We did it every game, and we just don’t want to change it.“It’s not that we disrespect someone.



We just want to get into football. We just want to be with each other.

I think it is better to play one-touch and warm-up with a football than sit in the changing room, be on your own, and just don’t talk to each other.“It was an hour before the game. It doesn’t matter if we played one-touch or we didn’t.”Want more Empire of the Kop coverage?
