00:00The rest of the squad all right? Everyone good, isn't it?
00:03Yeah, I'm trying to think who's...
00:05Will obviously didn't use him, did you, against Blackburn, but he's fine.
00:08Yeah, do you know what?
00:10It probably would have come on at half-time because of the way we were playing
00:14and dominating and we needed that ball into that top end of the pitch
00:19and looked after, but then the game and our game plan had to change totally on 40 minutes.
00:25So it became the game against Fulham with the man down, if you know what I mean,
00:29back eight defending and then our wide players and our nine breaking as quick as we could
00:33when we won the ball.
00:36And to be fair, I thought everyone contributed to that.
00:38Pottsy got forward still, Hughes got forward on his side,
00:40so we're really pleased with the players,
00:43you know, considering we only had ten.
00:45Are you keen to improve Emile's, that side of his game, linking it?
00:48I'm assuming you would have brought Will on for Emile, is that somewhere you could improve?
00:51No, no, no, we could look at both of them.
00:54We saw that in the first game at Luton how they combined well.
00:57But if you want to build and build at the pitch, you have to have focal points at the top of the pitch
01:02and look after the ball when you're playing to them.
01:04And yeah, it wasn't Emile and Sam's best game in terms of that for them,
01:08you know, in the first half, but it's something that we know we can do.
01:11We know we want to play that way.
01:13We'll gradually keep working on it and pushing to get better and better.
01:18And they understand that if we do build and we get into those areas of pitch,
01:21then all of a sudden their supply line is coming off 20, 30-yard passes
01:24rather than 60, 70-yard passes, which is what they want.
01:27So yeah, it's something we'll improve.
