About this game:

"The past two games have been very special. For Newcastle, we have scars and lessons from the past, and this time we have rewrite history. For West Ham United, we lost to them at home for the first two seasons, and this time I told the players that this is a huge opportunity. The start of the season was a very difficult schedule and had serious injuries. Even so, the team still maintained a high level of performance. Today we won with absolute dominance and we won the opponent without any loss. So I am very happy to be in this state of being international. Match day. "

About the role of Calafiori:

"He brought a strong vitality to the team. Although it is a bit confusing at times, this vitality and the space and situations he can create are very difficult to defend against against the opponent. Especially when facing a team with a very tight organization, you have to disrupt their structure to create opportunities, and we have done a very good job in this regard today."

Regarding the reason why Rice was replaced:

"He doesn't feel good, take the initiative to It's rare to ask for a substitution. He has a pain in his back and can't stick to it. We need to check the specific situation, because it's very unusual for Rice. "

Regarding the quality of the bench:

Regarding Suvimenti's performance after the bench:

"In the connection and counterattack of the midfield, his performance Especially outstanding. We created more space and connections through him on the court. He made it easier for us to control the rhythm of the game and win control of key areas, which is why I let him play."

Without them, this job cannot be completed and it is even less likely to be enjoyed. I have the best people around the world. I also want to thank the players and staff for always supporting me, making me a better coach, inspiring me, and allowing me to enjoy it together in a good time. I want to celebrate with a victory, and now I have done it. Next is international match day, and we need to make good use of this time, because the next stage will be very difficult again."

About the next schedule challenge:

"We know those games will be very difficult. We have experienced a series of high-intensity schedules, with the opponents all top teams, and some have to play away, plus several main players were injured. We had to do it Many adjustments have been made, and many players have also returned from injuries and surgery. Although the challenges are great, the team's performance and results are very convincing, which is a good opportunity to continue moving forward. "

Regarding the importance of lineup rotation:

" is crucial. We play a game every three days, with our strength and the requirements of our opponents, it is impossible to always use the same lineup. Players who come on the bench must improve the rhythm and intensity of the team and help us win. We have talked about this repeatedly, especially in recent times, the rotation has been very positive."
