00:00I can reply but I'd rather not go into specifics. What I would say is that it's been really disappointing to come to this and the ending that it transpired to.
00:16Like I say, really disappointing. It's been a challenging couple of days for many people, not just myself. Obviously a lot of people here at the club as well.
00:23We never like to hear that a player has not had a good experience of being at the club.
00:29Look at the move that's been achieved. It's a rival and they made the best offer. So we've certainly not stood in the way of a player being able to go and make the move that they want to make.
00:39These are strong accusations, aren't they? She's suggesting that some people in the club have been briefing against her, they've been trying to assassinate her character.
00:50That's such a strong turn of phrase. How is that for the manager to hear a player talk like that?
00:56I'll be honest, I don't live in that world of social media. I think any head coach will tell you it's not good for your health.
01:03But these are her words though, aren't they?
01:05They're kind of new to me. My job is to really prepare the team for a big game against Arsenal at the weekend and work with the players who are really committed to the club.
01:14That's my stance on it. I've tried to give you a bit of an insight. I can't really go into real detail about how we see it on our side of the story.
