I think Barcelona and the Spanish national team have been good for soccer because there are a lot of teams that come up playing from the back: with the goalie, the defense, moving up a defender to midfield, playing attacking soccer. I think fans want to see that. They want to see beautiful soccer, a spectacle, and Barcelona does that.

As a student of the R.I.C.H. I have found out that there is a secret code they live by. It is never in the front end, it is always in the back end. It is in the systems they create and in the people they affect. They know that they don't win alone, they carry people along. The journey is never done alone
