Emery: “Success consists of doing something important & being able to repeat it over time. In my case, everything comes from my passion for football, which is my way of living. I want to compete & I want to win. For that I dedicate my time to work, analyse rivals, study my team & constantly update myself. That’s the real method.”
Emery: “Preparing for a final? I try to be very busy. I prepare every detail, I talk a lot with the players — both individually & collectively. I also look for moments to disconnect, for example, I play fast chess games. It helps me clear my mind & chess also teaches a lot about concentration and mistakes.”
Emery: “We are very lucky with our owners. Nassef, Wes & Michael support us a lot. They have supported all the improvements of the project, from infrastructure to sports growth. Even if they are not in the day to day, they always appear at important moments & transmit a lot of confidence.”
Emery: “Receiving calls & offers? Yes, of course. After so many years you live with it. But when I’m focused on competing, there’s nothing to distract me. I am completely focused on the team’s goal.”
