Stjepan Lamza - Personal Life

Personal Life

Lamza once stated that he was probably saved when Dinamo's patronage Zdravko Mamić and head coach at the time Miroslav Blažević offered him to work for the club, at the beginning of the nineties, as he had only around 200 euros of pension from which he does not know how would he been able to survive. He also stated that he sees Luka Modrić as his successor due to his similar style of playing and physique.

Luka Modrić reminds me of me. He is fast without the ball as I was. When I had the ball at my feet I went like a rocket, as I always knew where I want to go with it.

—Stjepan Lamza when asked about his successor

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:

    He hadn’t known me fifteen minutes, and yet he was ... ready to talk ... I was still to learn that Munshin, like many people from the capital, could talk openly about his personal life while remaining a dream of espionage in his business operations.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    Your children don’t have equal talents now and they won’t have equal opportunities later in life. You may be able to divide resources equally in childhood, but your best efforts won’t succeed in shielding them from personal or physical crises. . . . Your heart will be broken a thousand times if you really expect to equalize your children’s happiness by striving to love them equally.
    Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)

    Not less are summer-mornings dear
    To every child they wake,
    And each with novel life his sphere
    Fills for his proper sake.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
