"I figure this group can do it since we have midfielders to play that way.

"The most significant thing is that luckily there have been no wounds. Everybody has played 45 minutes. There were snapshots of acceptable power. There are consistently things to enhance yet we're cheerful. We have been here for about fourteen days and we have two more to go.
