It is a game before a product, a sport before a market, a show before a business.

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

Footballing qualities can be developed, but Stoichkov is a player with character and inborn talent. I've seen him produce fantastic plays even from impossible situations... I couldn't believe it, when I heard that I used to be his idol.

For me, football is just a game, not a drama.

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

Whenever I was on the pitch, I always tried to win.

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.
