Coach

My first win feels better than a draw!

I left Mainz after 18 years and thought, 'Next time, I will work with a little less of my heart.' I said that because we all cried for a week. The city gave us a goodbye party, and it lasted a week.

There is a place in the net where the keeper cannot reach the ball.

I didn't take many penalties, but I never missed one.

As Dortmund manager, I lived in a street, and my two neighbours were Schalke fans. They showed it every day, flying flags!

I have only one understanding of development and of making success, and that's by going step by step.

Coaches will say that it's not important for their team to run more, and they prefer to make games the right way. I want to make games only the right way and run 10 km more.

I've met some Evertonians in the street, and they've been friendly. I've had taxi drivers who have been Everton fans. They've been really nice.

In England, you have stadiums in the middle of the city.

I don't feel too much pressure. I only see an opportunity.

In London, you'll be walking around and, 'Oh, there's the ground.' Every area of the city has a Premier League club. They all survive; they all exist with enough money, and that's good.

For me, it's enough that I have the first and last word.

Players who are not from the U.K. have to get used to the winds. I have to adapt my style as a result as well. Often, you are forced to keep things simple.

To be successful, you need results in a row. You can't win, lose, win, lose.

The wind can be quite extreme in England. We are not familiar with that in Germany, and you have to keep things simple.

It is my job to help the players react better.

Only stupid people are changed by success.

When you create circumstances together, when you try everything, then you can lose. But you need to show the importance.

The more players I have, the more difficult choices there are for me, but the better it is for LFC.

My biggest skill is common sense. I understand life.
