Sometimes you get submerged by emotion. I think it's very important to express it - which doesn't necessarily mean hitting someone.

Sometimes in life one experiences an emotion which is so strong that it is difficult to think, or to reason.

You can change your wife, your politics, your religion, but never, never can you change your favourite football team.

I stopped playing football because I'd done as much as I could. I needed something which was going to excite me as much as football had excited me.

Even as a footballer, I was always being creative.
