Gordon Strachan Quotes

[Dan]

Southampton manager Gordon Strachan on Wayne Rooney : Its an incredible riise to stardom, at 17 you're more likely to get a call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson.

Reporter: Gordon, Do you think James Beattie deserves to be in the England squad?

Strachan: I dont care, I'm Scottish

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

Strachan: "Velocity" [walks off]

Reporter: Welcome to Southampton Football Club. Do you think you are the right man to turn things around?

Strachan: No. I was asked if I thought I was the right man for the job and I said, "No, I think they should have got George Graham because I'm useless."

Reporter: Is that your best start to a season?

Strachan: Well I've still got a job so it's far better than the Coventry one, that's for sure.

Reporter: Are you getting where you want to be with this team?

Strachan: We're not doing bad. What do you expect us to be like? We were eighth in the league last year, in the cup final and we got into Europe. I don't know where you expect me to get to. Do you expect us to win the Champions League?

Reporter: Gordon, you must be delighted with that result?

Strachan: You're spot on! You can read me like a book.

On Augustine Delgado:

Strachan: I've got more important things to think about. I've got a yogurt to finish by today, the expiry date is today. That can be my priority rather than Agustin Delgado.

Reporter: This might sound like a daft question, but you'll be happy to get your first win under your belt, won't you?

Strachan: You're right. It is a daft question. I'm not even going to bother answering that one. It is a daft question, you're spot on there.

Reporter: Bang, there goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?

Strachan: No, I'm just going to crumble like a wreck. 'll go home, become an Rod Jane and Freddy and maybe! jump off a bridge. Umm, I think I can take it, yeah.

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

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

Reporter: You don't take losing lightly, do you Gordon?

Strachan: I don't take stupid comments lightly either.

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....

My fav.

[Jook]

They were great. Stach's a legend.

[ADG]

Brilliant quotes. Why can't all managers be like Strachan?

Reporter: This might sound like a daft question, but you'll be happy to get your first win under your belt, won't you?

Strachan: You're right. It is a daft question. I'm not even going to bother answering that one. It is a daft question, you're spot on there.

My favourite one.

[TheArsenal]

You should see some by QPR manager Ian Holloway too. He is hilarious!!

Good old Strachan though....he's a legend.

[TheGame3000uk]

He would be a great replacement for Ron Atkinson on ITV, but I would rather see him come back to manage Southampton.

LOL yeah I remember the one where he was going on about ugly women and good-looking women or something.

And the best Strachan one is the last one.

[Summers]

LOL

Brilliant.

[R.W.]

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

Strachan: "Velocity" [walks off]

The best one by far. Little Gordon is one of the best characters in football.

[Stevie B]

Brilliant quotes. Why can't all managers be like Strachan?

As that would suck the humour out of Stracham and no longer make him a unique ginger.

[lazy_arse]

Probably my second favourite manager in terms of entertainment, behind Ranieri of course.

[Guest OnlyOneKeano]

Strachan was the funniest manager in the prem but Pleat is close , but Pleat isnt trying to be funny , he just sounds like a right twat .

[lazy_arse]

Yeah, actually Pleat does come out with some legendary quotes himself

[Johnny Drama]
