He is a great talent with special qualities, a very promising central defender who possesses a good mentality and who will further enhance our growing squad.

That's not my area.

Simon has given this club great service but he was ready for a new challenge and we wish him all the best.

He was keen to return home and, although we rate him highly here, we did not like to see him unhappy.

When Roman came here he wanted to quickly get the club up to a certain level.

Our target is to find an academy player and bring him through to the first team in two years' time.

We do have to buy players like Real Madrid and AC Milan so we can't say our philosophy is just to use young players, ... We will bring players in from outside and inside but it is up to me and the academy to make sure the players are good enough.

I've been more involved in football in the last one-and-a-half months here than I have been in the entire year.

It is an excellent deal for us because Pedro gives us more options in midfield and brings with him experience in European competition.
