You create something unique. In the locker room, the spirt, and your friendship, it is impossible to achieve what we achieve if you are not good humans people, not good people.
'In the end, what we have done is to be better than 19 teams, nothing else. It is all, nothing else. But what you have done, you staff, you take care of all the people here and that is why you deserve all my respect.
