“The man has performed lower than two [full] video games for us. If he has gone 15 video games and not using a purpose then I can reply that query or 15 video games the place he hasn't contributed, however I simply suppose ‘take a breath, do a bit of yoga. Think concerning the world for a second and make an evaluation after that.'

“He's settled in really well. There's plenty more to come from him … because he got injured! He just needs to get some games under his belt. But what I've seen in the games he has played, he's going to be a real asset for us. I've got no doubt he'll be a great contributor.”

“It doesn't impact me or what we're going to achieve. We've just got to stay clear-eyed and focused on what we're trying to achieve here and the kind of football team we want to be.

“If that is swimming towards the tide generally, that is alright, nothing unsuitable with that — it makes you stronger.”

“I have not spoken to Brennan about it. The lads know what I'm about and my beliefs. I maintain telling them the identical factor, that an important folks in your life, they're those you have to fear about and their opinion, not anybody else's in phrases of validation. Just maintain having fun with it.”

“But at the same time Brennan has had a dream of being a professional footballer his whole life from a little kid and now he's living that dream.

“I'd hate to suppose he is not having fun with it. I maintain saying to him we're all fairly blessed to do what we do, even within the worst of occasions we're nonetheless fairly fortunate to have the ability to do what we needed to after we have been 10 years outdated, not many individuals can say that.”
