00:00 I think it's clear. We're in a position now where...
00:06 And as well, I think it's more, you know, he came in from a very small club before coming to us
00:15 and we believe he's going to be an important striker in the Premier League.
00:19 And I think when you compare what the benchmarks are in the Premier League,
00:22 I think that it was maybe a slight correction from our side and also making sure that we could
00:28 have him a little bit longer at the club. So we're really happy with that.
00:31 You speak about settling in. We've got another 14 in the squad at the moment doing exactly that
00:35 and it took him six months. But he's happy and he's performing well. And also, it's not just
00:45 what he's shown on the pitch, it's also what he's shown off the pitch. His character, he's
00:48 dependable, he's hardworking, he's a player that's there for the team and also able to
00:55 compete at this level. So I think it's good for the club. It's his choice to be open about it.
01:03 And I think that maybe helps him and helps others and that's good. But in the end, he's just fine.
01:09 He's been happy, performing, doing everything he needs to do. He's stable. And every now and then,
01:16 we just make sure that we support him in the way he needs to be supported.
