"It is an extremely good sign because normally people run away if there is bad news or bad weather coming, they are normally not coming in and being friendly for lunch."
"As long as we win football matches and make sure we win enough of them, everyone will support us. It is not about me. It is about supporting the team, the players."
"We need everyone to support us from minute one. Especially the team, especially the players. If we get that support, anything can happen. Magic can happen."
