I am very happy and very proud of everybody. It was a long week, a difficult week with three away games. If you win games that gives players confidence, that gives players spirit what you need to win against Newcastle away.
In my opinion everybody was proud after the win last week against Manchester United because that’s history, that’s a great place to win. It was a long time ago. I think as a manager the win against Newcastle was better.
It was the third game this week, we have some injuries, but we keep that spirit and that belief. We didn’t start the game well. We lost some stupid balls in the beginning.
The 1-0 gave us a lot of confidence. The team was looking very comfortable. It was unlucky, the 1-1. We did it by ourselves. The second half was more difficult.
I think Newcastle was a little bit the dominant team at that point and we scored a great goal and after that we had good organisation and defended well.
Maybe one or two situations about handball, they told me, I don’t know. I didn’t see it so maybe yes, maybe no. I am very happy about the three points.
About the Squad
I think the difference is that we have young players, we have young, talented players. The team is playing out of a good organisation and for them that is a help.
If they get the opportunity, they play well, they have confidence and we have confidence in the young players. It’s not difficult then for them, because the team is confident and is playing out of a good organisation. Then it’s more easy to come into the team.
Of course, the win against Manchester United, the win against Ipswich gave the players confidence and they showed that.
We didn’t steal any points. What we get we deserved.
