Quotes
eeditIn wirds o some teammates an famous players an Bernabé Ferreyra hissel:[4]
| “ | My brithers persistit in tellin me A haed tae be the stranger shuiter in toun. They made me kick the baw fro fore-nuin tae efternuin, ivery day. They uised tae encourage me shoutin: 'Harder, even harder!' | ” |
| “ | A prefer tae retire frae fitbaw afore fitbaw retires frae me | ” |
| “ | 'So you are "La Fiera" (The Fierce): A wantit tae meet you', said Carlos Gardel tae Ferreyra, who answered: 'Nae, maister, it is you who are "La Fiera" when singin' | ” |
| “ | Bernabé was an exceptional player: his rivals had to work on him twice as much as with other players. For all of us, his teammates, he made things easier. But as a man, he was valued more. Bernabé earned as much money as he wanted but he was not concerned with keeping it. He gave other people a lot of money, without asking for anything in return. When he shook your hand, you could be sure that you had a friend for the rest of your life .(José Manuel Moreno) | ” |
