football believe successful
The socialism I believe in isn't really politics. It is a way of living. It is humanity. I believe the only way to live and to be truly successful is by collective effort, with everyone working for each other, everyone helping each other, and everyone having a share of the rewards at the end of the day. That might be asking a lot, but it's the way I see football and the way I see life.
funny teamwork football
A football team is like a piano. You need eight men to carry it and three who can play the damn thing.
jobs men jail
If a man….who’s playing in front of the public, is being well paid, and he doesn’t dedicate himself to the job, I’d be hard on him. If I could I would put him in jail, out of the road of society. Because he’s a menace
football believe goal
The socialism I believe in is everybody working for the same goal and everybody having a share in the rewards. That’s how I see football, that’s how I see life.
football team two
In my time at Anfield we always said we had the best two teams on Merseyside - Liverpool and Liverpool reserves.

If a player isn't interfering with play or seeking to gain an advantage, then he should be!

It was the most difficult thing in the world, when I went to tell the chairman. It was like walking to the electric chair. That's the way it felt.

They say Football's a matter of life and death - but it's more important than that
