00:00I think one of our, I'd say, most famous, most popular managers we've had as a national team, of course.
00:08It'll be a sad night for a lot of England fans and a lot of England players.
00:15It'll be a good tribute to him that he fully deserves.
00:21From what I understand, obviously I didn't get to meet him personally,
00:26but just a great person, really loyal to his players and his job.
00:35I think he'll go down as one of England's best managers.
00:40From our point of view, we just wish all his family and friends their condolences
00:45and we hope we can pay a good tribute tomorrow night.
00:48I was never lucky enough to meet him, to be honest.
00:52He's played against his teams a few times.
00:54Obviously speaking to Ashley, who played under him,
00:58what he speaks mostly about is what a great person he was.
01:01Obviously he was a highly decorated coach as well.
