PLEASING PERFORMANCE
"When it goes to 10 men, it's always a tricky kind of situation really. I thought it was quite an open game in the first half, at times. We looked dangerous, right from the start of the game, which was really pleasing again. We had a few issues and I thought Tottenham played really good football in the first half and we had to solve a few things. Then going a goal up, against 10 men in the second half, we managed it really well. We were largely in control, always wanting a second goal to come along and, when it did, it put us in a really good position. It was nice to get players on the pitch, Tyler [Fletcher] coming on for his first game. All in all, it was a really positive day."
I'M STILL CALM
"I feel good. I feel pretty calm in some ways as well. I think we're in a good spot. It's nice to see, coming into the stadium and feeling the atmosphere from the supporters and the excitement, sending a lot of people home happy. I know how important that is. At the end, it's what we're here for. It gives us a good feeling of wanting more really, in terms of the football side of it. Some good performances and some really good results, we're just moving on to the next one and not settling for what we've got. Not taking things for granted is something we speak about a lot and the boys have been really good for that, so far."
BRYAN'S WAS A BIG GOAL
"It was a big goal, against 10 men it can work in so many different ways. It's more mind games than anything, you've almost got to think about we're playing with 10 men as anything. Subconsciously, it's a bit of a deep breath so the goal was a big one, to get in front. We managed particularly well in the second half and didn't give them a lot of breaks or transitions. It's not easy to do so credit to the lads."
THE FIXTURE SCHEDULE
"It kind of works both ways sometimes. We play Tuesday and then we've got a bit of a gap coming to Everton. We've got to manage the rhythm of the games, as much as anything. Sometimes, the rhythm can help and, sometimes, it gets a bit heavy and it can hinder you. So I think we've just got to take what's in front of us. It's another big game on Tuesday night, at West Ham, then we'll regroup, rest, recover and sharpen up for the one after that."
ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT YOUR FUTURE?
"Nah, it's not for now. I think to get excited and carried away, as a supporter, is where you should be. It's why you come to support us, to dream and get carried away, hopefully leaving in good spirits and looking forward to coming back. It's our job to provide that and, to be in a position to do that in the last few weeks, has been great. We've got to keep doing that."
