To find a man’s true character, play golf with him.
A writer may tell me that he thinks man will ultimately become an ostrich. I cannot properly contradict him.
Usually, a Brazilian doesn’t like to work hard in training, doesn’t like to stay focused. I trained a lot of Brazilian players. I had a problem with Ronaldo at Milan. It was not easy to get him fit! Ronaldo was 100kg but was the quickest in the 10 metre test!
