You know I don't think there will ever be a time when the English player is not respected, and feared, across the world of football. The English footballer is very brave and strong and committed and there is always enough high-class players in his team to cause concern in any opponent. It is a national characteristic.

It's all very simple: if you score one more than your opponent, you win.

Soccer is simple, but it is difficult to play simple.

Football is about making mistakes. Who makes the most, loses the game.

The difference between right and wrong is often not more than five metres.

Football is simple. You are in time or too late. When you are too late, you should start sooner.

There’s only one moment in which you can arrive in time. If you’re not there, you’re either too early or too late.
