Dele, yourselves and several of your teammates just back from World Cup duties, just how was it out there for you?

As a result, was it tough out there today?

A warm day also?

Great result to start.

Dele, you're the Premier League man of the match.

Jan, do the honors for us, please.

Well done, guys.

Jamal, nothing to show for it in the end, but how many grounds for encouragement on the basis of that 90 minutes?

What was the thinking going into the second half?

Because that's when you as a team look particularly strong.

So, defeat, but plenty of positives.

Rafa, commiserations, nothing to show for it, but what, in your opinion, did that performance deserve today?

You mentioned chances.

One sticks out in particular, the one for Kennedy at the start of the second half.

Should he have done better?

You have brought a couple of strikers in in the transfer window.

We saw them get on the pitch today.

Given that, how encouraging was it for you to see Hosolu get on the score sheet in the opening game as he did?

You started the second half as a team particularly strongly against this Spurs side.

What was your message to your players at that point?
