paolo di canio - mad rant lyrics

q : you wanted good performance from the side and you got one. you must be happy?

pdc : you are very generous. no, in terms of discipline, desire, commitment, nothing to say. i really think you know that they gave everything

i told them, obviously, bale once again – unfortunately – made the difference but you can appreciate the goal he scored. it’s obvious that they [tottenham] should score even before

they deserved to stay 1-0 up early but in terms of commitment, desire to only say thanks to the players but that should be normal. it’s obvious my frustration is because, we didn’t cause more problem to the opponent but in general today, yes. i’m happy

very happy. because, after what’s happened during the week, it wasn’t easy. coming here with 11 adults, six, seven adults, some young on the field starting eleven and six kids on the bench wasn’t easy. until the end we were nearly able to pick a point. that is one of the only good things that happened today

q : can you give us your thoughts on the pictures of phil bardsley?

pdc : you know more than me. i discover… i saw the picture on a website, the moment later, of the night that they spent out so what do i have to tell you?

he’s out of my squad. it’s obvious. how i can play a player that probably is blurry for three, four days after what’s happened? more importantly i want to deliver a very clear message that i have wanted to deliver since the beginning – that there is no excuse to behave like he did, because wigan lost the game

now we stay up, otherwise every time we are going to beat man united what are we going to do? or after every newcastle game?

what are we going to do, spend two nights out because we are happy? i can understand if we win a champions league or maybe an fa cup. even can have two gl-ss of red wine i can understand because i know it is a different culture

it can happen also to me. celebrate a uefa cup with juventus, more in the night, more drink but i can imagine because i don’t want to change the culture of the people

but i told them, from the day before: ‘from now i will be more strict because i will judge you more carefully because -now- we have to improve our professionalism. we have to respect the dignity of the club, the fans because they still follow us [3,000 people at spurs] and the rules of the sport because, like we were happy when swansea won against wigan, we have to make sure we give everything to make difficult for tottenham

for -rs-nal, obviously for ourselves, but also for the others. the most important thing is for us but also for the sport in general. [the players] have to care what is going on around us. but, if you don’t respect yourself, how can you respect the others?

q: does it affect his [bardsley’s] future?

pdc : i will think really carefully. always i give a second chance to the people. we are talking about 31 years of age, not a kid, with a family at home. i’m not here to be a priest, to convince the people to be different but to talk about my club and my team. we have a fantastic academy. we have young players that they have the changing room next to the adult

if we don’t punish this kind of behaviour, what are we talking about, a fantastic academy? they are going to sprint down, get the boots and “good morning” to everybody? they’re very educated people, but if we don’t punish this kind of behaviour, how do they grow up? thinking they can laugh about what they saw on the website picture? maybe they think it’s fantastic, to be like a gangster. but what mentality are we going to deliver?

sometimes i discovered here at sunderland – and at many other places, unfortunately – there is always a fantastic christmas box. then inside…oh, nothing. there is a piece of chocolate that’s open already. we have to put something in this box, otherwise we’re always talking and we close our eyes and we’re never going to change. in the future i will be very clear with the players

it’s not an english culture, just a different culture. i don’t want to change the culture because i love england. when you decide to work in an environment there is positive and negative. i know this part. i was speaking with andre [villas boas] before and it’s normal, but not often and not at the wrong time. there is time and time

tonight i can imagine [the players will go out because we won], even after the newcastle game [ which we won], i can imagine. but not like we saw [on tuesday night]. that is something really wrong

it’s disgusting me even to see the image for the club. it’s not about going out with your friend and getting back at two o’clock or three o’clock, which is late. but you can close one eye. but not full of alcohol and walking like this. they have to behave well

it takes three or four days [to recover]. i realised in the morning because i didn’t see the picture, to be honest, i told my -ssistant manager: ‘i don’t play phil sunday or today.’

q : why?

pdc : look. i speak to him and he look in the sky. he can’t listen what i’m going to tell him. he’s blurry: ‘i don’t know what’s happened.’

the day after i discovered what had happened and, obviously, i ring my player and i discovered it was a really, really bad situation. i discovered that out with him were other players, but the others left the two guys before, to get into the casino and stay there until early in the morning, which is completely different

obviously, tuesday night they went out together, had dinner and watched the game. they are allowed to do this. they had a drink, celebrated and they were happy. i can imagine. ten o’clock, 11 o’clock, midnight…but not exaggerate. what i saw is not acceptable for my club and for my squad. that is not acceptable

talking about mentality it’s not only the manager. all my staff, we have to make sure that when we bring in players they are good professionals because they have to influence each other. the dressing room is their kingdom. i can’t put the strict rules to help them to understand we have to behave in a different way. we need to bring in six or seven players who know how to behave ad have a professional ethic and then they can help each other. otherwise, for me, it’s difficult

we are talking about profession or the job we want to deliver or rules. i go mad because, i’m telling you this. what happened to bardsley is a … p-ss for what’s happened the last three days. in a week i give in 7 players hands, 7 fines. even then four players are half an hour late…

q : [interruption] will there be another fine for the sending off?

