00:00A good win against a strong Arsenal side, what pleased you most about tonight's performance?
00:05Maybe the second half, where we had a lot of problems with Arsenal because they were constantly all over us I would say.
00:14But we defended really strong, kept them away from our 16, I don't think they created that many chances.
00:20So that was a positive thing because you will always have difficult times in a game.
00:24And if you fight like this, so many bodies behind the ball, defending in front of goal was really good.
00:29So that was pleasing to see and of course I think we all enjoyed the first half, after the first 10 minutes.
00:36Two goals of the highest quality, a couple of assists for Harvey Elliott, how satisfying were they to see?
00:42It was satisfying to see us creating that many chances against a strong opponent like Arsenal.
00:49Honestly they had a few in the first half as well, I think the first half was quite an equal game.
00:56After the first 10 minutes because we started real poor, they did what we intended to do.
01:01They played every ball in behind the last line.
01:04But after that I think both teams had a lot of chances and it was good for us that we scored two.
01:10What I didn't like was conceding out of a second phase of a set-piece.
01:14Because the game with 2-0 up half-time is much different than conceding one out of a set-piece and then go half-time with 2-1.
01:22Ibu and Ryan have joined up with the group in the last couple of days.
01:25What's the plan for them during our time in the US and are we likely to see them against Manchester United?
01:30Yes we will, if they stay fit in the upcoming two days they will play like Djoko today, 45 minutes against United.
01:36So pleased to see they are back, came back in real good shape.
01:40And looking forward to see them in a game because I think both of them have shown that they are very good players.
01:46Alongside a lot of hard work on the training ground, the lads have taken in a baseball game,
01:50they visited the Rocky Steps, a unique session there in the boxing gym.
01:54How much has everyone enjoyed their time in Philadelphia?
01:57I think till now we've enjoyed it a lot.
02:00But in football it's always about the games and about the results.
02:03And it helps if you have a tour like this that you get results in.
02:07And I think the boys will be pleased about the way we played.
02:10Like I said, especially the first half after the first ten minutes.
02:15And I think that stands out more than going to the Rocky Steps or going to a Rocky Gym.
02:20But I do feel the boys have enjoyed our tour till now.
