achieving care committed full players stress success support
I know that I have the full support of the players and the FA, and it is important to stress to everyone just how committed I am to achieving success this summer. I care passionately about this job, and I want everyone to know that.
knew yesterday
I knew yesterday that he had more than one fracture. That's what I heard. I don't know what that means, but I'm not that pessimistic.
angry second
I'm sorry, I'm very disappointed and angry about the second half.
doubt match michael percent
If Michael Owen is 100 percent fit, there is no doubt he will play. He has had only one competitive match this season, but if he is fit, he is very important for us.
football losing sleep
I have no idea what I will do after the World Cup, but I am not losing sleep over it. I am not having any discussions, but I think that I will still be working in football in August.
aim cup detail england excited fans involved ireland northern players prepare qualify since supported thank
I'm very excited because the big aim for us since two years ago has been to qualify for the World Cup and there were a lot of discussions about England not going, especially after the Northern Ireland game. Now the big aim is to prepare everything in detail for the World Cup. I should like to thank all the players who have been involved and all the fans who have supported us, they've been fantastic.
best pick
I'm very open-minded. What is important is that I pick the 23 best players.
best check defenders injury rule time wait
I'm told it's not the same injury as before but I haven't been able to check it out yet. But I can say that we will wait a long time to rule him out because he is one of the best defenders in the world today.
coming
I'm coming back. I'm fit. It's all coming together.
arsenal basis concern hope injured puts regular regularly situation soon start wants
I hope he will soon start to play for Arsenal on a regular basis because that's a must if he wants to play at the World Cup. My only concern is that he's injured and not playing. It's the same with Woodgate and Dyer. If they don't play regularly that puts me in a situation because I'm responsible for the squad.
hope tournament
I really, really hope we can do a big, big tournament in the summer.
cup england fingers great players
I really hope, fingers crossed, there will be no injuries, because I always said England will have a great World Cup if all the players are fit.
defended half remember second
In the second half we defended brilliantly and I don't remember Austria having a chance.
focused happy meet opponent pitch promise
If you meet an opponent not concentrated you are very happy -- that's sport -- but I can promise you that we will be very focused and concentrated on the pitch tomorrow.
