""I feel like I can finally breathe," Gibbs-White told TNT Sports. "It's been a difficult couple of months here with all the change that's happened, the bad performances, so we're happy to get our first win out of (10) games. "The gaffer came in and said 'last season, you (the team) had an identity - you had a real structure to how you wanted to play'. And he wants to bring that in, and he wants to build on top of that, and I think we showed that tonight.""
""Yeah, hopefully. But it's only been one game, we've only had a few training sessions. "But definitely, you can feel the morale within the stadium, you can feel the morale within the group at the minute - it feels a lot higher, it feels a lot more energetic, it feels a lot more positive. "And that's the way it needs to be, and it needs to stay like that for us to continue and try and push forward. So, that's credit to the manager that's come in, Sean, he's installed that into us. We've got to keep going and keep maintaining that positive energy.""

Gibbs-White said he could "finally breathe" after difficult months of change and poor performances, and he credited Dyche for lifting morale and energy in the squad and stadium. The win provides a confidence boost as the team seeks to build momentum.
