“I’m just a very optimistic person. I don’t have any magical recipe.”

The wisdom of Martí Cifuentes, Manager of Queen's Park Rangers, shared in an article by Jacob Steinberg.

Jacon wrote, "In life and football there’s always some kind of risk, isn’t there?” Martí Cifuentes says. The Queens Park Rangers manager is thinking about his unusual journey and remembers the difficult early days at AAB Aalborg. “When I went to Denmark it took six official games for me to win,” the 41-year-old continues. “The headline in the main sport newspaper was ‘The worst coach ever in the history of the Superliga’.”

"The barbs washed over Cifuentes. “I am very used to being inexperienced, too young, whatever,” the Catalan says. “I’m just a very optimistic person. I don’t have any magical recipe.”
