Pearce zum Spiel:
Zitat
Stuart Pearce has saluted the team spirit that saw City win take their first win of the season with a gritty rearguard action.
In response to being asked if he was pleased with the result after all the attention on the Ben Thatcher-Pedro Mendes incident since Wednesday, Pearce said:
"I'm more pleased for the players. To keep your focus after the way the spotlight has fallen on us this week has not been easy. Playing Arsenal with all the non-football related attention around has been difficult for them
"Credit to them, they kept their focus, they did to a man what we asked of them today. We rode our luck at times, individually some of their players are better than ours but unless you work as a collective you won't beat Arsenal, simple as that."
City have not conceded in the last two games and Pearce was full of praise for the way City absorbed huge pressure from Arsenal.
"Without a doubt that's what won us the game today. In the last two games I have asked Paul Dickov to do a defensive job, he's done that as well as his attacking role.
"If the players take on board what we prepare for them ahead of a match, and I think we are arguably one the best prepared teams in the league, if they do that we will have more wins like the one today.
"I've already got the buy-in for that from the likes of Dickov, and if some of the new players get that as well they will see the results at the end of it."

war wirklich unnötig! So in ein Kopfballduell zu gehen(den gegner nicht direkt mit dem ellenbogen, aber mit dem Unterarm) so wegzustoßen musste konsequenzen haben. Verdienter ausschluss.
