The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Clarence Thomas
- Capello put me behind Demetrio Albertini, so I had the right position. I had to follow him like a shadow. It was to learn the basics, but at the same time, it was also a great vote of confidence.
- When I told Arsene Wenger I was leaving, he said to me, ‘I have £25m to spend on a few players.’ My answer was, ‘Obviously, Mr. Wenger, you are not shopping in Harrods. That will only buy you one good player.’ Now I have been proved right.
- It was complicated at Madrid. I was suspicious. The lack of recognition for Makelele over there scared me. I was scared it would happen to me. But I should have gone there. Today, I don’t regret the career that I have had, but if I could have changed one thing, it would be that: to go to Madrid.
- Every single position has a massive part to play on a team.
- I’m passionate about the job. I’m really excited. I’m really determined.
- When you’re in youth development, you have to develop players – win or come in second. But the job where I am and the reality of our industry is to win to be successful, and that is what I have to do. I have to be successful, and I want to be successful, so we’ll do everything we can do to win.
- My commitment, and my desire to win the ball or make a tackle, that will never change. But you grow up. I’m not 20 any more.
- I wasn’t ready to manage straight away. You have a few players who stopped and managed a first team straight away and were successful, and then there are the other ones who take different pathways. And I think what was important for me was to understand what I really wanted to do.
- I’m a good listener, and I take into consideration everything people tell me, but at the same time, I believe my eyes as well as the experience I had as a player. So players who underperform? There has to be a reason why… my job is for them to perform.
- I think football reflects our society. Our society changes. The evolution of society dictates the evolution of the game.
