...on Arsenal's performance "I feel we didnt find the technical level from the start, the pass was always too short or too long. From then on its difficult when you do not get the first ball right. When they had the ball it was windy and they put it in the air, and then we got the ball and we had to put it back down, and it did not look easy for us. You cannot say that is an undeserved result for them, but of course it is a frustrating one for us because we were twice in the lead." ...on defensive mistakes "I feel that we were caught in the air where we have shown some weaknesses today. Fortunately it is easy to work on that but as well, I think on the first goal, and on the second goal, we looked a little naive. Passive and naive. I think on the second goal we were much too high on the defensive line, to allow them space behind us, instead of attacking the ball from the box line. On the first goal from the corner the guy has a free header in the middle of the goal – you cant expect him not to score, no? Its a team problem more than an individual problem for me, especially on the second goal. I never think the solution of one team is one player." ...on Bolton "They are sharp, they run a lot, they are technically good in the middle of the park, Okocha, Campo and Speed are three good players you know. Certainly they can maintain that tempo because they are players, big team players, but they are a little bit older, so maybe for them if they had to play 3 times a week it would be difficult, but once a week they are good players and can do that very well. You can give them credit as well because they played against Liverpool, against Manchester United, against us, and they didnt lose. So certainly they are a much better side than everyone expects them to be, certainly at the moment, and maybe if we didnt play well it is a lot down to them." ...on Sol Campbell's return "If it takes one week, it takes one week, if it takes three weeks, it takes three weeks. We will give a little time, we have waited until now. Lets see how well it goes when he plays on Monday night." |
