I think they've got a new system there on defense, and they're obviously very, very well-coached, and I have great respect there for Coach Parcells.

The certainty that our football, the football of Spain, is recognised, that's very important to us - perhaps more important than the successes and the joy that you can create. Football hasn't always been appreciated, and luckily our football is appreciated now, at all levels of society.
