His words, “It’s incredibly important,”
“I do think it’s really important – for the progress of the team, for our development.

“I think before I joined, in my decision I set my goals, and these things were part of my goals – winning trophies was part of my decision.
“You take every opportunity you have to win a trophy. That is always the goal, and winning makes it a little bit easier the next time.
