Quote

When you're dealing with someone who only has a pair of underpants on, if you take his underpants off, he has nothing left - he's naked. You're better off trying to find him a pair of trousers to complement him rather than change him.

I don't think it's because of my eyes, my beautiful eyes. (on Henry staying at Arsenal for the money)

In my job, you expect to suffer. That's why when I go to hell one day, it will be less painful for me than you, because I'm used to suffering.

A manager is a guide. He takes a group of people and says, 'With you I can make us a success I can show you the way.'

I am in a job where you always look in front of you. Unfortunately, the older you get, the less distance there is in front of you...
