“I am in the list of those who are punished if they speak about the referees before the game”. There is an imaginary list of technicians who can criticize referees and another one that can’t.

He repeatedly declined to name the Frenchman, whom he referred to as “the king”, but it was clear who he was speaking about. Look at the team of Chelsea when he left: they all survived after and they all stayed after as well.
