When I follow the finals of the European Cups, I look at all the aspects surrounding protocol, to get some ideas. I am interested in personalities, sponsors and the stands. But as soon as the whistle goes, it's all on the pitch.

You know, my role as Vice Chairman is a lot less tiring than playing matches every three days.

A football team represents a way of being, a culture.

I gave everything in my career so I have no regrets at all.

In any case, you can't turn back the clock.

A football match should be decided by an action of play. Not some contrived process whose end result is to mark a fine player such as Bossis, Baresi or Baggio for the rest of his career.

At Euro '92 itself, we bowed out to the eventual winners, Denmark, in our final group match.
