“He trusted the individuals who labored underneath him, so his assistant coach would ship all of the coaching classes, his medical crew would ship all [their work].

I assumed that was fairly essential. Some managers, they’re on the pitch on daily basis and so they’re teaching on daily basis. And the one voice they [the players] hear is his. However he [Sir Alex] trusts his crew fully.”
