You build a player like you build a house. You start with the foundations. The fundamentals.

Gerard is an open-minded and passionate man. I am the opposite: stubborn and stupid. But sometimes stupid behaviour makes you win.

I believe in work, in connections between the players, I think what makes football great is that it is a team sport. You can win in different ways, by being more of a team, or by having better individual players. It is the team ethic that interests me, always.

Some are wrong because they are not strong enough to fight temptation and some some are wrong because they do not know.

The biggest things in life have been achieved by people who, at the start, we would have judged crazy. And yet if they had not had these crazy ideas the world would have been more stupid.

I think we live in a very competitive world, and I love competition.

When you give success to stupid people, it makes them more stupid sometimes and not more intelligent.
