David O'Leary Quotations

I wish Graham the best of luck. There is absolutely no bitterness on my part.

I don't think any player's happy at being taken off. But he wasn't playing very well, simple as that.

Kevin is out on Tuesday and is a doubt for Chelsea,

Mark will be out for the rest of the season. That's what the surgeon has told us.

Why would I give him a free transfer now? What club would say: 'You can go now'? He's still got five months on his deal - that's still half a season. We haven't exactly got a great deal of numbers.

I was a young lad when I was growing up.

I like to breed players that attack people.

We gave poor goals away and there were a few reminders at half time, a few things to be said,

We went down there with a similar attitude in May and got beat 5-1 and we've got to be a lot better than that.

I told him what he did was no way to treat a Dubliner and his ex-boss. I told him he should have stayed on the bloody bench.

I am an attack-minded coach and like to take people on but circumstances dictated my plans because we had a few players injured. Within the budget we are trying to bring players in but we have to get on with it. That's life. The only worry I have is we will lose players through injury.
