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

Perhaps there are a few more sprints. But there is a different style of football here, partially due to the weather.

I’m an absolutely normal guy.

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.

I’m pretty positive, optimistic, so I always expect the best.

I was a very average player and became a trainer in Germany with a special club.

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.

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

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

If you watch me during the game, I celebrate when we press the ball and it goes out.

The English game is not faster than the German game.

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

I don’t think I’m an unlucky person.

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 always thought about working in England because of the kind of football, the intensity of football. Liverpool was first choice.

Bayern want a decade of success like Barca. That’s OK if you have the money because it increases the possibility of success. But it’s not guaranteed.

The intensity of the football and how the people live football in Liverpool – it is not a usual.

Your circumstances are 100% your fault.

The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings.

Our worst fault is our preoccupation with the faults of others.

It’s beautiful to find beauty in others but when it comes to you, you ending up finding only faults.

If you limit your actions in life to things that nobody can possibly find fault with, you will not do much!

My only fault is that I don’t realize how great I really am.

It’s not your fault you were born into a poor family or country.

With all its faults, the American political system is the freest and most democratic in the world.
