Gordon Strachan Quotes

On Wayne Rooney...

"It's an incredible rise to stardom. At 17 you're more likely to get a

call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson."





Reporter: "Gordon, can we have a quick word please?"

Strachan: "Velocity" [walks off]







Reporter: So, Gordon, in what areas do you think Middlesbrough were

better than you today?

Strachan: What areas? Mainly that big green one out there.







Reporter: "Gordon, what will you take from today?"

Strachan: I've got more important things to think about. I've got a

Yoghurt to finish, the expiry date is today.





Reporter: There goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?

Strachan: No, I'm just going to crumble like a wreck. I'll go home,

Become an alcoholic and maybe jump off a bridge.







Reporter: There's no negative vibes or negative feelings here?

Strachan: Apart from yourself, we're all quite positive round here. I'm

going to whack you over the head with a big stick, down negative man,

down.





Reporter: Welcome to Southampton Football Club. Do you think you are the

right man to turn things around? Strachan:No, I think they should have

got George Graham because I'm useless.







Reporter: where will Marion Pahars fit into the team line-up?

Strachan: Not telling you! It's a secret.







Reporter: "What is your impression of Jermaine Pennant?"

Strachan: "I don't do impressions"





Reporter: So Gordon, any changes then ?

Strachan: Naw, still 5ft 6, ginger and a big nose!







Gary Lineker: So Gordon, if you were English, what formation would you

play?

Gordon Strachan: If I was English I'd top myself!
