Thanks very much. Thanks very much for doing this interview. How satisfied are you with the season and your own performances? I think the season has been in thirds really. We started off quite well and then we had a very disappointing period. As everyone knows about the cup and that and then we finished strong. So it's very hard to say how satisfied we are going on the last ten games. It's been great but overall obviously the cup run is still something that stings badly. The positivity of the last couple of months has been good. Me personally I think my form goes along a bit with what I explained. I started off alright. I had a sticky spell that I had to come through which I always believed that I would. It's not been ten years of highs for me. There's been times my debut was against Benfica. I started off with a low and then a week later it was Tottenham. That's how football goes. You have good periods and bad periods but you can't doubt what you do and what you believe in. You've got to keep coming in with the same attitude and the same work rate. Eventually always things will turn and thankfully for me the last couple of months along with the team it's been much better. Are you fully recovered now from your injury? Do you feel? I feel fine. I feel fully recovered physically as good as I've been before. All the stats show what the sports scientists nowadays we get all our stats and all that show that I'm covering more ground than I had done previous to my injury and my speeds are up there as well. Obviously it takes a while to come back to that match sharpness that just being confident with what you do on the ball and what not. I feel fully recovered and I'm looking forward to kicking on and seeing where I go from here. In terms of the season you just mentioned you're in third. But how important do you think that 17 day break was after Wofford? Cos we've seen to come back really strong and yourself in particular since that. Yeah we did and I don't think there's any magic formula to why it's paid off. The manager gave us a few days off. I think some lads needed to go away and do a bit of searching themselves and realise what's been going wrong. It was a tough period for fans and players alike. I know fans get very disappointed by how the team are doing and get really wound up by it. I'd like to think that we don't just finish a game and go home and make a cup of tea and forget about what's going on. It hurts for a few days and I think that's the way it should be. No, that 17 day break was massive and we came back and I think we were all under a bit of pressure at that period. We all had a lot of answers. We had to give a lot of answers for the way we've been playing. Thankfully we picked up that result against Cardiff and then I think going into that game at Goodison, the fans of Crowd probably could have been a bit frustrated with how things had been going, but I think they took a decision as well to try and make Goodison a fortress again. I think the fans and the players really came together from then on in and Goodison especially has been electric and it's been what I remember Goodison to be. I do know that the fans feed off what the players are doing on the pitch and they obviously need to see positive stuff on the pitch, but they've really came with us and I think that's been a massive turning point as well. It was since the dark, it wasn't the lad, the young lad, the originals who decided to try and do something with the atmosphere and that day it was unbelievable. Unsurprisingly the team responded to that and we've been fantastic to leave since the Liverpool game. What's it like as a player when, at Goodison in particular, the atmosphere is electric? Does it give you that extra base of energy? It definitely does, it really does. It sets you up. Obviously we've got to give them something to shout about initially, but it just gives you that extra half-yard and it might give you that extra bit of confidence to go in for a tackle because sometimes a tackle is all good as it needs to get the place going and it really does and you feel like you're going to win the game and not only for us, it puts the other team in the back foot. You know the fans are cheering whether it's a corner kick or a throw at the opposition after a chair and they're getting up behind it and it's only natural that that feeds on to the players and it's been a massive plus and it's something going forward we need to keep doing. Do you like the sharing? I do, I really do. I'm not sure what everyone's opinion on it is but it was before the Liverpool game I don't think any of us knew what was going to happen just went in the tunnel and then you hear it and I think it's been great and I think it's given the fans a lift and us going out in the pitch too, it's been great. Now that the season's ending, given that the way we're playing. Yeah definitely, I was just saying that last week you probably don't want the season to end and I think with Seventh was achievable again and that's the little things that we need to brush up on was going to Fulham and even going to Palace and maybe getting all three points in them games that's where going in the next season you can't really be slipping up so we've done well enough to get that back in our hands and now we let it slip again We need to brush up on them performances going forward but it's been good. The team spirit seems to be really good at the club now and there's real togetherness with the fans on it but in terms of the team spirit how do you get it to the level it's been at cos as a fan over the past few years I don't know what the dressing room's like but it hasn't seemed to be as good as it is now so what do you put that down to? The manager in Marcel when I've said I touched him this early in the season and I've seen the players whether it was by luck or whatever but they really signed good people which is important that's something when I've been here for so long it's something that's important to see when you see people coming to the club obviously we want good players and we want them to be match winners but sometimes when things aren't going well you need people to roll up their sleeves and be team players and even when things weren't going well this season and people were frustrated we still had a good changing room to the people we signed and I think that's why the team spirit has been so good just the togetherness of the group You're the last of David Moyes era that's playing regularly now and what's that like him? You've seen quite a few managers Yeah well David Moyes for such a long time and then the way football's going you're seeing managers come and go all the time but yeah it's making me feel old obviously being the last of the David Moyes signs but speaking on David Moyes I think a lot of the way he grounded me here he dealt with things he's had a massive impact on the rest of my career and how I see things standards are very important time keeping and all the rest and that's something that I've took forward in my career so I've a lot to thank him for so I'm glad that I got to be part of his management time and I've took that forward into all the managers I've had since A dwi'n fysg ei fysg gwaith yng Nghymru? Ped wonswng i'w asgyf i'w like game of thrones and the avengers and stuff like that no do you know what I tried to get in the game of thrones I always said I wouldn't because of dragons and all this nonsense she's my weak dragons I gave it a go to the disappointment of James McCarty because he says he's never watched it but he's the same don't watch it because fully dragons but I have to say most of the change room we're talking about it and say it's unbelievable so I think I might have to give it another go but at the minute it's not my cup of tea but to get away from football I've got two little girls that I go home and they entertain me or keep me busy for the day so as I've always said family then football that's my life summed up I'm fine Lee Troch and the avengers you're aware of the Paul Rudd story of wearing your truck in your village what was that like to hear? it was mad it was a crazy time in the town they were on a stag do I think in Kili Vegge one of the stag party in Y Medad told them to come down and I think he was wearing my shirt he can't be wearing that around here only one fella can wear that around but it was a great story I've seen it on YouTube not so long ago but that was great Mad story James thank you very much you're very welcome
