Coach

Yes, it is one of my ultimate aims - it is the ultimate sense of football: to make the people happy, to let them live some emotions that you usually can't get.

Bad performances can happen and are not that serious - even with new players. You can't, say, sell him, get a new one.

In England, football is a big thing to talk about, but Liverpool, it's a special place. You feel it when you make your first step.

I love football and the intensity of football in Liverpool, this is what is very good for me.

We all started playing football against our best friends, and I can't remember a moment where, because it was my best friend, I did not want to win against him.

Derbies are always difficult to play because you have to handle the pressure. There's no advantage or disadvantage for either side.

I was a fighting machine with a will of iron.

Football is a game you cannot play without making mistakes.

We don't want people to leave the stadium until the game finishes.

The best football is always about expression of emotion. Always.

Liverpool is a club with a big, big, big history, and all the clubs in the world have a big history if the present is not too successful. If you have never had success, then nobody knows how it is, but in Liverpool, everybody knows how it was.

The only thing I can say is that I like people; I like human beings with their faults and with their strengths.

The challenge is to stay cool enough to handle the pressure in the moment so that you can succeed in the future.

The Premier League is one of the most difficult in the world. There's five, six, or seven clubs that can be the champions. Only one can win, and all the others are disappointed and live in the middle of disaster.

Winning the title in England is the biggest challenge of them all.

Fighting football, not serenity football - that is what I like.

It needs time. Nobody wants to hear it, but that's the truth: if you want to have success in the future, you have to be ready to work now.

I am a very emotional guy. What I love, I do with all I have.

My problem is I am Christian, so I think other people must have success, too; it's not about me.

When we have the ball, the other team has to run. The most important thing is for the players to be prepared to be a little bit wild.
