1. Never make decisions when angry. Conte decided to release Costa because he felt he longer need him. You can see how the season turned out.

2. If you must change a thing or process, let it be for a better one. Don't trade a Matic for Bakayoko.

3. You might not be the best in your field, but if true to yourself and style, your time might come. Lukaku is the fifth youngest to score 100 goals in the EPL.

4. Because you failed once does not mean you cannot try again. You only get to rewrite your story when you don't give up. Salah failed at Chelsea, he rewriting his story with Liverpool.

5. It is good to be contented with a goal, but with time, it might not be enough. Don't be a Jose Mourinho when you can get more goals.

6. Pursue different options when you are young enough to do so. As you grow older, you will have to master one. C. Ronaldo scores goals for fun now. A younger CR7 could dribble, pass, sprint and score at will. These days, man's hot in front of goal. No time.

7. Talent will get you there, but consistency will keep you there. Messi.

8. If you have the funds, spend it wisely - on talents. Pep Guadiola

9. A wise visitor knows when to leave. Don't wait until they create a hashtag for you: #WengerOut.

10. Be passionate about what you do that you also motivate others. And never forget true success takes time. Jurgen Klopp.

11. Learn from people you admire. Know how they do what they do and better it. Be careful not to be another clone. Nani.

12. You are not too old to achieve. Jamie vardy.

13. Be successful enough that, even after you are long gone, they still talk about you. Alex Ferguson.
