“They are the ones around the dressing room. Setting the tone. Setting the standards on the training pitch or around the training ground.”

“Whenever people are disappointed at not being in the team. To make sure they aren’t too disruptive because you can get characters like that, who can get into a mood. We had loads of them.”
