“I’m really a normal football manager.”

Fighting football, not serenity football – that is what I like.

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

Coaches will say that it’s not important for their team to run more, and they prefer to make games the right way.

What is Champions League level? I saw a lot of rubbish games at Champions League level.

The challenge is to stay cool enough to handle the pressure in the moment so that you can succeed in the future.

I’d be at home watching the games just on a normal TV, watching what I could and trying to figure out what we would be facing a few weeks later.

When I left Dortmund, I said it’s not important what people think when you come in but what they think when you leave.

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

That’s what you live for as a sportsman. You have to put up a fight.

Anyone can have a good day, but you have to be able to perform on a bad day.

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.

Every new truth has its birth-place in a manger, lives thirty years, is crucified, and then deified.

I am a sensitive writer, actor and director. Talking business disgusts me. If you want to talk business, call my disgusting personal manager.

Had I listened to my agent, I’d be running around in tights, climbing buildings and stuff.

Life is the same. It would be the same thing if I were still working at Starbucks, having to deal with a manager, and a shift manager. This is a job.

Every good leader is part manager and every good manager is part leader.

My manager introduced me to the ‘Rise to Honor’ team. I was curious about what it took to be involved in video games, a completely new form of entertainment to me.

Work should be personal. For all of us. Not just for the artist and entrepreneur. Work should have meaning for the accountant, the construction worker, the technologist, the manager and the clerk.

There’s a big difference between a decisive manager and a tyrant.
