"Being in touch with the problems in the world or our lives is important, but even more important is to focus the brain on what we can do about them."

Previous Quote

I didn't listen to half of the criticism I received. I just didn't let it enter my brain. It affects people around me, but it was my job to see through that. When you are in charge of a top club, where expectations are high you have to deal with that.
