“I’m fatalist about the world of football, but not about life. Life is wonderful. Football is what it is.
I like to say that people who go to the stadium are lucky to only come and see a show and not know what’s going on behind the scenes. Honestly, if I didn’t have this passion, the football world would have disgusted me a long time ago.
That’s the world we live in, and we can’t change it. I will never advise a child of mine to step into the football world.”
