When you sign a six-year contract and you end up being there 10 months — yeah, I believe I was unfairly treated. That is life in football. Ultimately, the key is to win football matches. I didn’t win enough. But you must say there were mitigating circumstances. And I think there are maybe things that have gone on since then that would actually justify that even more so.
