edgar everybody experience help home lack mentality prove squad tells terrific winning
We have a terrific young squad but we lack a winning mentality which you can only get through experience. He has the mentality to help us make a big step. Everybody tells me we have the players, but we have to prove it. Away from home we have to do better. Edgar can help us.
champions everybody league main wants
Everybody wants us to be in the Champions League because that would be unbelievable. This is in our hands. But we are there and that is the main thing.
bit european everybody fighting fights-and-fighting game
Everybody is fighting for a European spot, and every game is a big fight. Today, I think we were a bit fortunate.
both deal entitled everybody good half next signing signs trying works
Everybody is entitled to get a good deal and he is trying to do that. He will tell you that he has got another two and a half years on his contract. That is a long time, but it works both ways. If he signs he will be better off and if he is not signing he will be in the same situation. He will still be here for at least next season.
believed cheap decision gamble gave goals matches seven three win

bad defenders europe given giving goals high line taste
I still have a bad taste about the first goal. In Europe there won't be a lot of linesmen giving this as a goal. You can't tell your defenders to keep a high line if they are given goals like this.

I think if England play at the top of their game they are a better side (than Holland). But they didn't do that and we did.

There are so many aspects at a football club which support the playing side and it is important to have someone to focus on these at the club. He is highly rated in his field and I am delighted that he has chosen to come to us. I am looking forward to working with him and have told him that it is a great time to be joining this club.
playing
Without playing really well, we were solid. We now have to live up to expectations,
arsenal half home ok played satisfied united
When we played United away we were satisfied with a draw. Arsenal at home we played very well in the first half and had a draw. It was OK but we still didn't get the result.
goals good scoring worse
We aren't scoring goals, and we don't look like scoring goals, which is even worse and is not good enough,

We know that so many other clubs would love to lure him from us so we are really pleased he has agreed a new deal.
