You have some brilliant moments, and some moments when you have to make decisions. I am sitting here to try to make the right decisions every day. My only intention is that to get the club in the best possible condition, to defend our players and get the best possible results on the pitch that we can. It has been challenging because those decisions are tough and not pleasant, but you have to do what you feel is right.
