“Didier is a very good lad, ... He's much better than some people in England think. He hasn't shown the best quality yet but in Marseilles he was incredibly good. I know he will show that again. I still believe he was a great signing for Chelsea. He shouldn't think about how much he cost, just concentrate on his game because I know he will do even better this season.”
“I know about football - I've played for six clubs after all - and I can see the changes Martin makes during matches. Managing isn't only about training and talking, it's about what you do during the 90 minutes. That's his strongest point - his tactics, how he changes the game.”
