No, I think at this minute nobody but the players deserve the praise.
Game plan is one thing, but how you have to...
how you have to bring it to life and the mentality they have shown.
It's all about the players and not the game plan.
Yes, the idea was probably not the worst, but how the players have done it today, the mentality and the spirit and the aggression, this was great and I think it was a deserved win.
Yeah, I think at the end we wanted to try to beat them with their own weapon.
It's a ball possession team and we wanted to dominate the ball possession if possible and we had to limit their ball possession and for this we wanted to press them high, go in their face.
We really wanted to make sure that we build up a proper fighting zone where they had no chance to turn.
and to play their circulation and their football, what they are very strong at, everybody is aware about this.
This is what we wanted to minimise, and on the other hand we wanted in ball possession to keep the ball, to circulate the ball as well, and I think both offensively and defensively the players have done it fantastic.
Yes, they had some chances,
especially in the second half but listen if you play against wolfham there's a way you can't avoid it but at the end i think we had our opportunities as well and it was as i said that he served with it's a long time since you scored two goals in a premier league match when was the last time you looked so threatening in the game no listen we all together we we know we not
As poor as maybe everybody thinks that we are, we have shown good performances in this season so far without enough goals and without enough points, but performance-wise this was more often very good and today the players got the reward and I'm so happy for them because they really deserved it.
This was a big moment for us because we had already four points out of the two games before.
We wanted to try to create a wave where we can serve on, and this is now what we like to do and what we like to continue.
Apart from the two goals, we have another clean sheet today, which was important.
We looked defensively very solid as well.
And at the end, it's all about the players and how they dig into this game and how they played as well.
To be totally honest, I think my English is not good enough to find the right words to describe what the players have done over the whole season and then for sure as well.
Tonight, I think we have seen today everything what counts for us and this is desire, passion.
