You have to work more than your adversary.
Lionel Messi is very much the team player, while Cristiano is very ego-driven.
I always stressed that I didn't have coaching experience, but that I did have a deadline: June 9.
The player can only compete with the best internationally when they've committed themselves to this goal. They have to be properly supported until that point.
I train for one-and-a-half hours every day in order to keep my energy level high.
I had to delegate authority to the people on my staff. That means you shave away the hierarchy.
