I dictate entirely how the team is prepared, and I am a hands-on coach; I love to be out there with the players taking the sessions.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

The analysis of statistics is a big part of the modern game, and it’s important as a modern manager to embrace areas that can help your team and players improve.

I must have just dreamed that about Liverpool playing 3-4-3. What do people think that was, a bit of luck? A British coach playing 3-4-3? A foreign coach doing that would be a tactical genius.

Even more important than statistics is then having the staff that can take the data and ensure it’s presented in a way that improves individuals and teams.

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.
