How good has this competition been for you in recent times in terms of putting yourself on that shot window?
00:05
100 percent, that's like I said before and last season was similar.
00:09
I wasn't in the team and this competition was a chance for me to get minutes
00:13
and I impressed in the games I played and then managed to get back into the team.
00:18
So I treat it as I would any other game and I'm looking forward to it.
00:23
Has it been frustrating this year? You've not really had consistent minutes.
00:27
Yes, it has been a little bit. As a footballer,
00:31
everyone wants to play every game, every minute they can,
00:34
but sometimes it doesn't work like that.
00:36
So you have to trust in your process and do the right things
00:40
and make sure you're ready for your chance.
00:43
Does the new manager coming in offer that new chance for you?
00:45
Because under the previous manager, he sort of hinted that you weren't part of the plan.
00:49
Yes, obviously with the old gaffer,
00:53
we had a conversation and I kind of knew where I was at and then things all changed again.
00:58
So yeah, it was a new chance to impress and a new face
01:04
and I feel like if I keep doing the right things and like I said,
01:08
when the chance comes, I'm only going to put myself in a better position.
01:12
Were you close to leaving at any point before that managerial change happened?
01:16
I think when the conversation we had happened,
01:20
it wasn't long after that the gaffer left.
01:24
So it kind of never, nothing really materialised in that sort of way.
01:28
So I wouldn't say so.
01:30
Did that mindset instantly change?
01:32
As soon as that decision was made, you think, right,
01:34
this is my chance to sort of get back now?
01:37
Football's always changed.
01:38
So if you're not right mentally and you sort of let yourself go into a lull,
01:44
then it can affect your performance.
01:46
So I try to just try and stay on an even keel constantly.
