We can't worry about who we don't have. We have to go into these games with the guys we have.

It would be fantastic to have the two top-ranked players in the world playing out of the same club.

We need the whole squad, every player of the team, if we are to be successful.

I am nothing without the players.

I think I know now, each team is different, each player is different. I don't believe everybody has got to be the same.

As football gets more globalised, it's probably more important than ever to have one or two players in your team who have grown up in the same streets or been to the same schools as the hard-core fans.

If we kept all the players I liked personally, we'd be a lot worse team over the years.

You have to understand that in this league, we are all one play removed from being the starter or from being the backup, in any game.

I'm not a genius. I need other people to get the perfect information. When we have this, we will decide to sign or sell a player.

It's important for the team not to be relying on one player.
