Ronny Deila has lifted the lid on his time as Celtic manager, revealing the demands of the job caused him to experience anxiety attacks. The Norwegian, who succeeded Neil Lennon in 2014, led the Hoops to successive Scottish Premiership titles and one League Cup during his two-year spell at the club.But a failure to qualify for the Champions League group stage during his reign saw pressure mount on Deila and the 41-year-old stepped down as Celtic manager at the end of last season, with Brendan Rodgers replacing him. Deila told Norways NRK television channel: I could have a stressful thought like: We have to win this weekend. Then I would be soaked in sweat, my heart would be pounding and head aching. I could wake up at four in the morning and couldnt fall asleep again. Sky Sports Black Friday sale Upgrade to Sky Sports now and get 12 months half price! I almost got social anxiety, I was more passive. It took my freedom from me, the freedom to be myself. Then it became a question of values: can you do this for the rest of your life?Deila also admitted he underestimated the magnitude of the Celtic job after leaving Norwegian title winners Stromsgodset to take over from Lennon.But I would take the challenge at Celtic a thousand times again, said Deila, who is now in charge of Norwegian side Valerenga.With hindsight I see that I didnt have a chance to understand how big a club Celtic is.

The 13th leg ends in Tortona, where the Campionissimo died in 1960 and the next leg starts in Castellania, where Coppi was born in 1919.Stage 14 concludes with a climb to Oropa, where Pantani posted one of his more memorable victories in 1999.---DECISIVE DOLOMITESThe race will likely be decided in the Dolomites Range in the final week.Stage 16 figures to be one of the races toughest challenges. The stage begins with an ascent of the steep and narrow Mortirolo then the Stelvio is climbed both from the Italian and Swiss sides before a final descent into Bormio. At an altitude of 2,758 meters (9,050 feet), the Stelvios peak will represent the races highest point -- traditionally known as the Cima Coppi (Coppi peak).Stage 18 could be even tougher. While only 137 kilometers (85 miles) long, the races showcase stage will take the peloton over four major mountain passes -- Pordoi, Valparola, Gardena and Pinei.The next day features the fourth summit finish at Piancavallo, while the penultimate leg from Pordenone to Asiago includes a difficult climb to Monte Grappa -- the scene of fighting in both world wars.---Andrew Dampf on Twitter: www.twitter.com/asdampf NFL Jerseys From China Stitched Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys From China Jerseys From China Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
