- We've got more and more foreign coaches, more and more foreign managers in the Premier League, eventually every club in the Premier League will probably have a foreign owner, and chances are every team will have a foreign manager with foreign back-room staff and they will bring in more and more foreign kids and foreign players. All their contacts will be abroad. They're not bothered about - let's be honest - are they that bothered about England really? They're bothered about their team in the Premier League. If you've come from Argentina or you've come from Italy, who are you cheering for? How worried are you about England doing well? You're worried about your own team and that's as far as it goes really.
- Over the years a lot of foreign players that I've managed, and I mean top players, have smoked. I'm not condoning it or encouraging it, but an awful lot of foreign players did smoke. Johan Cruyff, apparently when he was in his prime, was a big smoker. Certainly, the Croatian boys, Slaven Bilic and all the lads, at every opportunity they had a cigarette. It is not good for him [Jack Wilshere], that is for sure, and Arsene Wenger wasn't happy last time he was caught smoking in the early hours at a nightclub, but he is a young player.
