The money's there in England. They try to gather the best players. We do it differently here at Bayern. We have no investors, no owners.

Morality is very important. We have to be together.

There will always be cases where one player plays, and another doesn't.

I prefer the 4-2-3-1 formation and stick to it but have my own interpretations.

The expectation in Munich is always high, this expectation I have towards myself personally and to my players. I was aware of that when I signed with Bayern.

Morality is very important. We have to be together.

When you fall, you always have the opportunity to get up.

Playing for the national team is not the same as playing for your club.

It's not easy to score three goals in 70 minutes.

I can't play with 12 players.

There is only one Messi. No matter what I say, it's too little. You have to shower him with superlatives.

We need to be confident, but do not look back; look at what's coming.

To say a player is past it at 29, 30 isn't right.

A lot of players are naturally talented, but you also have to work to improve yourself.

A five-year contract is worth no more than a six-month contract these days; it's very concerning.

For me personally, Pep Guardiola is the best coach in the world.

Victories are always important.

You can't manage every footballer the same. Of course you'd love to, but it doesn't work like that. We're not robots.

We want to chase and seal the championship title. The decisive thing is to be at the top at the end of the season.

The players who play have to perform. If they don't, then they will be replaced. That has always been the case.
