0:00 Intro
0:13 - Everton Job is not bigger than I thought it would be, it’s challenging
1:22 - We allowed Tottenham to do what they wanted to do, individual mistakes. We’ve started well in the away games and then something happens and the game turns
2:39 - I’ve changed approach a few times already, mainly due to injuries. Any team that loses two frontline CBs, it would become difficult
3:35 - Dele is fit and ready to start. Am I considering it? Always. He hasn’t played much first-team football in recent months
4:29 - We have to be in a position where the next game is most important, a lot of points to play for
5:34 - I don’t know specifics, I’ve managed and played at Chelsea and have many friends, knowing them well of course I’d care. I care about the fans. I don’t want to hang on it too much. On a human level you care a lot
6:47 - Contract situations? Tough for players, players can worry about themselves. A lot of players will concentrate on the job at hand but it’s bigger than that, not just Chelsea
7:57 - It was my son’s first birthday, you find the balance between family time and watching the games when you’re not playing
9:01 - It’s a testing time, players have a lot to deal with and it’s my job to pick the best team as I see fit
9:43 - Nathan Patterson is a developing player, we need to help him settle and then find the right time to give him his chance
10:47 - Goodison factor is important, it’s giving the team energy and legs. It’s given us a boost compared to playing away from home
11:50 - Wolves, have consistency. They have a formula and are building something very positive. They’re good to watch and don’t concede many goals
13:10 - Mental side of the game is a big part of the game, there is an element of tactics etc but there is a huge part around the mental side of things
14:34 - Being brutally honest is the only way, you have to be very candid with the players. We shouldn’t overreact but we have to look at what went wrong against Spurs
15:33 - Pressure on Anthony Gordon? Possibly, I came through myself as a local lad but I’ve seen a lad who trains really well and he clearly cares
16:40 - I know David Unsworth, I like to give young players a pathway.
17:52 - I definitely had situations where we lost badly, I’ve had crisis meetings, we then won the Champions League, I’m not showing off there
19:08 - Crisis? It’s a lovely headline, it’s very normal. I’ve had bad ones, that happens in football and particularly in position we’re in. I didn’t think I’d come here and win 15 games on the bounce
20:35 - Message to fans? I’m very much ready for the fight and the challenge, the fans will see that in how we approach the game on Sunday. We appreciate their support and remain confident
21:38 - Director of football? He can’t score a hat trick!
22:26 - I coul
