Crystal Palace striker Nketia played a countdown against Liverpool, helping the team win the opponent 2-1. Nketia was interviewed after the game and revealed that she received a thank-you text message from her former club Arsenal and talked about topics such as the team's coach, captain and European goals.
After defeating Liverpool, have you received news from Arsenal?
To be honest, I did receive some text messages expressing my gratitude. Yes, there are several (Arsenal) staff who have sent me messages, but I am now totally focused on life here and hope to do everything I can to do to the best of my ability to help the team. (Nketia smiled and clarified that none of these information was from Arteta)
What has coach Glasner brought to the team?
He is awesome. I think he has built a very good team and has very good cohesion in the team. I feel like we are all fighting for each other and want to keep improving and achieve good results. This is a very good environment and an ideal place for young players to improve and develop. This is exactly what you want, train hard every day and achieve great goals together.
Are you confident that you can beat Liverpool before the game?
We believe that it can cause trouble for them. We proved in the Community Shield game that we have the opportunity and we have the ability to create opportunities against any opponent. So we got into this game with confidence, we knew it would be tough, but I think we showed what we had and that was a very strong performance.
How do you evaluate the performance and role of captain Mark Gey?
He is top-notch. I think Guy's strength on the court has said it all, but off the court, he is also crucial to the team. He is a very good captain, a very good leader. We are glad he was here and contributed to the team. We have no doubt about Mark's concentration or determination, which he has proved throughout his career. We are so happy to have him and hope he will continue to help us this season. What are the goals of the team for this season's European game?
The goal of every event we participate in is to strive to win the championship. Obviously, this is a very good opportunity for us, this is the first time the team has participated in the European War, and it will be wonderful to have a European War night here. We hope to continue to work hard and make continuous progress, and hope to bring another trophy to the fans. This is what they deserve.
