"Well, he's a manager who has his own ideas and he does not leave them much," he said (via ITV).

"He has an idea of ​​how he wants to play and the football he really wants to play in. He does not move.

"No matter what you tell him, no matter what you advise him, no matter what your opinion is, he will never change.

"He is very superstitious, he is very stubborn in this way.

"But he did it the way he likes it, he has his own vision of football and in the end he knows where he is and we have to respect that."
