Well, it’s not luck. It’s not even speed. Yeah, it’s authority. The greats, Pele, Maradona, Cristiano, Messi, they don’t chase the ball. The ball responds to them,” he said during his appearance. The player continued to draw comparisons between his football skills and his approach. “For me, Digger. I play a big, big ball, and I don’t play to win; I play to rule. See, we’re legends now, we can make you believe anything. Even that gravity doesn’t exist. Right, Maggie?” His words emphasized his philosophy of seeking excellence rather than mere success in his work.
