deliver better balls and more composure in our finishing action because we didn’t hit the target enough with the attempts that we had. In the second half we had to be patient not to lose any structure in our play because we were controlling them quite well. We needed to threaten certain spaces more, I think we did, we scored two goals and after that I thought we were more in control.
Two great finishes by Bukayo Saka and Martinelli. What will that do for them?
The finish and the combination from Bukayo and again the composure he showed inside the box to place the ball inside the box in the right area. Gabi’s run after, great delivery from Tomi as well, the technique to keep the ball down is impressive.
How far can you go with this team and do you feel like you’re in the mix for a top four place?
We go game by game. After the defeat at Anfield you see things in a different perspective maybe. We’ve been on a good run and we need to keep going. Let’s see where it takes us. Now we need to analyse this game and start to prepare the game against United as quick as possible because we don’t have many days…
