00:00Terry's congratulations, another win and another goal.
00:03Yeah, I'm happy to score, more importantly happy to get the three points.
00:08Put a big emphasis on making sure we come back off the break right.
00:13Good performance, strong performance, and because we're the home team,
00:18making sure the intensity's there and we're in control of the game,
00:21and we did that, I feel, from start to finish.
00:23Tell us a bit about the goal, made that finish look easier than it probably was.
00:27Yeah, obviously I know that Femi's going to win that one-v-one,
00:31because that's one of his strengths,
00:33so I just had to make sure I was in the right place at the right time
00:36and try and guide it, I didn't really need to put the power on the shot
00:41because it was on the cross, so I just did my best and, yeah, I won it.
00:43I know you want a few more between now and the end of the season,
00:45but does it feel good to get to double figures when you're a striker?
00:48Yeah, of course, it's the first time I've done it in my career and I'm really happy.
00:53It's been an aim and one of the little goals for me,
00:56but obviously now I've got the ten, I want 15, 20,
01:00so hopefully I can keep going and keep scoring
01:02and hopefully, more importantly, we reach our goal at the end of the season.
01:06You just seem to fit this football club, this football club fits you,
01:10why is it working so well, do you think?
01:13I just think it's a team of honest players, hard-working players,
01:17and we all are fighting for the same thing,
01:19and we bring the best out in each other,
01:21and we know each other's strengths and weaknesses,
01:24and we fight for each other until the end, as you see out there every week,
01:27so it's amazing to come into a team like that,
01:30and it's been a fresh start for me and one I've relished,
01:32and being under pressure and playing games with huge importance every week
01:38has been a new challenge for me, but I'm loving it.
01:43With every game, is that confidence growing,
01:45and did we see a bit of that a little bit at the celebration?
01:47I saw you blowing the guns out and putting it back in the holster.
01:51No, one of my friends, I was speaking to him last night,
01:54and he told me to do the celebration, so I said I would,
01:57and I scored, so I had to do it.
02:00A word on Rhian Brewster as well, he's got another goal tonight,
02:03he's had to battle so much adversity during his time at Sheffield United,
02:07but at this important time of the season, he's scoring important goals,
02:10how pleased are you for him?
02:12I'm buzzing for him, I know how it is to go through a tough time in football,
02:17injuries, people saying stuff about you in the media,
02:21it's always going to come when you're injured and not living up to what's happening,
02:25but I'm just so happy for him, he's an unreal guy,
02:29everyone loves him at the club, he's one of my closest people,
02:32so it's really nice for him to be scoring and I just hope he can continue it,
02:37and we can both just keep doing what we're doing until the end of the season.
02:40Are you going to be keeping an eye on those scores tomorrow?
02:42Yeah, I'll keep an eye on them, but I try not to get too involved in them,
02:47we've still got seven games to go, so we've just got to worry about ourselves and get the job done.
02:52Was this a bit of a statement performance though, because Coventry have been in such good form,
02:57and really didn't have much chance in this game,
03:00it was 3-1, but it could easily have been a stronger score than that, couldn't it?
03:04Yeah, I feel like I missed a couple of chances I probably should have scored,
03:08and there were other chances for other players as well,
03:11but we wanted to... I know they've done well, their form's been brilliant recently,
03:16but we felt that if we showed our intensity and our quality,
03:21that we'd have more than enough to beat them, and that's what we did tonight.
