"I see staff that really enjoy being together. I see in general a club that has great values that are built on a really stable foundation.

"I really enjoy the journey and with all the positives and negatives, it’s important to experience both and to learn from them.

"When I have to emphasize one thing I’ve learnt from most, it's to adapt to every situation no matter whether it’s during the game, during the day here, for the intensity and demand from the Premier League, for this very competitive league.

"Therefore the biggest thing I’ve learned is being able to adapt in every moment. Of course we can structure a week, a month but you need the ability to adapt… I praise this new adaptation of this skill.”
