‘Look I have worked here for 19, 20 years and I’m always sitting here having to justify that I’m good enough to do the job.
‘I have no problem to cope with everything but I find that a bit boring in the end.
'I always have to convince you that I am good enough. I have worked for 35 years at the top level.’
‘I cannot influence the behaviour of the fans. How can I do that? You (the media) are the guys who speak to the fans.
'It’s not me. I am not on Twitter. I don’t invite anybody to go out to dinner and be nice with them.
‘I work and work and work and work. If it’s not good enough, someone will tell me one day. That’s all I can do. I do not worry about what you say about me or what fans say about me.
‘I try to do my job in a proper way and with full commitment.
'After that everybody has the right to have an opinion.
'You do not make a decision if I continue my job or not.
‘What I find just boring is always sitting here after 19 years to face, “Do you think you are good enough?”.
'I don’t know. I am humble enough every day to question myself, to accept my mistakes, and believe me I do that.
‘If I am not (good enough) somebody will tell me.
There is no coincidence that the people who own the club tell me to be here for 19 years. Do you think they are more stupid than you or me?’
