Well, the last match

was last season, Crystal Palace here, which was a disaster.

Yeah, that was another moment you shouldn't have picked.

And this was the absolutely polar opposite.

Yes.

It was a very good, controlled, well thought through tactical display.

Impressive intensity both without the ball and we played intelligently with it and didn't panic when we were under periods of pressure from Arsenal.

And also, it's a psychological thing, isn't it, for our defence going into future games? I have to

So what do you make of our inbound business, first of all?

Well, difficult in the context of the outbounds, but I'm not sure.

I think ignoring the youngsters, because obviously Time, who we developed, I think, the jury's out, but we'll see on that.

And the whole point is to get these young players in and develop them and either move them on successfully or indeed, you know, keep them and they help us.

I mean, it's the album's track record of getting youngsters and developing has been, you know, successful by most people's standards.

Moises Coutinho is obviously the highest profile at £115 million up-sale to Chelsea.

Beliebers is actually the next highest value.

the year, yeah.

What where do you think the target should be?

Well, I think I think there are three things driving the transfer window.

in a sense.

The first is ignoring the departures and things to actually remedy the weaknesses from the squad last season.

And I think I've sort of alluded to it already, but the lack of goals.

So sort of strengthening up front is one.

Things were not helped by Zermatt.

And there's a certain way of functioning, which the club aren't willing to to bend much and I'm wondering if the level of flexibility was the issue there it's also been seen as whether really Mike Cave to do those elements of the job needed someone heavily overseeing him so it appears that Mike Cave has just taken on the mantle now in its own right he's now the technical director he will be seeking to employ an assistant which presumably is a succession planning scenario as well but that seems to be the way of it
