Please don't call me arrogant, but I'm European champion and I think I'm a special one.

I don't say we are a defensive team. I say we are a strong team in defensive terms, but at the same time lacking sufficient fluidity in attack because that will take time to come.

You have to work hard AND well. There are a lot of people who work hard but not well.

You need diplomacy and not slogans. This is the place for wisdom, the place for seeking windows that will take you to the objective.

When people make my country look bad, I can't stand it.

There are good mothers and bad ones, but most of them are somewhere in-between.

The question is not whether the formula for success will work, but rather whether the person will work the formula.
