00:00I think expectation and pressure is on probably both sides. I know the rivalry between us
00:10and Bolton in terms of where they are as a club. Obviously, I'm on the outside. I think
00:15last year I thought they were a really good side. We were very clinical in that first
00:20game at Bolton, extremely clinical. Some of the players we had at that point were devastating
00:25in the final third, but they were a good team last year. I think they're probably a
00:30better team this year. I think they've strengthened again in the summer. They've still got the
00:33same four players. It's going to be a huge test for us, but we have to go there and try
00:41and play the way that we do, whether we change some things slightly in terms of without the
00:45ball. We have to go there and try and do what we do. I think I've been here almost a couple
00:55of years now, maybe 97 or 98 games. If we were to win this one, it definitely feels
01:01like it would be the biggest one so far.
