A piece of it is about the psychology as well. How we stay in games, how we react to certain moments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI looked at a really inspirational video of Roger Federer. What he did as a tennis player to go from point to point. That&#8217;s all we&#8217;re looking at and we do that together as a group.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis week, everything has been very honest and transparent. We spent a lot of time together. What I see and what I take from it is that everyone wants the same thing, everyone wants Arsenal to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arsenal.com\/news\/every-word-renees-pre-brighton-presser-2?utm_source=arsenaldotcom&amp;utm_medium=embedded-article&amp;utm_campaign=news\" class=\"article-card__wrapper\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>\n         Read more                              Every word of Ren\u00e9e\u2019s pre-Brighton presser <\/p>\n<p>    <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Asked to elaborate on that moment of inspiration, Ren\u00e9e continued: \u201cIt&#8217;s really clear in my head, that&#8217;s why I brought it up. We had a look today.\u00a0He talks about the percentage of games he&#8217;s won in his career\u00a0and the percentage of points he&#8217;s won in his career.\u00a0That&#8217;s really interesting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe talks about his mindset.\u00a0The point he&#8217;s playing for at the moment is the most important point.\u00a0But then that&#8217;s done. When that point is over, he goes on to the next one.\u00a0I think he won, as he says himself, 54% of his points.\u00a0He&#8217;s been one of the best two times at tennis. That says something about how he comes back after points\u00a0and how he was really good at being good in the most important moments,\u00a0the points that count.\u00a0That was good inspiration.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI also do want to put things into perspective and look at wider things\u00a0and get inspiration from other athletes and sports teams. Like I just mentioned earlier, all athletes and teams go through different times.\u00a0It&#8217;s about how you come back.\u00a0That&#8217;s why this was brought up because we spoke about Roger Federer this morning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2025 The Arsenal Football Club Limited.
