"I’m out of contract so there’s no pressure on me. To perform or anything, like that but it’s in the back of my head. And you think! About your contract?"

 

Reminds me of. . . What is this thing called love?

I suspect it's a transcription issue and Kent is praising the club's approach. 

Try adding an ellipsis.

I’m out of contract so . . . there’s no pressure on me to perform or anything like that, but it’s in the back of my head and you think about your contract"

It also makes more sense if what he said was in answer to a question such as: "You're out of contract at the end of the year - does that put you under extra pressure to do well?" Or "What are your aims for this season, considering you're out of contract when it finishes?"

And he's just trying to express that his motivation to do well and to stay a Demon comes from inside, not because of the contract (or any other external pressure), although the contract is inevitably there in the back of his mind, but it's not a major issue.

Perhaps there's a subtext that he's also trying to convey, of not being the sort of player who puts in extra effort in the last year of his contract, and then hits the cruise button when he's been rewarded. 

You made the same point, Sku, while using a whole lot less words ... and a punctuation lesson!

Grammar: The difference between knowing your sh!t and knowing you're sh!t

Does anyone else find trade talk in May (especially when the team is playing pretty well) really boring?

Gone.

So now you know.

I don't think there will be any issues at all with Kent staying on, i just don't think he's a very good public speaker.
