Now to go back, and we talked about it on another channel that we work on, there is a difference between a manager and a coach.

And we've seen the situation with Xabi Alonso.

Unfortunately for him, he's been in a situation where apparently he said that he was coaching too much, that he lost the dressing room, which at times in situations when you are at a club with big character, at times you need to manage a bit more than coach.

If you understand what I mean, you can't go and speak to guys the same way that you were speaking to guys in bracket at a lesser club with in bracket, again, lesser players that are a bit, you know, you don't speak to Cristiano Ronaldo the same way you would speak to a youngster.

A youngster, you can say to him in the last 10 minutes, can you play right back for me?

Because that's how it is.

I'm the boss.

you don't ask that to Cristiano Ronaldo.

Or if he doesn't want to wake up in the morning to go for breakfast because that's what you do as a coach.

This is when we're going to do the tactic, when we walk, we're going to put the shape of the team in whatever walk we do in the park on the side of the hotel.

And Cristiano Ronaldo will look at you or whoever that's going to be big in that team.

At that moment, you need to manage the egos of the players.

But again, my first thing, if we were here, as this is false, but if we were here talking, I would have had, first and foremost, an internal discussion of what we want to be.

And I know I'm going back to the same thing, that we'll have a clear view of who we're going to get.

And I think that sometimes...

clubs are bypassing that discussion about where... To have this discussion.

No, but which direction that we want to take, then it becomes clearer.

Exactly what we said before, like, you know, Rijkaard getting the opportunity maybe for not having... But you did say winner.

I said that my time, Man United were a winning team.

I didn't say they need to look for a winner.
