Ben Stokes, for example, is someone who plays better when he is a bit aggressive - and that's something you don't want to take away from him.
Every quarterback's goofy. Every player out here is goofy. Don't think they're all serious.
Any guard would love playing with a great big man, one who rebounds, blocks shots, and scores.
I've turned down a lot of trades where I might have gotten a better player, but I wasn't totally sure of the chemistry of that new player coming in. Even though he might possess golden ability, his personality and the way he gets along with teammates might be things you just don't want to cope with.
With Marouane's hair, I actually wondered if it might take a bit of the pace off the ball when he went up for a header. But I soon realised it was part of his personality. Part of who he is.
Different players have different characteristics.
There's always two or three players I like, and why I like them, I can't tell you. There's just something about them I think would be great on a team.
I am the sort of player that likes to create goals. I think a lot of my team-mates know me as a player who is not selfish.
Michu and Van Persie are similar. They look alike. They are both tall, left-footed players. They are not fast, but they know when to make the runs.
As a coach you need to choose the characteristics your players can contribute. I don't think it's a good thing for a coach to analyse his team by looking for something he sees in other teams. He has to pay close attention to the characteristics his team have, and make the most of those.
It's not common for your best player to also be your most unselfish player.
But when you get into a situation where you can acquire a proven leader, a proven quality player, an unselfish player, a guy who taken a team to the Super Bowl, I think you do it.
