Both of these guys are phenomenal. They have an instinct for the game that can't be taught. They are two physically different individuals with outstanding football intelligence.

It was near impossible to deal with. I hadn't been out that much since the very first year I played since I was 9. I'm fairly fast and fairly strong. I didn't have the stats to get interest this year.

We've talked about having killer instinct and putting teams away. But we gave up a goal in the last minute (of the second) and that's something that seems to be repetitive in our game over the last few weeks and we've got to address it. This isn't the time of year you want this to happen.

Sublimation of instinct is an especially conspicuous feature of cultural development; it is what makes it possible for higher psychical activities, scientific, artistic or ideological, to play such an important part in civilized life. If one were to yield to a first impression, one would say that sublimation is a vicissitude which has been forced upon the instincts entirely by civilization. But it would be wiser to reflect upon this a little longer. In the third place, finally, and this seems the most important of all, it is impossible to overlook the extent to which civilization is built up upon a renunciation of instinct, how much it presupposes precisely the non-satisfaction (by suppression, repression or some other means?) of powerful instincts. This ‘cultural frustration’ dominates the large field of social relationships between human beings;we know already that it is the cause of the antagonism against which all civilization has to fight.

I believe in instinct, not in reason. When reason is right, nine times out of ten it is impotent, and when it prevails, nine times out of ten it is wrong.

We surely know by some nameless instinct more about our futures than we think we know.
