Stephen Bunting on “Dream” Liverpool Premier League DARTS returns after a decade: “I want to win, don’t cry” | Arrows news

Stephen Poning admits the center in the arrows of the Premier League on Thursday night in Liverpool, he will be emotional after a contract of waiting, but he says: “I want to win, don’t cry.”

The 40 -year -old, who was the last player of the arrows in the Premier League in 2015, says his strong defeat against Phil Taylor on that occasion, in addition to his emotions earlier this season, taught him a lot before the “dream” returned.

“I am very excited, perhaps 10 years in the process of setting up. When Phil Taylor hit me here for those years, I always dreamed of returning,” Poning told the media on Wednesday.

“I played the Challenger game (opposite Rob Kroos in 2020), but I wanted to be part of the Premier League again. It was a lot of hard work, but I was really looked at him.

“Once the Premier League was announced, and I was in it, I was looking for the match immediately for Liverpool. This was the huge.

“From my experience 10 years ago, I took a lot.

“Play Phil Taylor in the biggest stage in my career was at the time in Liverpool a huge game for me, and I certainly suffered great pressure on myself. I remember that the night is very tense and the result was not going on my way.

“The first eight weeks of the Premier League have taught me that you cannot be satisfied. You cannot miss the marital. There is no advanced room, so I need to be in the best cases of my game regardless of where I play and just try to preserve feelings.

“The first four weeks of the Premier League, you can see an emotional range in walking.

“10 years ago, and I play in the Premier League, I was coming Birds are the word. It was not really a song for me anything. Now I am coming to TitaniumWithout anything to lose, lead -resistant, all lines. It is my favorite son’s song. It is a much more emotional song, and for this reason you see emotion. “

The start of a bus for the Premier League season witnessed the roots at the bottom of the table after eight nights, respectively, from the final quarter defeats.

However, see beyond the results, the average number of defeats has reached more than 100 out of five defeat, and since then he has gone to tasting the night victory in Berlin, while also advancing another final in Rotterdam last week, beating Michael van Gereen and Luk Litler on his way before the defeat of Chris Dobobi.

Regarding his mentality before Thursday, Punting says he is deliberately looking to get away from anxiety.

“I got rid of all the pressure on myself. I did it a few weeks ago, and I saw the offers I got during this season.

“I played the Premier League well to be honest, although the points do not show it. I think the offers are doing it. My goal is to make sure that I entered 100 percent in the Premier League next year, because I want to be chosen for that.

“I am in the 4th world at the present time, and I will take it in my step this year, getting used to this coordination again and playing against tens of thousands. I really enjoy it.

“If this happens in the rotation and start winning the nights and pushing myself to the qualifiers, everything is good and good and this is what I am trying to do, but I certainly do not put myself under any pressure.”

On the emotional side of things, Puntng says his focus on victory in favor of tears.

“I just try not to think about it. It’s happened. Hypnotherapy therapy has helped during the past few years in it.

“I am quieter and more assembled more than you were. The feelings you have seen have been the first four or five weeks in the Premier League again.

“It will be an emotional night, don’t make me wrong. I have friends and family that will be there, but I have to play that. I must make sure that I am attending and be the best I can be.

“I want to win at Liverpool, I don’t want to cry. Certainly, I will be very strong tomorrow. I will make sure that I do everything right.

“When I wake up at that stage, I will sing Titanium As high as possible to mobilize the Liverpool, and we hope they can get behind me all night. I have always dreamed of being in the first four places of PDC. I knew for a long time how good I can be. The will to win was not stronger.

“Every time I lose it, learn. This is important.”

“The home audience can go one of two ways for the Bong – we can see it crying before the arrows”

Talking about the latest episode of I love Sky Sports PodCast, “One of the two ways can go.” I have seen Nathan Asbinal in Manchester pick up this title, completely nourish the crowd and completely overwhelm it, “said Laura Turner.

“But then you hear the likes of Michael van Gereen and Jirwin Price, in front of their home crowds were very tense and went in the other direction for them.

“Poning mentioned that he was very emotional, especially at first and it took some time to settle. So he just needs to maintain these feelings under observation, because they may overcome him, especially in front of a crowd from Liverpool.”

Commentator Chris Murphy added Ali I love arrows: “Liverpool will be the Premier League Champions League, right? So imagine the fans there. Stephen Poning is a big fan, so I think it will be a special night and we will see her crying before the arrows.”
