I think I’ve proven I can build a team that plays a way of football that excites and challenges at the top end of the table.

When you’ve got the ball 65-70% of the time, it’s a football death for the other team…It’s death by football.

Status does not matter. It is what you are like as a player. It doesn’t matter how much money you have come for. That doesn’t matter to me. I will play a 17-year-old if he fights and he has quality. It is quite easy.

I enjoy my work. The reason I worked so hard all my life is because I want to be making big decisions and managing at the very highest level.

I’ve always been one to arrive early for work; preparation is a big part of how I work, and I like to be in my office going through plans for the upcoming training sessions or meetings I have.

Of course, as manager, the selection of the team is very much one of the biggest responsibilities I personally take, but I come to that decision thanks to advice and support of the people around me.

I think football management has obviously changed and evolved in terms of practices and methods, but I would say the values we strive to hold are the same as great men like Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley.

Football Men Thinking
The quality of people you have around you as a manager is so vital. There are various factors that influence that process; fitness, form and the tactical approach to your opponent are all areas I review on a daily basis.

I don’t see coach job stressful, I really don’t. Of course, there is pressure and expectation, but I wouldn’t necessarily equate that with stress.

If you give a bad player time, he can play. If you give a good player time, he can kill you.

I know how it goes. Six or seven months ago I was the manager of the year and I was going to be this and that, tactically this and tactically that, and now, because we have lost two world-class players, I am useless. But I accept that.

I will leave no stone unturned in my quest – and that quest will be relentless – to try and get Liverpool back on the map again as a successful football club.
