We’ve got two other teams (Leicester and Ipswich Town) who can get points. This is the Premier League, a tough league. “
We’ve got a good squad with แทงบอล UFABET ราคาดีที่สุด ไม่มีขั้นต่ำ good players, a consistent team. We just need to be a little bit calmer to play better. There were moments when we controlled the tempo of the game with the ball. It’s not easy because we are fighting for relegation. “
At this moment in the season we want to play good football. We had moments in the game where we played well and we had [two] chances to score a third. If we could do that, the game in the last 10 minutes will be different. “

On Jorgen Strand Larsen. “The last game was not his standard because he had an arm injury two days before the game. “
