I'm a manager who respects club policy.
I'm sure at some point in my life, I'll want to go back to club football because people will say, 'Oh well, he did OK as an international manager, but he didn't work as a club manager.'
When you become the manager of a leading club, there are so many situations you have to cope with. You have to deal with the people in charge of the club, the players, the media, the expectation... you have to deal with the whole environment around the club, and that is something you can find difficult.
With a club like Manchester United that have history and traditions, I think the manager at the club should respect that.
He who brings a style to a club that can't carry it out, he is not a good manager, because he is attacking the club that hires him.
I think the next United manager is already at the club. It could be either Ryan Giggs or Ole Gunnar Solksjaer, who isn't at the club.
A manager sets objectives - A manager organizes - A manager motivates and communicates - A manager, by establishing yardsticks, measures - A manager develops people.
Every moment I spend in Philly, it's amazing. The city respects us, respects sports, respects hard work.
I think Manchester United is a much bigger club than any manager in the world, and the manager who comes in should respect what Manchester United is.
He comes to London and gets a job in a nightclub, a gay club, where he's known as Straight Dave by the bar staff - and no one believes he's as straight as he claims to be. He meets the daughter of the club manager, and he has an affair with her.
There might be more meetings and situations where you're required to represent the country in some way that wouldn't necessarily happen to you if you're a club manager, but other than that, I haven't found any differences in my approach between running a club side and a national team.
When I was 13, I used to go to a jazz club. The owner of the club became my first business manager. She was very gutsy and had a lot of friends, one of whom happened to be the head of jazz at Columbia at the time. That's how it all began.
No one respects the umpire's job more than I do; but, if I were a manager, I would probably be ejected three or four times a season fighting for my team.
People can say the money doesn't really matter but it does show you how much a club respects you.
I had other interesting offers, but for me, it had to be a top club. When you look at Arsenal, with a fantastic manager, good environment, and never any bad press surrounding the club, they are playing attractive football and have a great stadium with great fans.
If you are a club manager and things are going well, it's a great feeling because you've got the whole city behind you. If you're manager of your country and it's going well - and you've got a whole nation proud of you - I can't describe how that feels.
Real Madrid are an interesting club for any manager.
