00:00It's an exciting time. It's the first building block in a long year of three months ahead before America and we can be happy with how we started.
00:13He's been amazing on the training pitch, how he puts his arm around you, just makes you feel loved and welcome.
00:19And as a player, I think that's such a special thing to feel loved by your manager.
00:23It gives you the confidence to go out there and really, really perform.
00:26Honestly, the lads are buzzing off him and the way training's been, it's been really high level.
00:30The energy's been really high and that comes from him because of how he is as a character, his charisma.
00:35He's a likeable guy. He knows how to deal with big players. He's been in finals, won big trophies and I think that's what England need.
00:43We've got some great players and you need a manager that's been through that sort of deep end of the stages of tournaments when they can remain calm.
00:50I think the boys have enjoyed working under him. We made a short spell with Halter Gamma and we got off to a good start. We have two wins.
01:00He's always one of the players. He's one of the lads, I guess, when he's amongst us, which is good.
01:04But when it's time to work, it's time to work. Very intense. You're always learning with him, which is really good.
