people footballer presses
People talk about footballers and they get a bad press when not all of them deserve it.
football three done
He could have done one of three things. He didn't do either.
football goal laughing
I'm going to miss his childlike laugh. I'll forget the goals but I'll never forget that laugh.
football jobs team
The reality, ... is that I need to win games of football. That's where the pressure and the sleepless nights come from. There's a fantasy pressure with this job but none of that matters. I need to make this team into a good unit, need to take it forward, give it a change of pace, need to get it younger and to use the experience of the lads we've got here. I need Lennon and Sutton and people like that to go and show how you handle being a Celtic player.
football thinking hands
Thomas Gravesen thinks he's broke his hand, but I told him that you play football with your feet and not your hand.
soccer football thinking
I think if you've managed Celtic or Rangers you can go on to be Prime Minister of Great Britain, it's that hard.
soccer football numbers
I tried to talk to the ref but it is easier to get to see the Pope. If I'm in London again and I get mugged I hope the same number of people turn up to protect me. There were six police, four stewards and even a UN peace observer out there.
soccer football asking
If you keep asking me questions, I will continue to find excuses.
soccer football winning
Good players win you games, good formations stop you losing them.
football people training
The reason I became a manager was to have full control over training. If you are a coach, you are bound by what the manager wants you to coach. The other reason is that I just like the company of football people.
football nice scotland
Do I miss football in Scotland? It keeps you really alive, that's for sure. Your heartbeat fluctuates. I'm flatlining at the moment which is actually quite nice but you need to go up and down to stay alive.
football long people
I've been in football a long time and people have problems through debt, drugs, drink and family.