pdc : it’s clear it was a silly, silly, challenge. you have to be punished in some way because in here [points to his head] there was the mentality that he already got punished.he got the three match ban. of course he says sorry but we live in life

i drive [too] fast two months ago. i say sorry but i get fine. probably they are going to give me 6 points. i was wrong. there is a picture but maybe that wasn’t paolo di canio. maybe i should send other maybe information!

paolo di canio was guilty and i have to pay the price otherwise i’m never going to have self-discipline. so we have to help the people to understands to take their responsibility

this week, 7 fines. and this morning, this morning, once again – even if they didn’t care about what is happening at the academy of light – one player who could not be involved in my squad for different reasons today, they decide ‘i don’t train today’

they make the diagnosis themselves. one player didn’t go to the academy of light because he said ‘yesterday i had a food poisoning.’ sorry ‘are you the doctor?’

the doctor tried to contact him and three hours he switched off the telephone. this is the situation at sunderland. this is why i tell you we made a miracle. we made a miracle

previously, eight games, three points. with di canio seven games, eight points. that is the miracle we made. without the strikers. because before there was fletcher available. stephane available. craig available. 3 top strikers

that is the miracle we made. but we can’t make a miracle forever so we have to change lots of things. or maybe i’m going to tell you this and tonight they are going to sack me

but of you want to change something you have to follow me otherwise it’s difficult to get better results than what they got in the last few games

q : are you going to speak to the owner? do you have his support?

pdc : he knows. i will get the chance when i meet him. we are going to sit at the table and go through but he knows many things

i spoke to him before by telephone and he told me we are going to change many things. this is what he told me before

relax, don’t worry because we are going to change many things. so it sounds like he supports me completely. we will see in the future

have you fined the players for similar offences to phil bardsley

no. different reasons. they haven’t broken my rules but the rules you have in e very club. because if you are injured and no that you have plans in the morning and have treatment in the afternoon you have to go in the pool

and [yet you] you leave [at] lunchtime and switch off the telephone and n0body can contact you for all day then you have to get fined

this is not paolo di canio. when i gave the fine in his hand the day after he was surprised. he thought it was normal to leave the training ground, switch off the phone and i don’t go through the job i have to do

i don’t care to have argument with my players but they have to go through the rules. this is one and the others. if you think after aston villa we lost 6-1. we gave the (meeting) point as four o’clock in the afternoon

someone arrived at 4.20. i didn’t get the appointment to them. if i did i can understand and you don’t sleep. but at 4.20 and you don’t arrive, what sense of responsibility have they got? they live 5 minutes from the academy of light

three, four players arrived by [motions as if strolling in leisurely]. if you are late i can imagine you are late, you are running, ‘ i’m sorry.’ this was the behaviour at a club in the premier league. that spends millions and millions

its not acceptable. i thought it was only at swindon, league two, that they were arrogant, ignorant footballers because they’ve not had many chances to stay at the top level

i have to tell you unfortunately i found a worse environment in terms of discipline in this club. this is what i’ve found in the last few weeks so we have to change completely

it will be hard if i don’t receive the maximum support from the board because i know every time you know that the player will go to the pfa, the pfa will call then you have to let them speak and try to explain why

they excuse people that behave like phil bardsley. you can’t fine them but have to let them speak and explain why?

why do they need to speak? they get fined. they are under a private club. the pfa don’t pay them, it’s a private club that pays them

they have to now try and understand because for our player we already received a phone call. it was a clear misconduct. but the club pay them, not you. now we have to be more sensible but it’s very difficult to change

q : will those players be at sunderland next year if you can control that decision?

pdc : (pauses) no. not under me

q : do you have financial backing from the owner?

pdc : i know that there is a plan. the picture is clear before me. i have told about it already. i am head coach, the others have to handle the financial situation. i have said we need this player, this quality, in this position, show me the player we can go and i tell them yes this player is ok

q : what about holidays? have you cut their holiday time?

pdc : for the players? the next few days we will be in together because previously once again the people you see organised during the week to go from london to hawaii, miami

they was thinking 4 or 5 days ago: ‘we will organise the bags, my wife, my girlfriend and we go together.’

not possible. today we fly back to sunderland, our city, as a team. -we- stay tomorrow together with the kit sponsors as we have a job to do with this. then the players have international football. the others will stay together. we will enjoy it and then they can go on holiday.’
