"Extremely flattered and I feel extremely honoured to have been asked to coach Nashama for this coming Asian Games and
I've got to say I'm really looking forward to it immensely. I'll be coming over and my number two will be Frank Stapleton, who you've probably heard of and read about many, many times back in England. An excellent footballer and a very good coach as well."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Ray Wilkins, Jordan head coach

"I sincerely hope we will have a very good relationship and as I've said to the majority of people I've spoke to within the Federation that I have no problem whatsoever with anybody who wants interviews or questions, it's really not a problem, that's why I'm here. I'm not only here from the footballing perspective, but I am here to assist in any possible way that I can. So within the five month contract that I have I will work extremely hard on behalf of all of you."
