Billy Gilmour: I enjoyed being back out there

(interviewer) Billy, well done.

Just the result, the
performance we were looking for.

Pretty much a perfect day.

Yeah, it's what we came
here to do, three points,

push into the top four.

And it's a good
performance from the boys.

(interviewer) Was the
timing of the goal

was really important today,
early on in the first half,

then early on in
the second half?

I think with--

when we were
playing we knew they

were going to place high,
not give us a lot of time

on the ball, and we've
seen that from where

we are trying to play out.

So it was difficult.
But the fast goal

was designed from Kai.

A lovely finish.

And that just put us straight
to keep going and wanting more.

(interviewer) You
look at it on paper

and think team coming here
in the relegation zone

might be straightforward,
but their away record's

been really good this season.

And certainly in the first
half they were a threat,

but we managed to nullify it.

Yeah, they were tough team.

And they worked hard.

They were pressing you tight and
never gave you a lot of time.

So you had to be sharp.

And I found out in
the first couple

of minutes I had to be
on my toes and be ready.

So it's been a long time
since I've played them.

So today, it was really good.

Three points and keep
pushing up the table.

(interviewer) How
do you feel now?

Presumably the adrenaline
still kicking in,

might be a bit tired tomorrow.

Yeah, adrenaline
is still kicking.

but knowing it's a
tough, tough match.

First match back in a long time.

So it was good to go there.

Enjoyed it.

(interviewer) And nice to be
alongside Mason as well real

kind of Cobham flavour
to the midfield today.

Yeah, so it's always--

it's always good
to play with Mason.

It's very easy to link
up well and rough out

with the boys in the team.

We thought we played
really well today.

Top performance.

We worked really hard with
not having a lot of rest.

(interviewer) Obviously
it's been mainly

FA Cup football for
you this season.

Do you notice a difference
about the style of the game

when you come into a
Premier League match?

I think with our
style it's always

the same where we want to
play fast through the lines,

counterattack, and scoring
goals in second play.

So definitely, and the
FA Cup is that team

but coming against
different teams,

you know if they're
playing against Chelsea,

they're going set
in different games.

But today, they
never, they really--

we're on the front foot and
want to give it a good battle.

(interviewer) And
because the manager's

got you so well
drilled, does that

make it easier to
come into the team

when you haven't
played for a while?

Because it feels like
everybody knows exactly what

to expected of them.

Yeah I would
say it's not easy,

but yeah, you know
what you're doing.

You're learning every day on the
pitch on the training ground.

It's getting drilled into
you, what the manager asks

and demands from you.

(interviewer) And finally,
obviously massive game

to come on Wednesday night.

You'll be looking forward
to as everybody is.

It's the stuff
dreams are made of,

isn't it, whether
you get on or not,

to be involved before you
turn 20 in a Champions League

semi-final, incredible.

Yes, an exciting week.

Madrid at home,
second leg, you know

we could have won
the game there,

but it's going to be
a tough game for us,

but we know we're ready
and we can't wait.
