I accept criticism towards me. It's not an issue.\n\n\"I took my decision because I spoke with my staff. I also made clear what I did want to change. We should have pressed more, high on the pitch, and we were not able to do that. We want to convey this message to the players.\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter**",
