00:00 You've picked up more points away from home this season than you have at Goodison, you're going to United where they've not been particularly consistent this season.
00:07 So how much do you look forward to a game at Old Trafford? Because years ago it used to be a fortress, maybe not so at the moment.
00:13 No, look, they're still a good outfit, they've still got some very strong players, we know that.
00:17 So there's certainly no gimmies at Old Trafford and there isn't across football.
00:21 But I think the belief, it's a strange conundrum really, when I got here there was a load of noise about many things,
00:29 but especially about their way form, we've somewhat corrected that, still work to be done.
00:34 And that's kind of then softened down the home form.
00:37 I don't think the home form though, it's important that you use that word, because when people talk about form,
00:41 that's not winning or losing, form is the level of performance.
00:44 And I think the level of performance has been overall, overall has been pretty decent.
00:49 Finding the moments that make them decent performance into wins, that's the trickiest part and that's the most important part.
00:56 And I'm absolutely acutely aware of that.
00:59 But you know yourself, the perception of playing and form is a completely different thing from most people's views.
01:05 If you're winning all the time, trust me, it can mask a lot of things that are not right with the performance.
01:09 Equally, if you're not winning as much, then it shows the reasons why, but usually it's goals.
01:15 Not always, usually it's goals. And in our case it's goals, because I think the performance has been decent.
