I'd rather lose a game trying to win it, than lose it trying not to get beat

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

If you look at the world-class performers at the top of the game, their numbers are just exceptional and that is the level he is at.

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.

I'm blessed to be supported by some brilliant staff, who are all experts in their field and dedicated to what they do.

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.

When you've got the ball 65-70% of the time, it's a football death for the other team...It's death by football.
