“I never wanted to become a coach.”
“Players need trust, they are human beings and only in comfortable surroundings will you bring better performances. We try always to create situations where the players feel comfortable.”
“You have to have a clear philosophy as a club, how you want to play, the work ethic, the atmosphere.”
“I like situations when everything seems against you but we will have a massive support and the fans can carry us.”
“My door is open 24 hours. We can discuss things - I don't think I'm a magician or the only guy who knows anything about football.”
“My deep belief in one word? Dominance.”
“I don't want to be like a flag in the wind one day like this and one day like the other, praying for a few points. Sometimes at this level we have to, sadly, work within this pressure in your day to day work, and that's quite normal.”
“Pep Guardiola, when he was at Bayern Munich, he was able to reply in German in his first press conference.”
“I always look for a challenge. Maybe it's part of my mentality to create something special.”
“To be successful you have to find a good balance between offence and defence, to work without the ball, but our main tactic is to work with the ball, to be in possession.”
“When you want to be a good coach you have to have the full package, that's for sure. I don't believe that you always have to punish or instil fear into players like the old days.”
