"I'm very happy. It was a big game, obviously important to get two points on first game. It's a very important five days for all ten of us. I was happy with my performance and thought I played well," said Aspinall post match.

"All my pre-interviews were about me being eliminated and I wanted to go up there and put a good performance in and it wasn't my A game but it was a solid performance to start my Premier League campaign."

"I've not had the best of 12 months but by the same respect, I've not been playing absolutely rubbish. I keep getting all this stick that I'm playing bad and that it's guaranteed I'm getting eliminated from the Premier League."

"I'm playing well, I'm confident. All I can do is keep going there and doing my best. This Premier League is going to turn my season around. I'm going to do some damage this year."
