That won&#8217;t leave me, that hurt will stay with me for a long time. What we had to do today was come out and put in a big performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;It was important we went out and showed that belief and trust in each other. The players showed tremendous resolve and spirit &#8211; I will argue with anybody that we deserved to win today. We showed real spirit and real strength of character to win a football match.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The former Burnley manager accepted before kick-off that their opponents would be the dominant force throughout the game, but knew that, if his team stuck to their match plan, they could take all three points.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>He added: &#8220;We had to accept that Arsenal would have the majority of possession but I always thought we could score. I showed that by pushing Elmander up front when Sturridge came off &#8211; I played two up top because I thought we could score.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;Football is never going to be nice and enjoyable every week. It&#8217;s the disappointments that drive me on and make me want to be better.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Coyle also expressed his joy in seeing Cohen score the winning goal after such a difficult time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;It was a very emotional winner for Tamir,&#8221; he continued. It was fitting that he got the winner after losing his dad.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;He&#8217;s had such a difficult year. Avi spent a week with us at the training ground a week before passing away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;You could tell Tamir&#8217;s team-mates got to know Avi as well because he was such a lovely man.
