I'm going with the understanding that I've done my duty.

Messi is an irreplaceable player, today if he was here we would have won 5-0 but he was not and we had to play another in his place.

I am not dealing with footballers, I am dealing with people. They have fears and worry about failing and making fools of themselves in front of 80,000 people. I have to make them see that without each other they are nothing.

There are teams that wait for you and teams that look for you: Espanyol look for you. I feel very close to their style of football.

I sit down and watch videos. I take notes. That's when that inspiration comes - the moment that makes sense of my profession. The instant I know, for sure, that I've got it. I know how to win. It's the moment that my job becomes truly meaningful.

There is no defence that can stop Messi. It is impossible.

I strive to live with passion and not to be desensitised to life. Things matter to me. You’ve got to live like that. Otherwise what’s the point? It’s not possible to please everyone and there is no point in trying to be what other people think you should be. For me, it’s important to be who I am, not just to be different but to be as authentic as I can be.
