“I put Micah Richards in the team ahead of him. And Nedum Onuoha. Danny gets paid to make observations about football and I will accept anything he has to say. I have no idea what he did say and I suspect it was not complimentary about me, as a manager.
“But it is neither here nor there. I can’t worry about what every pundit says. My respect goes to people like Steve McClaren, Tony Pulis, Harry Redknapp – people who have spent hundreds and thousands of games in the technical area. They are the ones who get my respect in football.”
