My biggest mentor is myself because I've had to study, so that's been my biggest influence.

I believe a young player will run through a barbed wire fence for you. An older player looks for a hole in the fence, he’ll try and get his way through it some way, but the young player will fight for you.

Of course, as manager, the selection of the team is very much one of the biggest responsibilities I personally take, but I come to that decision thanks to advice and support of the people around me.

The best players want to play in the best competition.

I think my history as a coach shows I like players who are gifted technically and have courage when it comes to being in possession of a football. That is a key quality for me.

Whilst I'm here, I'll always do the best I can.

Even more important than statistics is then having the staff that can take the data and ensure it's presented in a way that improves individuals and teams.
