The best players want to play in the best competition.

I meet regularly with my staff to ensure they are aware of what I want, but also to make sure they have the chance to influence the process and use all of their knowledge to help prepare the group.

I've always been one to arrive early for work; preparation is a big part of how I work, and I like to be in my office going through plans for the upcoming training sessions or meetings I have.

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.

It's not always plain sailing... especially when you're flying!

I enjoy my work. The reason I worked so hard all my life is because I want to be making big decisions and managing at the very highest level.

The responsibility will always go with the manager - you put out the team.
