They were showing an English version of it (though this interview is, obviously, just subtitled in Spanish) on FSC called "The Bosses", but they pulled the plug on that.

OK, more, and I took the time to get direct quotes from Bruce, some of which may surprise a little:

On coaches, "You must give Houllier credit with how he has come back from the Liverpool experience and done well with Lyon."

"Benitez has done an excellent job at Liverpool."

"Mourinho is a man that wins."

"I would like to look at opportunities in Europe. Obviously, the more obvious place for me to look is England, cause of the language."

Q: Is the Premier League the greatest in the world?

A: "NO"

And I quote, "Spain One, Italy Two, Premier League Three, France or Germany Four."

That's a direct quote from Bruce.

I guess he doesn't want that job in England too badly

"Italy is very serious, Spain more open."

Bundesliga "getting better". Bayern good, Werder Bremen played well vs. Milan in Champs League (OK, the man watches some 'ball).

--Bruce, do you watch the South American leagues?

"A little bit. Hard to follow (the league in) Brazil."

And then my favorite statement from Bruce on this subject.

"I FOLLOW ALL LEAGUES."

And you know what, I bet he does!

I also forgot to mention that the guy, in Spanish, says to his audience that he thinks he's getting more from Bruce than just the "4-4-2" reiteration that most coaches give. They say this often on Los Tecnicos to talk up the show, but it's often true.
