00:00Do you think Stefan did well? He dropped it quite deep tonight at the Boston.

00:04Well, I think when people got the team, they'd probably think Ryan was going to play as a six and the holder,

00:09and Steph plays an eight. But, you know, we've seen Steph, I've watched Steph every game, not live,

00:15but that he's played for Iceland and he does play as a deeper one to try and get on the ball.

00:19And we thought, you know, he will go and get on the ball, especially on a surface like that, and get his playing.

00:25And Ryan is, you know, we wanted him to be aggressive tonight and get up tight and get his tackles in

00:31and get in the box as well, because he can finish when he gets in there. He's shown that in training.

00:35So, all round, there was a nice little balance in there.

00:38Gibson's looking really sure so far, I think you knew when you were bringing him in.

00:42Yeah, he's been terrific, I've got to say. And I think, you know, there have been a couple of weeks

00:48where you never thought of leaving Linz out, even though, obviously, he's been unfortunate with his injury.

00:52Obviously, Linz will be back, there's no doubt about that. But it's good, strong competition we've got there now.

00:57And, as you say, I thought, along with the other two centre-backs, I think I could go out throughout the team

01:03and, you know, everyone did the job tonight and were really professional.

01:07And, yeah, I don't think, you know, he kept most things off Freddy, really.

01:12He had one or two things straight at him, but other than that, yeah, defended strongly.

01:17But also, the key is to make sure we're a threat and, you know, we were a threat tonight and that's what we've got to be.
