-TIMESTAMPS-

00:00 - Intro.

00:30 - Would you have gone and had an open chat about your problems, and should Potter be doing that?: The owners were really supportive but at the end of the day you have to win football matches.

01:01 - Dealing with Everton’s crosses: You have to try to prevent it, but that doesn't mean you can stop it.

01:21 - Stopping the crosses from the source: That’s the best way.

01:36 - Four of the next five league games are at home against bottom half sides, big opportunity: Them being bottom is not important to me, tomorrow we have to earn the right to win.

02:01 - Big chance to get momentum: We are where we are because we’ve been consistent.

02:24 - Goal difference ten less than Man City: When you have that advantage it allows you an extra game.

02:58 - Weird that someone can be good at home but poor away: I think the home advantage is there. We saw what happened during COVID (lots of away wins). The Emirates have been a different place with the fans.

03:30 - Does Everton’s mentality change away from home?: I don’t think so, but it’s the opponent that changes the approach of that team.

03:54 - Do you prefer having games in hand or a points lead?: At the end of the day we play the same amount of games. We have a huge opportunity tomorrow.

04:14 - What have you learnt from last season’s mistakes?: It was really different circumstances, tomorrow we’re going to need a perfect game to win it.

04:51 - Are Arsenal getting back to having on pitch leaders?: Yes I think we have players with different mentalities and willingness to win every game.

05:29 - Any managers you used to keep faith during the bad times?: No, I was always focused on how to turn it around, how to make them play better.

05:51 - Would you get in touch with Potter now as a sign of solidarity?: When you have a close relationship with managers, you either get in touch through a call or just a text.
