Football is made up of all kinds of conflict. In a dressing room, between players, between us and the manager, between us and loads of people who don't seem to matter. It's constant and harsh sometimes.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You have different sorts of people in life, so why should it be any different in football?
People get hurt all the time in the game of football, it's part of what we do.
I deal with football from a realistic, logical point of view.
Football has an important role to play in society. Players should have a sense of social responsibility, have a moral dimension to them which shows up in good conduct.
Football is big business - you can't get away from it. But you have to separate that side from the playing.
Many people agree with me that many things are not clear in football these days and it is not something people who watch football deserve. The situation will be the same while football is run by people who do not understand football.
Football is a violent game. We are violent men.
Football is a bit like chess: it's not just the piece being moved that matters; it's also the effect that move has on all the other pieces.
For me, football is just a game, not a drama.
Football fans share a universal language that cuts across many cultures and many personality types. A serious football fan is never alone. We are legion, and football is often the only thing we have in common.
