00:00 Nearly every Arsenal fan I know does want you to win tomorrow night. Have you ever been in this position before?
00:04 You've known this position before?
00:06 What's that?
00:07 Whereby your deadliest rivals want you to win because basically you'd hand them the title.
00:12 I don't know. I've never thought of sport in that way. I'm sure you know.
00:17 Like I said, there's a pretty simple
00:21 notion to this. There's a game of football tomorrow night.
00:25 What do you think is going to happen?
00:29 What do you think we are going to do as a team or any team on this planet?
00:33 Are we going to just try and win? It's a simple basic premise. Now how that makes people feel,
00:39 I'm not really fussed. I don't really care.
00:42 I'd hate to think that anyone thinks that we would go out there tomorrow night with anything other than
00:48 trying to measure ourselves against a top team and maybe win a game of football that's consequential.
00:57 How are we ever going to become a team that wins things if we don't win the big games?
01:00 If we shy away from it.
01:02 When does that become an issue, do you think, as a fan of another team that you start kind of feeling like it's hopeless?
01:07 Well, they haven't done it yet.
01:09 No, they haven't.
01:10 So that's an important point.
01:12 Sure, but if they do...
01:14 Yeah, but that's what I mean. They haven't done it yet.
01:16 But if you think they have,
01:17 then it does become an issue because all of us are just sort of putting down the red carpet for them.
01:22 I'm not going to do that.
