Quotes from Wayne Bridge

I didn't mind playing against Ronaldo. He wasn't as quick as me over the first few yards, I always felt that I could stick with him and I always felt I did okay against him. You always had to be switched on. He loved a step-over and was very skillful and he could sometimes make you look stupid.

I had a tough spell under Mourinho where I was in and out of the team, although I did turn a corner with him at one stage before injuries unfortunately got in my way. He could be a tough person to play for. When you were in favour with him it was great, but when you weren't you could feel like an outcast.

I played under Mourinho and went through good and bad spells with him. You could be playing a game and he has it in him to drag you off after half an hour and then he won't talk to you. And that can kill a player.
