came felt friday played reserves trained
He trained all week, played in the reserves and said he felt really good. Then he came in on Friday with a back injury.
chances clinical couple normally struck
He'd had a couple of chances before that. He's normally a clinical finisher, but he's struck that one in.
agreement club mutual plans
Gregory has not been in my plans and the club have come to a mutual agreement for his departure.
central head injury neither
Had we had another injury to one of our central defenders, I would have had to put a full-back in there - and neither of them can head the ball!
chairman chance hoping
I am hoping we still have a chance of getting him. The chairman is working on it and that's all you can ask.
bought england player tackled weeks within
I bought a player and within two weeks he doesn't want to be in England. He doesn't like the way we play and he doesn't like to be tackled in training!
fire low sale sure
You get disappointed and feel low but I just wanted some clarification of where we wanted to go, I wanted to make sure there was not going to be a fire sale of the better players.
asked chairman exciting good looking milan sounds spoke
When Milan spoke with me and told me about this guy, I never asked for any assurances. The chairman just said 'I'm looking to do something with someone Harry. It's going to be good for the club, they desperately want you this that and the other', so I said 'that's fine'. It sounds as if he will be exciting for the club.
language time
At no time did I use abusive language.

There has not been one problem. Clive does not come in and tell me 'you should do that'.
bed fantastic forward life looking pull season takes
I would give anything to be able to put it to bed. It takes your life over but I'm only looking forward to the end of the season if we can pull it off because it would be a fantastic escape.
careless fairness gave good
We had a very good first half, got careless in the second, but in fairness to Portsmouth they never gave in.
best came chance coming couple enjoy felt ground regretted slim took training week
When I came back I felt we had a very slim chance of getting out of it, to be honest. A couple of friends who come here every week said we had no chance. But it was a challenge, and I took it on. I've never regretted it. I feel comfortable here. I enjoy coming into the training ground in the morning. I think that's important. It ain't the best training ground in the world but I feel comfortable there, you know?
