Ten Hag: Everton will be mad after points deduction

It's always about us. I can see the opposition, I can see they are mad. It's about us.If they are mad, that's their fuel and we have to match those standards. If we match the standards [then] we have a very good chance to win the game.
I don't know the details [about points deduction], I don't have an opinion. I can imagine Everton fans are very mad. We can do nothing about it.
