After completing our first league double over the smoggies in over 60 years, Regis Le Bris praised our character for coming out with the win. And, despite a stellar performance from Enzo Le Fee, the gaffer expects more...
STAYED IN THE GAME
"I think that Middlesbrough started very well, they played really good football. We expected this but when you are on the pitch, you have to manage the situation. They played very well in the first half and we conceded many situations, I think we were lucky not to concede a second goal. We stayed in the game but we were a little bit impatient, we knew they were good in possession with the ability to pin the central corridor and play out wide, in behind, through. Maybe we lost our patience in this period and were sloppy on the ball. Progressively, we got back into the game but not enough for this contest, this team."
CHARACTER
"During half time we spoke about the character we needed, that we needed more passion and more confidence. The second half was very good, I think. It was an intense game against a strong game, away from home. We had to play with passion to find that extra percent. We knew that this would make the difference."
ENZO...
"Enzo was very important, you need good players on the game. He's well connected with his team mates, so now we can find a greater relationship with Dennis, Jobe, Wilson... I think the extra week of training has been very beneficial for him. You can see that he is more connected."
MORE TO COME FROM LE FEE
"I expect more from him still, because he is so talented. He could play at the best level, Premier League or something else. There is more to come, I'm sure. He is a good team mate, very connected with the collective way of playing. He can help younger players around him to find the right tempo, the right rhythm."
