Quotes by the The Special One.

QUOTE
And I think because of the passion of every English player and every English supporter, and every English journalist for the game, most of the game is played with passion, love for football and instinct, but in football you also have to think.

And when I go to the press conference after the game, the game has not finished yet.

Arsenal have won that advantage, nobody gave it to them. By playing fantastic football and by winning matches and by winning trophies, they won that respect that the opponent has for them.

At the very least we should be given a bit of credit and a little bit of space, and maybe the media should think we could help them discover why English teams do not win European competitions.

But I think it's more normal for my team to have no success than it is to win two consecutive European cups.

Especially when you play at home, you need a good atmosphere behind you.

Facing the press is not easy, but because you have to go, you have to try to take a lot of positive things for yourself from these face-to-face meetings.

For example, in my team I love to have Geremi on the bench because he's a low-profile player who is ready to help, ready to fight for the team, ready to do the job I want him to do.

I always feel that with a president, an owner - it depends on the structure of the club and the country - the players generally like to see him.

I don't say we are a defensive team. I say we are a strong team in defensive terms, but at the same time lacking sufficient fluidity in attack because that will take time to come.

I enjoy the work, I enjoy every minute of my professional life.

I feel I have a lot to learn from English football and I am completely open to good influences in my way of thinking football. But I also have things to give them.

I followed an Italian manager and it cannot be easy when you follow a manager who thinks very differently.

I was nine or 10 years old and my father was sacked on Christmas Day. He was a manager, the results had not been good, he lost a game on December 22 or 23. On Christmas Day, the telephone rang and he was sacked in the middle of our lunch.

In England, when people go to football they just go to think about football. Nothing else. They enjoy every second of the game.

In five years I have never had a match where my team has had less possession than the opponents.

In general terms we must think more about our football and not play by instinct.

In the same way that I had to follow an Italian manager here, I can imagine that it was not easy for an Italian manager to follow me at Porto.

Look at the way teams play against Arsenal. They don't believe they can win. They don't believe.

So I know all about the ups and downs of football, I know that one day I will be sacked.

So if one day the result becomes 3-3, for me it doesn't change my mind, because it's football, it's normal. What is not normal is that we haven't been scoring enough goals playing such good football as we've been playing in the last few weeks.

So when they have Mourinho and Benitez joining the Premiership they should say it's good for us, maybe these guys have something new to give.

The negative side of football. The negative side of our society. People sometimes go to football and bring to it the negative aspects of our society.

The only thing that we cannot control is our supporters.


and i keep the best for the last brows.gif
