00:00Well first of all he hasn't had any influence on the squad selection. I've spoken to him by text but it's literally congratulations.
00:07I think he's highly respectful of the job that not only myself but the staff are doing so we've been left to it like we always have.
00:14I still see this as a massive privilege and the trust that the FA have shown in myself and the rest of the staff.
00:21The three camps that we've got, this is the final two games. We're really looking forward to a tough game in Greece
00:28and the Republic of Ireland at home so two games that we're looking forward to.
00:32My role will be back with the under-21s, a role that I've really, really been privileged to do.
00:39I think with that there's total support for the senior team. The job and the role is quite clear in terms of how to produce
00:47and develop players to play in the senior team. I think I'm probably in a better position now to do that because I've obviously seen
00:53the level that the seniors are operating at so that will be the case.
