Like I told you, when we have one atmosphere like this one at Goodison,
30-40% of our job is done and they can push really our team to win not just this game but all the games because they I told you before the match in the pre-match conference they will play key part of the match they will be really the 12th player on the pitch and they were and of course what we expect the next home match I know not will be the same but I expect at least
80% what we had this afternoon here because with this atmosphere we are close to win.
Yes, I think we pressed more high, we improved our pressure in their first moment, their build-up.
The first time we had some problems with the position of Fabinho, Gylfi and Dominic we had some problems to start pressuring a little bit more like we expected, like we prepared the game also.
Different in the second half, we gave some steps forward also with Morgan and Ghana, of course we knew and we planned the match also when we start to change some players, some fresh players our team will improve, like we improved with Richardson.
and in that moment with Andre and Shane Kelp, also the team, and we play more in their own middle, the second half.
Of course, against them we have to be always aware because they are maybe the strongest team in the Premier League in counter-attack also, but I think we did well.
Our back line was good, really focused, and it's really important for us.
Okay, what I wanted really to give them was the three points.
We cannot give them, but we gave them a good performance.
We gave them that desire they want to see always in our team because we showed that desire to win the match, respecting our opponent, understanding the position they are in the table because they are showing that quality.
but we show that desire, that attitude they want to see always.
And together, as in them, we have to show again the next games during the season.
Thanks, Marco.
Disappointing result and poor performance, to be honest.
And it's the moment for us to, like always, to be honest and to look...
clear to the game.
Of course, we analysed the match more calmly.
to pass the feedback to our boys but poor performance since the first minute and we knew before the match what they came here to do and it's easy to understand even like they started the game that 4-5-1 and blocking the space waiting for our mistake it's everything what they came here to do and I've displayed some moments with Vardy in the counter-attack or some moments with Ricardo and first half of course we
