I think people need to sort of understand, you're talking about, you know, a 19-year-old
00:06
player who's got to make a major decision about his career and it's not so much that
00:10
he rejected us or rejected anyone else, I think, rightly so, he was getting as much
00:14
information as possible and I think more than anything he just wanted to be comfortable
00:19
with the decision, I think he didn't feel, the sense I get was he didn't want to be sort
00:24
of pushed into a certain direction and I think it's credit to him that he didn't, you know,
00:29
he took his time, he wanted to talk to all the right people, I had a conversation with
00:33
him and I guess mine was around, purely around the football that I think, you know, I think
00:38
you'll find a really great place for him here in terms of where he is in his career.
00:41
So you were 100% convinced that he is sold on this?
00:44
Oh 100%, yeah, more than 100% because, like I said, because he took so much time and was
00:49
so diligent about finding out everything when he made the decision that it's us and he obviously
00:54
had options and that sort of gave me even more confidence that we were getting the right
01:01
kind of mentality, the right kind of play, he's very ambitious, he's got a great deal
01:08
of self-belief and self-confidence, he feels like he can reach the very top of the game
01:12
and he's chosen us which is, I think, a great vindication for what we're doing.
