How pleasing was that performance?
Very. It is the last game before two big finals so I decided to rotate players, give some a rest. But I was really impressed with the win and the way we played. You couldn't tell we'd made so many changes, especially in the second half with so many youngsters on the pitch, they performed really well and we dominated against a good side. So I'm really proud of my players, especially the youngsters!
They showed plenty of confidence didn't they?
We need that! I told them before the game, we have some changes, plenty of youngsters, but once we pull on the shirt we are expected to win the game and that is what i demanded. They executed that really well.

And some fantastic goals?
We know the qualities of Alex Lowry in one-v-ones, he is dangerous. Cole McKinnon had a great year with the B team and he started and finished the attack for his goal, it is a special moment for him to score on his debut, not many players can say that.
What is your message to the travelling Seville support?
It's going to be amazing and a fantastic occasion. We will bring as many supporters as we can. We have to enjoy the occasion, represent the club well and have the confidence to win the cup and make it a memorable night in Seville.
