He said, "I think it is a pleasure for everyone to offer this trophy to the coach. We'll know in the next few days what he's going to do. Regardless of his decision, I think it was important for him to win this FA Cup.

"We are all proud to have done so. We hope that he will stay, but it is not our decision, he is the only one able to decide. We'll see in a few days ... He's done so much for the club.
