Yesterday you were beaten 2-0 by Tottenham,
as a consequence you've slipped a few places down the table.
(Out of breath) In fact we are now in 10th position in the league, 5
points behind Leeds, it's a shame because we had the possibility to go back
up the table after the 0-0 Leeds and Arsenal draw, and the defeat of Manchester, If
we'd have won the match we would be in 3rd place....As
I've already said, we play well one in every two matches. It's always the
same thing.
Now, we must react positively and beat Everton next Saturday.
We imagine that it was a huge disappointment to lose on home ground.
It is annoying to lose in front of
the home crowd - they give fantastic support and its quite infuriating that we've lost twice in
consecutive games.
Tottenham scored two goals in the first 20
minutes, why did you have such a bad start to the match?
For the first time this season we played a 3-5-2 formation, with individual man marking, but some of the
players found it hard to find their markers, and Tottenham profited from
this almost immediately
The first goal came due to bad positioning of
players on the pitch, which we should have avoided. For the second, Poyet
headed the ball over the keeper to score the goal. With this
system, I found myself playing more as a left back then a winger, Solano
and myself found it very difficult as we didnt see much of the ball.
How did the match progress?
We fought back, and put some pressure on them, but we were unable to
convert our chances.
You encountered a few problems on the
left, did you have any chances on goal?
I made a few passes, but I didnt get an opportunity to score, never the
less, we pushed forward, but alas, we were unable to score.
What's the programme for the week?
This morning, we had a big discussion with the coach, then we had light
training to warm down. We rest tomorrow then resume training on Wednesday,
I'm actually in the gym on the bike, that's why I'm out of breath (he
laughs).
However, I must leave you now, as the trainer doesn't really appreciate the fact that I'm on the phone, On
Thursday then. cheers.
