“There is strong quality in this playing squad, and my job is to organise it, energise it and improve our results quickly,” – after being appointed Spurs interim manager.

“We were not good, lacked everything. Attacking and defending. There are problems here, big problems,” – after Spurs’ 2-1 loss to Fulham.

“I didn’t like the referee today, too much of a home team referee,” – criticising ref Tom Bramall for not giving a foul in the build-up to Fulham’s opener at Craven Cottage.

“I will tell you now, maybe it will sound strange, but I believe more after this game than I believed before. I saw something,” – after Spurs’ 3-1 home loss to Crystal Palace, where thousands of fans left early.

“After you see what happened, it’s the wrong decision. But it was the right decision before” – on picking goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky against Atletico Madrid – then subbing him after 17 minutes.

“You can stay and cry or you can fight,” – ahead of facing Liverpool, following their heavy defeat in Madrid.

“You ask the coach about his position. You don’t have any sense,” – his spiky response in an interview with Sky Sports about whether he is the right man for Spurs.
