Quotes

  • You Pasman, you have it inside, too.
  • Even now as a manager, when I suffer a loss it still feels like a first loss, the first I suffered as a player. And when I win, it is like my first win, too. This is me, this is my personality, it is who I am and will always be.
  • There is no secret here. I will give my all, as I always have. This way I prove to the people who hired me, and those who support me, how much it means.
  • The unconventional and uninhibited way of living was a part of my life. I won't be like that now.
