If I can be a role model, or if I can maybe make another manager play a young player coming through rather than buy a player, that's incredible.

You need a manager that believes in you and shows that he believes in you by playing you.

It's not easy when you have a new manager because you have to try and adapt yourself to him, the team, training sessions, and the game.

Being a part of the National Football League for so long, I've come across so many trainers and equipment managers who've allowed me to be who I am today.

I don't view myself as a team manager, but a team captain. I'm part of the team, but everybody else as well.

I could never be a manager. All I have is natural ability.

I want to play every game, as does every player. But sometimes, you just have to listen to the manager.

I really just want to go to a team that really wants me and wants to use me the right way and make me successful.

All the managers in the world, it doesn't matter how good you are, if your players don't understand what you are looking for or what you want, it makes no sense.
