00:00Obviously, we're looking at the title race and see the gap is four points at the moment,
00:04but when we look at the game against Brentford,
00:06there's an opportunity to put pressure on Arsenal now because they play after you,
00:10so how do you see it?
00:11Does it come into the thinking now that you can ask the question of Arsenal
00:14and then they have to respond?
00:15No, I don't look at it that way.
00:17I didn't even know that they were playing later than us.
00:20I only look at the opponent we have to face, and I know that's a tough one.
00:24It was my first Premier League game, I think, and then I already thought,
00:30if this is going to be the resistance we get every week,
00:35then this is a more difficult league than the other division,
00:41which I knew before I came, but it was proven that day as well.
00:44They've had a very good season till now, had a 2-2 against City, great game,
00:50both teams creating a lot of chances,
00:54and their manager has done a fantastic job for so many years now,
00:58you can see it's a team that has worked together with their manager for a long time.
