There is a common mistake people make. They say, 'We need to play the young English boys.' Of course, but only if they are good. How can you measure that?

Football has never been about young or old players - it is about good or bad players. If you're 13 or 31 and good enough, you're not too young or old.

I've been around young, talented, non-coachable players. I've been around veteran, talented, non-coachable players. No matter what you do, sooner or later - even if a coach comes in that's able to connect with them - if that's who they are, they're going to go back to it.

Current condition of the BYU football program? I think it's in good shape. We've got some good young players. We've had two or three pretty good recruiting years. We lost some players, obviously, that hurt us, but you always have turnover in college through attrition (graduation, transfers). That's the nature of the game.
It would be in my interest to have great players around me because, if you're playing with good players, it makes your job a lot easier.
For the fans, for the club, for the young players, I want to show there is a pathway at Fulham for young players to go through in the first team.

I always wanted to play for AC Milan or Real Madrid. Real Madrid, of course, because when I was young, the players that played there were the top players. I was looking at Real Madrid as the best of the best. And AC Milan, they also had good players when I was young, so I looked at AC Milan the same way as Real Madrid.
There are a lot of young players here right now, and these guys are going to eventually learn as they go. Next year we can't use that as an excuse that we had so many young players on the team.
