"Thanks to everyone who works at the club who are the least seen but who work the hardest, so we can enjoy everyday and the team can achieve big goals.
"Finally, a special mention to all the fans, your support and respect during this time has been incredible. Your welcome after the World Cup, I will never forget it.
“I don’t have any doubts that this team is going to achieve many important things, because they have the football skills and human quality to do it.
"I’ll always watch you and support you (except when I play against you!). THANKS A LOT SEAGULLS! You will always have a special place in my heart!"
