Dimi Payet reckons the win over Accrington has boosted the squad’s confidence and is delighted to have smashed home a wonderful free kick to win the game.Speaking on the official website he said: “It was a bit of a tricky match on Wednesday.
“They played well, were well-organised and they kept their shape.“We are in a period during which we need some more confidence and we couldn’t break them down. As the match went on we opened up the game more and more and that allowed us to play better and become more of a threat.“Slaven asked Manu and I to get on the ball, to use it well and to get the game going. We weren’t putting them under enough pressure in the first-half because we were a bit slow and needed to move the ball more quickly and to keep the ball better.
“During the first 45 minutes, we were going long with the ball too often, so Slaven looked to the two of us to help change that.”
“Sunday’s game against Southampton is of course one that we can win and we will be doing all that we can to do so and to take the victory at home,” he stated.
“We know that we are in need of points, but we are at home and I think that the last-minute victory against Accrington will have helped us mentally and will have boosted our confidence and I hope that we will see that on the pitch on Sunday.”
lol…I dare not imagine what will happen if we lose against Saints… Slav will be on a cross at nightfall and players will be hunted like animals… haha 😉
