I'm not sure it's yet the right time, as I said, to reflect on the whole thing because
00:05
there's just too much at stake in the next few games.
00:08
But in general, in many, many, many occasions, our team has really shown really positive
00:16
signs for this level.
00:18
But, OK, that's...
00:22
So you mentioned the away games against the top teams and stuff, and usually you're thinking
00:26
if you do that against the top teams, if you bring the same level when you play against
00:31
the teams that are more in and around you, that will do.
00:35
But it's not just that.
00:36
So I think the bigger focus for us now is on drawing a line on the most of it in terms
00:48
of, yeah, we know we can perform, but we want to win.
00:54
We want to win.
00:55
We don't want to go down.
00:56
We don't want to accept this situation.
00:59
We want to rebel against it.
01:00
We don't care if people believe in us or think...
01:03
Because it's an interesting thing.
01:07
I think you mentioned last time it was a 5 per cent chance that we stay up.
01:10
It was Opta that mentioned it, right?
01:14
So I don't know what it is now after the Arsenal game, but I know what the public perception
01:19
will be on this stuff.
01:20
It does make me angry at all, by the way.
01:22
It's absolutely normal and logical to think this way, but if you keep that side out of...
01:28
If you keep the normal and logical in it as well, you can also say that...
01:32
I was mentioning to my players this week that I think there's 250 million people in the
01:39
world who play football.
01:40
There's about 400, 450 that play football in the Premier League.
01:45
Do you know what the odds are for us to make it into this league?
01:50
It's not going to be 5 per cent.
01:51
You know what I mean?
01:52
It's a fraction of a per cent.
01:54
Chance that we have to be in this position and me talking to you and these guys playing
01:59
in the Premier League.
02:00
So why would they have to wait for anybody else to tell them what their chances are?
02:07
They just have to believe in it themselves and they just have to make it happen like
02:10
they did it when they made a professional career out of nothing.
