00:00 It's not his mistake, it's our mistake.
00:02 Or do you call it a mistake? I don't know.
00:04 But it's how we play.
00:06 Make a change.
00:08 He's scored goals for us
00:10 doing what he does.
00:12 You know, it's one of those.
00:14 It's not an issue. You might find it more of an issue.
00:16 But honestly, I don't.
00:18 I really don't. It's
00:20 how we like football.
00:22 Now it might not be for everyone.
00:24 Not here to please everyone.
00:26 But we believe
00:28 in this way of football.
00:30 It might be naive, like I was saying earlier on.
00:32 I don't know.
00:34 I have a three year old girl
00:36 who still believes in rainbows and unicorns.
00:38 Maybe that's for me.
00:40 You know what I mean? I honestly believe we're going to get out
00:42 of this situation. I believe we're going to
00:44 stay up. I really do.
00:46 You know, and like I said,
00:48 maybe I might be naive or maybe I'm the one believing
00:50 in rainbows and unicorns and it's actually got to my head
00:52 and it's actually a real world.
00:54 But at the same time, I don't honestly
00:56 have no issue with it.
00:58 I'm always top.
01:00 Top. Get the ball again.
01:02 Get it again. Look for the pass again.
01:04 You know, see the save he makes in the last minute?
01:06 Top.
01:08 That to me is a goalkeeper.
01:10 We all make mistakes.
01:12 There ain't anyone in this room, there ain't anyone
01:14 anywhere who doesn't make a mistake.
01:16 It's how you respond from it. And to me,
01:18 that's why I got nothing but
01:20 praise for him even more.
01:22 Because he's willing to keep going.
01:24 Don't worry about it.
01:26 That's life. I think a lot of players
01:28 have that. I don't think you can get to
01:30 top level football if you don't have that.
01:32 You make mistakes
01:34 like he would have made numerous
01:36 mistakes all through his career and his development
01:38 to get where he is now.
01:40 And I believe that's why you see the top players
01:42 playing at this level.
01:44 Because mistakes are part of the game.
01:46 You know, and like I said earlier,
01:48 it's life as well.
01:50 You know what I mean? But it's how you respond from it.
01:52 Being a goalkeeper as well,
01:54 I'm not a goalkeeper so I'm not...
01:56 It's easier for me, I can make a lot of mistakes
01:58 in the game when I was playing.
02:00 And I'd be very lucky if one of them
02:04 ever counted in a goal.
02:06 That was the luxury of playing higher up the pitch.
02:08 That's why I probably spent most of my time being there.
02:10 But yeah, as a goalkeeper
02:12 as well, I think you always
02:14 look at the strength of character before anything.
02:16 What's he like after a mistake?
02:18 And I don't believe there's any goalkeeper,
02:20 especially a top level, who hasn't got a strength
02:22 of character once he's made a mistake. Otherwise they wouldn't be there.
02:24 They would have been found out a lot earlier.
02:26 And maybe
02:28 this type of level football wouldn't be
02:30 for them. So that's not a concern with Arrow.
