Timestamps
00:00 Intro
00:04 Created enough chances, weren't clinical enough
00:40 Our first night in Europe and we took three points with a clean sheet
00:58 The romanticism of the Champions League with Maya Le Tissier getting the goal
01:17 Le Tissier had a real calmness taking the penalty, she's a rock for us, fitting that she got the goal
01:45 Need 9-12 points from league phase but we're facing some incredible sides
02:09 Really important to start with a win and pick up points
02:24 Confidence is there, need to make sure it doesn't become arrogance
02:45 Overall they can be proud of themselves
03:07 Should Le Tissier start for England? I'm not here to answer that
03:30 Le Tissier will be an incredible stalwart for England when she gets her opportunity
03:50 Le Tissier practises penalties, she practises everything, real great captain for us
04:24 When she steps up for the penalty I'm confident, I'm not one of these managers that looks away
05:18 Players returning to fitness
05:38 Another challenge against Everton on Sunday, not worried about tiredness though
05:55 The challenge is navigating international windows
06:30 Being an underdog against Arsenal and Chelsea doesn't bother me, just try to win every game
07:21 Angry with our last ten minutes
07:38 This is a special group, we weren't happy even though we won, that's a good sign
