My idea was to build Liverpool into a bastion of invinc ibility.

I don't think I was in a bath until I was 15 years old. I ud to u a tub to wash mylf. But out of poverty with a lot of people living in the same hou, you get humour.
I'm a people's man - only the people matter.
I was the best manager in Britain becau I was never devious or cheated anyone. I'd break my wife's legs if I played against her, but I'd never cheat her.
This is a team of skill and character, with men eager and ready to do any job if it's for the benefit of the club
