Hull City winger Ahmed Elmohamady loves playing for manager Steve Bruce.
Elmohamady is in no doubt why he and the Tigers have enjoyed so much success together.
"Steve Bruce is a great coach and I consider him to be my spiritual father," he told the Hull Daily Mail.
"He brought me from ENPPI Sporting Club in Egypt to Sunderland and then I joined him at Hull. He means a lot to me and I credit him for what I have achieved. He believed in me and that gave me confidence.
"My love for him doesn't mean that I would follow him to any club.
"I am a professional player and I have my own ambitions. But it is an honour to work with a coach with the stature and capabilities of Steve Bruce."
