00:00Last night in the game against Manchester United we saw the good, the bad and the ugly.
00:06Is it difficult to know what to expect from these players sometimes,
00:09because they can be so inconsistent at times?
00:12They are consistent in their playing style and what they want,
00:17and for me they are sometimes a bit unlucky as well,
00:20because what happened yesterday, they dominated the game.
00:23They always like to attack, so sometimes he plays with...
00:29Always with three attackers, then with two attacking midfielders,
00:33their full-backs join the attack so much.
00:38And yesterday for me they were so unlucky,
00:42so people say, why do you bring the ball out from the back?
00:44Because they lost the ball.
00:46And the second one, the goalkeeper wanted to kick it away,
00:48which is what everybody wants then, but it's still a goal.
00:50So, four-three, I don't think there are many season ticket holders in the country
00:58that can say they watched so many great games, maybe the ones at Liverpool.
01:04But, yeah, I think it's a privilege to be a season ticket holder at Tottenham,
01:11it's a privilege to be a fan of them at the moment,
01:13because they play such a great style.
01:15And it's not like since Ainge arrived they don't win anything anymore,
01:20before that they were not a club that won many things,
01:24but what they always won is the sympathy of the fans, in Europe,
01:28maybe also in England, I don't know, but definitely in Europe,
01:30because of the style of play they had.
01:33And that is something which he must not underestimate.
01:37If I think about Spurs, I think about the shirt,
01:39I think about the playing style, about their identity, about certain players,
01:43and for me he brought that back completely.
01:48Van Schendelen said in an interview he thinks football management is the hardest job in the world,
01:53even harder than being the Prime Minister, what do you think of that?
01:57I've said so many positive things now about him and his style,
02:02that if I say another thing it seems like I'm his agent.
02:07But I also like the way he presents himself in the media,
02:11he always finds a different way of saying things.
02:14I heard this remark about him saying that we are judged every weekend,
02:18and the Prime Minister has only been judged once every three or four years,
02:23although in Holland after a year we already have new elections, so the last few years.
02:28I think it's right that people talk more about the decisions managers make
02:36than the decisions a Prime Minister makes, that is definitely true.
02:41But it's also true that the decisions the Prime Minister has to make
02:45are a bit more important than the ones we have to make.
