00:00 you don't really know what challenges exist until you're in it.
00:03 So even here, people can assume what kind of challenges I had coming in,
00:06 but it's probably not a tenth of what we had to do
00:10 or what I felt needed to change to happen.
00:12 And whether that's Maurizio or any other manager,
00:15 I guess you don't really know what they're having to deal with
00:20 to get to the end point.
00:22 But at the same time, while others may look at it and say,
00:28 "You know, that's a real difficult one,"
00:30 the manager is saying, "I wish I had a billion to spend and waste,"
00:33 because there's always...
00:36 You know, what people sometimes see as an advantage
00:38 is not necessarily the case.
00:40 What others see as a disadvantage is not always the case.
00:42 And, you know, that's the challenge for all us managers.
00:46 I really think we're all in our own unique space
00:49 that no-one can really understand
00:50 because we can't...
00:52 None of us can really disclose all the information
00:54 because that's the way organisations work.
00:56 So what I have to deal with and what Maurizio has to deal with
01:00 are probably very, very different.
01:03 But in essence, what we're trying to do is the same thing -
01:05 is build a team that hopefully we believe can bring success.
01:10 You look at Maurizio's track record
01:13 and I've got no doubt that he'll get Chelsea on the right path.
01:17 I've got no doubt about that.
01:18 But how he goes about that, he knows better than anyone else.
