00:00 Yeah, no, nothing's really surprised me about Sonny.

00:02 As you said, I've known him for a long time.

00:05 The quality he has as a player is pretty evident to anybody who's sort of been following the Premier League and world football.

00:12 And, you know, I had the advantage of already sort of having a glimpse into him as a person.

00:17 And I guess the only new thing for him is that he's, you know, taken over a sort of leadership role within the group here.

00:24 And, you know, again, he's taken to that really well.

00:29 He's embraced the actual responsibility, both in and around sort of the culture and the environment here,

00:35 but also, you know, during games, you know, when we've needed him to step up.

00:38 So, yeah, look, all those three players will be a big loss for us.

00:43 But it's kind of been the story of our season.

00:45 We've had to cope without significant players so far.

00:49 And as I said, you know, that's kind of what we've been dealt with.

00:53 And we'll just have to deal with it as we have.
