It took me 35 years of being involved at a decent level of football to become manager at a great club like Celtic.

It's an incredible rise to stardom. At 17 you're more likely to get a call from Michael Jackson than England manager Sven Goran Eriksson.

If I was English I'd kill myself

I'm just going to crumble like a wreck. I'll go home, become an alcoholic and maybe! jump of a bridge.

I'm going to miss his childlike laugh. I'll forget the goals but I'll never forget that laugh.

I want players who are always striving to improve.

You people sometimes are like those serial killers you see in films who cut out the words 'I am going to get you' or 'your wife is next'.

People talk about how you make team spirit - is it golf days or going out drinking together? That doesn't count. When you drink, you just tell lies to each other anyway and talk rubbish.

Believe me, you need good people if you want to make good players.

If you keep asking me questions, I will continue to find excuses.

Good players win you games, good formations stop you losing them.

We are in the hands of men whose power and wealth have separated them from the reality of daily life and from the imagination. We are right to be afraid.

Like they say, the game is chess, it damn sure ain't checkers. Every move I make is so that I can conquer and destroy.

Life is a journey

I fell in love at 14 and I remember that mad, tense feeling and all the mad things you do for the person - all those extremes and all the stuff you don't mind putting up with.

Everyone needs a chance to evolve.

The myth about me as a footballer has grown: I am now the lost Maradona of Norway.

Drinking Garri doesnt mean you're poor, but allowing the garri to swell-up before drinking is Poverty

All of us are slaves to the prejudices of our own dimension.

We secure our friends not by accepting favours but by doing them.

I think fear is unavoidable and that, when recognized and embraced, its something that can work for you - especially in the audition room.
