00:00It's going to be a big crowd, probably twice as big as the one you played in front of last Saturday.

00:05How do you manage the nerves? Are you a nervous manager?

00:09I hope they are twice as loud as the Ipswich crowd, because the Ipswich crowd was really, really, really loud.

00:15So I'm hoping the fans can be twice as loud then as the Ipswich ones, that would be a big help for us.

00:21But no, I'm not nervous at all, certainly not at this moment, because I'm in the middle of preparation,

00:26prepare the team for Sunday, and actually, no, nerves are not there.

00:33Not even at 4.25 on Sunday?

00:35No, no, no. It wouldn't be a good thing.

00:38If you've got nerves, then probably you don't trust what you did before, you just don't trust your team.

00:43And I trust what we as a staff do during the whole week, to prepare the team in the best possible way,

00:49and I trust the team a lot as well, again on Sunday.
