soccer football dog
Over analyse, paralyse, you mustn't over analyse... Do you wake up at four in the morning and wonder who should be playing left-back? Four? I would love to sleep that long. If you want a really long career you have to find a way of switching off. I do it when I'm out walking my dog, Alex Ferguson got into horses, others get into wine. Some players like going shopping, which is not my scene. A lot of them turn to golf. I tried it, didn't like it. I have to walk. If I couldn't I'd be in a padded cell by now.
soccer football winning
The last time I was charged by the FA they had a murder lawyer in against me, so it's going to be a hard case to win.
soccer fighting ends
United could soon overtake Arsenal as the chief threat to Chelsea, and defiant Keane vowed: We will keep fighting to the end. We are Manchester United, that is what we do.
soccer football play
If you love Senegal so much, why don't you play for them?
soccer football jobs
Yorkie has officially retired about 5 times... The man's a clown... People are going on about the game and agents and directors of football and managers losing their jobs, but we should be worried about people like him... Clowns. That's the last time I'm going to say clown... If he's the vice-president of FIFA, God help us all.
soccer football player
I just hope he doesn't frighten the players 'cos they're frigtened enough right now.
soccer football nice
People say I'm hard, I'm Mr Angry. I'm this, I'm that. I just want to win matches. There's no point going out there and being Mr Nice Guy. We get 55,000 at Old Trafford and I don't think they want fellas going out there and thinking: Ah, if we lose, so what?
soccer football men
There has been lots of things said about me over the years. I am happy to comment on people's opinion in football I respect, but Tony Cascarino is a man I certainly do not respect, for a lot of reasons, and if I told you, you would be shocked. So the day I worry about Tony Cascarino will be a very sad day of my life.
soccer football children
I don't believe skill was, or ever will be, the result of coaches. It is a result of a love affair between the child and the ball.
continue domestic football playing retire time whatever
Much as I would like to continue playing for my country, I feel the time has come to retire from international football and concentrate on domestic football for whatever is the remainder of my career.
chased deserves draw gary line maybe queue tunnel
Maybe Gary deserves to be chased up a tunnel every now and then - there would be a queue for him, probably. But you have to draw a line eventually.
asked driver early five four judge judgments middle park played statements taxi teams three
A taxi driver asked me about that the other day. It's too early to judge the players. I've played four or five games, probably three of them in the middle of the park which is my position, so I think it's too early for me to be to making judgments and statements about other teams and players.
confident cup early
It's too early to know if he'd make it for any play-off or not. But he's told me he is still confident that we can make it to the World Cup finals.
bringing january opposite people players putting rid talk
There is talk about putting this right in January and bringing players in. We should be doing the opposite ? we should be getting rid of people in January.
