There was one after match interview for sky he did that made me laugh, i can't remember the exact quote but it was something like -

 

"the great thing about this team is we have speed.  And by speed i don't mean gary speed, i mean we have pace.  I mean we do have gary speed but that wasn't what i was talking about".

 

Wish I had the real quote because it was great.
