To be able to influence someone or to be able to have a group of guys come together to have a successful team and to be together all the time every day for, you know, a year and longer together, you have to have a - find a common ground. And that common ground for us is football. ↗

I don't care what gender someone is, or what race they are. Those things don't matter to me. ↗
