🗣️ Liam Rosenior ahead of @Newcastle_United [H] in the Premier League:
😊 On Reece James signing a new contract:
“I can’t stop smiling because we secured the best player in world football in his position.
“He had many, many opportunities to leave this magnificent club. The good thing is not just the size and the stature of the club. He’s come through from a very, very young age, with belief and confidence in what we’re doing here, where we want to go. We’ve had many conversations about it. For him to sign a deal and put his faith in us is a massive step.”
🏥 On team news:
“Jamie [Gittens] is back involved, which is great news.
“Estevao is still a little bit further away. We want to be careful with Estevao because of the nature of his hamstring injury.
“The last thing we want to do is rush him back and see the injury recurring. So, we will see what he’s like for Tuesday’s game against PSG.”
🧗♂️ On the focus always being on the next match:
“I don’t think too far ahead about the next game.
“At this stage of the season, it’s about the importance of each game, starting with the game tomorrow. My thoughts on PSG, and what that looks like on Tuesday, hasn’t even entered my head.”
🤔 On whether Filip Jorgensen is in a position mentally to start the game tomorrow, following his mistake against PSG:
“For sure. Everybody makes mistakes in life, in football. It’s how you recover, it’s how you respond to a setback. I’ve got no issues, no lack of trust with the two goalkeepers I have. I’m really, really looking forward to getting back on the pitch with what happened in the last 15 minutes on Wednesday.
“I think his [Jorgensen] performance for 75 minutes [against PSG] was magnificent. He makes a mistake and we get punished and we go on to lose a game in a manner that we definitely shouldn’t have lost.
“Rob Sanchez is one of the best goalkeepers in the league. There’s no question about those two players’ quality at this level. It’s more about my decision for each game and in which way I go in that position.”

Cole Palmer:
"It's good [that we've shown we can turn games around]. It's just probably better if we don't keep going behind in the first place! But to know that we can do it is good. Obviously the table is tight, so we need as many points as we can get."
Cole Palmer on Liam Rosenior:
"I feel like he's got really good man-to-man management. He makes time for everyone and it's a genuine connection. He wants to see how you are, he cares for you and wants you to do well. So he's a really good coach and manager..."
Cole Palmer on Joao Pedro:
"Me and him link up well, and he's been scoring a lot of goals lately, so long may it continue..."
