It's a great place to be at the moment.

We've just got to keep that feeling and bottle it as best as we can going into the next game.

And then when you watch anyway, you see the level that they're playing at.

They're a very, very good team in so many ways, and coached so well.

So we totally understand that.

The boys understand that and are fully prepared for that.

It's not about who we play against so much.

It's about how can we be at our best with the emotion, with the level of concentration, the obviously tactical awareness,

all the different levels everything you've got to bring to get the feelings that we've had you've got to keep bringing that week in week out and in the end consistency is what tells the story of your level of success so that's our biggest challenge of us being at that level often enough to give ourselves a chance of winning

I'm certainly not going into the game feeling all of a sudden we've done that and this game's going to be different and we'll go and enjoy it and let's play with the ball and score loads of goals and that's just totally couldn't be any further away from it with the total opposite if anything and the things that have enabled us to get the results

is working together, defending well as a team.

We've got good players and we can play good football at times.

And we did second half against Arsenal.

We came out, we controlled it, we ended up scoring.

So we've got to get the balance.

And again, I can't say it is strong enough.

It doesn't matter who we're playing.

It's about what we do and we've got to keep repeating them and if not improving on the levels of performance every week.

I just think it's whatever the boys need, really.

However that is, is it firing them up?
