"I am not upset with anything. I am such a lucky guy that I can't be upset with anything. I am upset with nothing," he said.
"The only thing that upsets me a little bit is the criticism of my players. My players are my players.
"I should protect them, I would love to protect them and from you, I can't. That is something that is completely out of my control.
"That doesn't upset me. It just gives me a feeling that it's hard. It's like when you want to protect people and you can't.
