Thomas Frank has a word with Sky Sports: “To get the win was very pleasing for me. I’ve been on to the players just to reinforce the message, that after a good run of games … then we are facing Bournemouth at home, a very, very tricky game … and these players have a top mentality. I just wanted to make sure we trained like beasts the whole week, with a high intensity, because we know in the Premier League, nothing is ever easy. But I’m pleased that we put the foundations in.
“I don’t think we played a top game. But I think in a season how many top games do we play, like perfect games, maybe four, five? And then, you know, 20, 25 are like in the middle and we just need to get over the line. I think it was probably was one of these in the middle. But I think it was a well deserved win. So very pleased.
“I think it’s important we have dreams and ambitions … I listened a little bit to the pre-game interview of Erik ten Hag speaking [before Manchester United’s derby win against City] and he said something clever about [Sir Alex] Ferguson that the season starts in April. If we think too far ahead, then we will have a problem … I hope the players and all of us celebrate this for 24 hours because I think it’s important to celebrate our wins. But after that we need to work very hard because we’re going to have a difficult game against Leeds.”
