You have to realise that players change every year, just like we change because every year is different, as things happen in our lives.

We need to be regular and have consistency during the whole season.

If we want to fight at the end of the season for big things and to lift trophies, you need to keep that intensity always.

A lot can happen in football.

For me, what it means to be competitive is to work hard but compete in this type of game when you need to play, you need to suffer, you need to fight.

I think people always expect that when you have a good season and expect the next season to be better, and the season after better and better.

For me, every single game is an opportunity to improve.

That is the difference from being a manager and being a player: As a player, if you sign a contract for four years, if you want to be there for four years, you are. But as a manager, it always depends on the sack. You are always under pressure.

When I stopped playing football, I stopped my relationship with my agent. I always had one agent.

Sometimes, my kids say to me, 'Ah, you played with Maradona; you played with this, or you played with that.' And they are so proud.

I am so proud to be a manager in England.

I enjoy my time in Tottenham a lot.

When English football started to integrate more with European football, England started to share the Latin culture more.

It motivates me, being a parakeet and living for so many years in Barcelona. Going back to the city is always something nice, and playing against Barca, too.

It's difficult to innovate, but you must try to create a project under your ideas and philosophies to take you ahead of other clubs.

When Real Madrid call you, you have to listen to them.

All negative things you can turn positive, and for me, that is key.

The platform that we have created here in Tottenham is the most important, the platform we created between all the coaching staff - in the academy and the first team. The platform we created is more important than one person.

Sometimes it looks like the board and the chairman are the worst enemy of the manager and the coaching staff, the football versus the financial side.

If you win, of course celebrate and show the fans you're happy - it's fantastic - but when you win a trophy, when you win something special.

I don't want to lie. Always, I want to be honest and I say,I don't think about tomorrow. I don't think about next season.'

When you are next to Harry Kane, achieving all he is and scoring so many goals, it's normal that the focus is on Harry Kane.

Tottenham has given me value.

When you build a team, and you have 24 or 25 players, all can be decisive; can be important.
