It was my proudest moment as a manager when England drew 0-0 with Italy in Rome to qualify for the World Cup finals. Fifteen years later, the stakes are equally high for both countries as they go head-to-head for a semi-final place at the European Championship.

No manager in the world gets good results all the time and you know there's people always ready to have a snipe. In fact I'm my own biggest critic, I really am. Because my own standards are so high, I criticise myself behind the scenes more than perhaps I should, according to people who know me well.

You can never compare two players that are different, they're never going to be the same.

If people feel 4-4-2 is the way forward in international football, they'll have to wait until I'm out of a job.

There's not much who would have hit him [Fabio Capello] in the eye and made him put his hat on.

Your chest is different to your head.

You have to look at things that happened in your life and ask why. It comes around.
