00:00The joyous thing, Stefan, that might be the case when you're signed,

00:02you know, it might not work straight away and I might have to ease myself in

00:05and then I'll really show myself.

00:07Yeah, of course.

00:09I feel it went very strong from early on, you know,

00:12played a lot of pre-season games, started every game there

00:15and then started the season as well when everything that happened, happened.

00:19But that's like past us.

00:21And now it's just about showing

00:25the manager and everything that he should take me.

00:28It seems like they've made a big impression on you, Paul and his assistant.

00:32What have they done? Is it just tactics, meetings, the way they carry themselves?

00:35It's everything.

00:36The way they carry themselves, we're not supposed to be,

00:39and we're not a small team.

00:41We have to go out there and win the games, take the teams and

00:45make the games our game and not be trailing

00:48and be on the front foot, on our toes and ready to go forward.

00:51And can you just feel a belief in the squad that you'll climb that table?

00:54It's a matter of time.

00:55Yeah, 100 percent.

00:57If you look at the results and the performances of our last games,

01:01I feel like we're on our way up and it will continue like that.

01:05But you've settled living in England, have you?

01:07Not too different, is it, to Denmark?

01:09No, it's very similar, I would say.

01:11You know, everybody's really nice and it's good to have

01:14the Danish boys and a nice-sounding friend who lives in Manchester as well.

01:18So it's easy for the family to come over.

01:21You know, only two hours flight from Manchester back home.

01:24So it's been good.

01:25Pretty cool city, isn't it, Manchester?

01:27Yeah, it's brilliant.

01:28It's not too big, but it's good.

01:33It's only a small drive to the train station, so I'm happy.

01:37With the Iceland team, do you feel like a real main player in that?

01:39Because they're always checking you, you start every game pretty much, don't you?

01:42Yeah, these last two windows have been really good for me personally.

01:46I've played the full 90 minutes in those three games

01:50and I feel like the manager believes in me

01:53and the talks we have are good and hopefully that can continue.

01:58You mentioned being a bit different to the other midfielders here.

02:00Is it that you can do a bit of everything, whereas other people may be a bit more niche?

02:04Yeah, in terms of myself, I feel like I can do everything

02:09all around the midfield and I just need to show it more

02:13and just take the game into the initiative in the games more.

02:19And hopefully that will show.

02:21One of those long shots going to fly in soon?

02:23Yeah, those have to come in at one point.

02:25I think last season scoring a lot of goals, having the confidence there,

02:28it's just about getting that first goal and then the relief and the confidence back.

02:33Yeah, there's no better time really for midfielders to start chipping in

02:36because Militan and Will are out, so there's a big onus on Rhys.

02:40But if you guys can chip in, it's huge.

02:43Yeah, 100%.

02:43A lot of us have to step up now, me, Mass, Sam

02:48and a lot of other players attacking midfielders have to go in and get some goals now

02:52that Militan and Keem are away.
