Ronald Koeman

“When I was a player it was not normal that I would cook at home but now that I have more time, I do sometimes. I like it, I like to cook and maybe sometime I would like to have some lessons.”

“The best player to compare to Aguero is Romario.”

“We have to be confident. If we are not you can't win.”

“I was always most of the time working in clubs as player and coach to win titles.”

“That's the nicest part of football; you can't do everything to stop a player.”

“I know what it is like when a player has big ambitions.”

“A new project can offer you a new challenge.”

“Lukaku sees football and lives for his game the way I think a top player should live for it.”

“Coaching Netherlands remains one of my ambitions.”

“Manchester United are always a team that try to play football, try to play football from the back.”

“In football, as in life, as in business, everything can be talked about and discussed.”

“His potential is greater and higher than Everton as a final destination. If Romelu was to play at Everton until the end of his career I know he has left something behind.”

“It's always important with a young one in your team that he needs to be comfortable in the position he plays.”

“From what I saw in Spain and Germany most of the teams drop back and then they have all of the time to build up and have the movements. In the Premier League it is more physical and about set plays. It is more difficult.”

“I like young players when they are still open to learn and behave normally, not driving a Porsche after three matches in the first team.”

“The Europa League is a different calibre than the Champions League.”

“I've coached in Holland, Portugal and Spain and not only won trophies each time, but taken sides to the latter stages of the Champions League.”

“It's all about the qualities of the players. The better the players, the easier it is for the manager.”
