When you arrive in England for football it's a paradise.
Football lost its excitement for me.
School is not easy for kids and football wasn't easy for me... but if it's something you truly believe in, it's something you've got to fight for and be willing to do what you need to do make it work.
Being a coach means giving your job 200% all the time and you're family is left on the side so I don't want to risk my family anymore just because I love football.

I love football, but I'm sick of the World Cup. I don't even care about England.
For the longest time, I thought I was a boy. I really did. I wore boys' clothes, played tag football.
I've gotten to watch a lot of football games. Growing up, watching sports, watching people compete, whether it's my brothers or teammates. I grew up observing and taking it all in. It's kind of my attitude.
Tee Vee football: one team wins, one team loses -- they tie -- who cares? And why?

When you care about a guy beyond just the field, that's when the chemistry becomes really special.
You know it's only 50 miles but I've relished every moment of the longer route to get here. Thanks for letting me reflect on those great moments. Thank you.
And if I want to get involved in choosing sides, I usually pick hockey or football.
Now that it looks like things are headed on the right path, I'm ready to go back and play football.
The whole experience...I have been just stunned. It has helped so much. I can't believe that in this sport that has no so-called heart, it's really so full of heart. That's the truth; Football is full of heart.
Peter Crouch, the Marmite of football.
Detroit's so bad this year they might lose their bye week.
That kind of ball is meat and two drink for the Palace defence.
Somebody told me when Abe Lincoln was a young man, studying by firelight, he said, "I will work hard. I will prepare myself. And my time will come." And you know, that's exactly what I said about myself and football - What do you think? Were Abe and I both just lucky ducks?
I don't enjoy getting knocked about on a football field for other people's amusement. I enjoy it if I'm being paid a lot for it.
I've enjoyed my time in the game, whether it be managing Luton in the top flight, taking Spurs to Wembley or, as director of football, pinpointing players such as Jermain Defoe, Paul Robinson and Robbie Keane with real sell-on value.
I found the support inside Old Trafford has been terrific and, if there was ever a show of support for the football club and team, it was in this game. Inside Old Trafford it was terrific, it really was.
