"Great leaders understand the importance of assigning the right people to the right positions. If you put the wrong person in the wrong place, no matter how talented or earnest they are, they will never reach the peak of their potential. Their strengths will be underutilized and they may never measure up to your expectations. Reassign to get the best out of others and the situation."

"The only thing that we cannot control is our supporters."
Control

"Look at the way teams play against Arsenal. They don't believe they can win. They don't believe."
Competition

Success

Media

"Facing the press is not easy, but because you have to go, you have to try to take a lot of positive things for yourself from these face-to-face meetings."
Positive

"At the very least we should be given a bit of credit and a little bit of space, and maybe the media should think we could help them discover why English teams do not win European competitions."
Media

Time

Management

"In five years I have never had a match where my team has had less possession than the opponents."
