Leon Osman

“Management is like chess, even though the pieces perform themselves. They're not bits of wood - they've got their own minds, their own bodies and their own abilities. But you can position them where you want and hope the strategy works out. You try to out-fox and out-manoeuvre the opposition manager. Do you do that by leaving a piece in a certain place to affect what the opposition is going to do? Or do you keep pieces in station?”
― Leon Osman, Ossie: My Autobiography
