A biography for Ralph Hasenhuttlhasn’t been written yet.
“If you want to be in front of Bayern, you have to play a perfect season.”
“You always have to reflect how you can become an awkward team to play against.”
“As a player I had a few idols but that's not really interesting any more. I was a striker and focusing on guys like Marco van Basten but as a coach I want to make my own footsteps.”
“I was always a little bit compared to Jurgen because my core of working is working against the ball.”
“I trained with Chelsea for two weeks under Glenn Hoddle when they were in the relegation zone - it was a long time ago. And I also trained for Bolton when I was a young player. I was very clear, very soon, that I was missing a lot for that level.”
“I can't take a view of the future of every player.”
“Jurgen has a very proactive way to play, he set marks in Germany with his kind of football and that really influenced my style.”
“I play the piano.”
“Roy Hodgson is a very good manager with a clear plan.”
“It's not about being happy, it's about being successful.”
“On the piano, I cover all styles. I turn to it for inspiration in sport, and whenever I need my rest.”
“To be honest helps you a lot to not waste time. It's also the way I help the players most. It doesn't matter if it is the captain or the last reserve player, I try to be honest.”
“If you want to be a part of a team I manage, it is important to put your ego to one side.”
“We are all ambitious but important for me first is to have a stable spine to the team.”
“I had not so much talent. I was a striker who could score, but running was not my main goal.”
“I played until 37-years-old and my last three or four years I learnt the most.”
“I don't know, at times I run a bit too far onto the pitch. But that's only in exceptional circumstances, and Jurgen does it too when a goal is scored!”
“I want to be my own character.”
