00:00I'm sure that looked like a really satisfying night, was it for you?
00:18I think in many ways yeah I think the first thing is the performance level I
00:23thought you know without really opening too much in the first half I thought it was a very
00:27solid performance and we were asking questions second half a little bit more
00:30freedom came into the play particularly in the top third which is what I spoke
00:33to about a half time and I'm pleased I delivered that we've got three goals on
00:37another day could have had maybe another maybe another couple I think better has
00:41a great chance and from a great cross so yeah overall pleasing you know a lot of
00:46noise about our start but I think you know showed we still have got a group
00:49that are alive here and some good players
00:52yeah we put him wide because I think that's a good position for him and he's
00:59shown that since he's been here and I've spoken recently about the development of
01:03these players you know you could see tonight you know for Jasper it's a
01:06different thing you know learning about the realities of what the league offers
01:09at this level you know the Premier League is with all due respect to Tom
01:12Castor by the way because I love their staff and I like what they do there and
01:14they were close last season you know there's a step to go and I think he's
01:19developing inside he's learning about it through the training program through
01:22these these games when we can get games Jake as well you know that you know
01:27learning about the nuts and bolts here and then at the stadium as well of
01:31course in front of the fans so it's all part of their they're learning about
01:34whatever the football club is so I was pleased for them and also some of the
01:37players who have come in and done well tonight because Jimmy Garner and Seamus
01:42haven't had much training at all you know for them to come in and play well
01:46and put themselves out there has been has been different class because
01:49important we rebuild the squad in its fitness and make sure we get as many
01:53bodies out there and they've done really well tonight to get through that and
01:56hopefully come through and skate
02:01yeah I mean I think you know we want all of the group to lay down markers you
02:06know and it's not just about new players it's about every player can they keep
02:10re-evolving if you like you know for the next challenge and that's what I've had
02:13to do as you well know many times you know the challenges come we have to go
02:17again and go again and go again and there's another challenge at the moment
02:21so that's a mini step forward the reason why it's only a mini step forward because it's a cup
02:25competition the leagues that be on end all we all know that so our next step is
02:28to go in on Saturday and deliver a performance that can win on Saturday
02:31and just finally last few days of the transfer market being linked heavily of
02:34Oral Mangala tonight anything you can say on that well I can say that we've been linked heavily with
02:38about a hundred players so you know as far as I know at this stage unlikely
02:43that anything changes but we'll see
03:00well we had four new players out there you know Tim's slightly different he's
03:04been through us three preseason but even for Tim I think he's doing absolutely
03:08different class you know I think his equivalent minutes in the Premier League
03:12were about two games last season so to be having a full preseason and doing
03:16what I was doing I'm really pleased with that Harrison gets some minutes as well
03:19so yeah I mean that there's signs of the group you know the collective group and
03:24that's what we need to do we need to be a group and we need to be an adjoined
03:28group for the challenge that comes our way
03:35possibly we're waiting it was just a risk a reward scenario there's possibly
03:39something gonna happen but we're waiting on that but it was just what I'm
03:42where we thought we'll common sense prevails
03:53I don't I don't think I need to mention anything other than the fans have
03:57mentioned so the fans it seems to me from what I gather and I've kept me on
04:00it I've rallied round and said they feel it's unacceptable so there's enough fans
04:04in this stadium and there's enough fans across the world and across England for
04:08Everton and if they say it's unacceptable then they know more about
04:11it than me so I'm happy with the fact that they've gone no there's a certain
04:15line we think some people have crossed it it is only some don't forget you know
04:18that's frustration can lead to all sorts of situations so but the masses of fans
04:23who seem to have got involved in that moment have actually said no that's too
04:27far so they've dealt with it it doesn't need me to deal with it
