00:00I can't sit here and lie and say I haven't seen it because I have. It definitely hit
00:05Joel Inton's arm, I can give you that as well. But I'm not in control of the
00:10referee's decision, I believe that his arm's down in a natural position and I
00:14think the referee and the VAR have followed the rules and protocols that
00:18are in place, so that's why it's given. Yeah, I think there's only respectful
00:22rivalries. I don't see that there's no issue, there's just two benches full of
00:27people that are desperate to win, so I've got no issue with that. I think
00:32we're aware that there's teams in and around us that we, I wouldn't say
00:36consider rivals, but we know how important it is to try and win those
00:38games. Got full respect for Tottenham and for Ange and the way that he plays. I
00:44think they're a very, very difficult team to play against. Some very good players
00:47and that's why the wins are all the more satisfying for us.
