"We are all far from home and in theory supporting Spain. "I agree that we have made mistakes in defence. I know we're not playing our best, but let's win - we're all together."What needs to be improved? Everything. But that starts with trust. You have to have your own trust and trust in your team-mates."</blockquote>
