I just didn't want to walk away from football without knowing what it meant to be a manager, or even wondering what it was like to be sacked.

We have to be careful not to let our game not be the game we know it should be.

Marcel Desailly was pretty hard when I played against him in a Milan derby.

It's not just what you do on the pitch, it's what you do off the pitch.

Of course, I will keep myself fit, keep my boots clean and you never know.

I like to knuckle down and get on with my job. I'll make mistakes, I'm bound to, but I'll write them down and I'll learn from them.

I love tackling, it's better than sex!
