‘So he’s a leader, he wants you to win, but he says it in a harsh way. Which I like it, some people like, some people don’t. ‘He can bring some people high up, but he can bring some people down. With Zlatan you need to be strong mentally. It’s like a [Michael] Jordan style, I would say.‘He comes and talks to you in a nice way, sometimes he can go hard on you but not all the time.
‘There are different kinds of leaders. There are some leaders who don’t really speak, but on the pitch they will always show you. An example I will give you here in Italy, [Andrea] Pirlo. ‘Pirlo was a leader. On the pitch, a big leader, he’s not someone who speaks a lot in the changing room, but on the pitch he gave you this confidence, this trust, he was a different kind of leader.’
