00:00 It's a bit surreal, but getting back into work this morning and being at a place I love,

00:05 a special place for me, seeing old faces, seeing new faces as well,

00:10 and I'm delighted to get back into the game.

00:13 It's a huge challenge, so how do you attack that challenge

00:16 and how do you approach this game with Liverpool?

00:20 Well, with our own personality and characteristics,

00:22 we feel, through myself and my coaching and managerial career

00:26 and the guys that we've brought in, the qualities that we can bring in,

00:30 hopefully, to improve the situation that we're in.

00:33 It's not a great situation, everybody knows that.

00:35 It is the best league in the world, everybody knows that,

00:37 and we're playing Liverpool first game up, so thanks very much for the fixture list.

00:41 But, listen, 30,000-odd in Bramall Lane on a Wednesday night under the lights

00:46 against arguably one of the best teams in Europe is a tough start,

00:50 but one that we can go and attack and have a right go,

00:52 and I think that's going to be the attitude from me and the players,

00:57 to reignite the supporters, because there has been a little bit of a disconnect,

01:01 especially over the last two games.

01:03 A lot of good things have happened over the last two years here at this football club,

01:06 getting back into the Premier League,

01:08 and we're here for a reason and we've got to enjoy that challenge,

01:12 and that's my message to the players,

01:14 and the players have got to set the ball rolling to connect with those supporters,

01:20 because, as we all know, under the lights at Bramall Lane,

01:24 it's a fabulous place to go and play football, and nothing to lose.
