I don’t see coach job stressful, I really don’t. Of course, there is pressure and expectation, but I wouldn’t necessarily equate that with stress.

Status does not matter. It is what you are like as a player. It doesn’t matter how much money you have come for. That doesn’t matter to me. I will play a 17-year-old if he fights and he has quality. It is quite easy.

Football Successful Trying
I must have just dreamed that about Liverpool playing 3-4-3. What do people think that was, a bit of luck? A British coach playing 3-4-3? A foreign coach doing that would be a tactical genius.

I have a senior staff meeting every day, with key personnel who interface with the players – coaches, the medical staff, our analyst department. This is a useful exercise as it means we are all across what is happening and they are aware of my expectations.
