If I get the chance to coach Netherlands, I would like to take that chance.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
In football a championship team is never bought, it's built with time and patience.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
That's the nicest part of football; you can't do everything to stop a player.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
Old Trafford is not really intimidating, no. I think the Man United fans are always behind the team and it's a fantastic place to play football.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
Manchester United are always a team that try to play football, try to play football from the back.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
Normally I keep criticism of my players inside but sometimes people need to know what the manager is thinking.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I like to play attacking football, but I think the big difference is that we expect a lot more from our strikers, to do more pressing and to keep compact. We like to play a high line defensively and press the ball.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
The Premier League is different. Sometimes the Bournemouth game can be more difficult than Liverpool or Chelsea.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I've coached in Holland, Portugal and Spain and not only won trophies each time, but taken sides to the latter stages of the Champions League.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
One of the things I'd bring to Villa if I was in charge is the idea that winning is important in football, but winning while playing offensive football is the best of all.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I love English football because of its brilliant atmosphere, intensity of the competition and the culture of respect that fans and players have for the game.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
In Holland we have always viewed Villa as an important club with a tradition of being powerful in Europe when I was younger, so I would be very interested in managing them if the job was offered to me.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
It's easy to give your opinion in front of the television without any responsibility.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
What I don't like too much really is individual comments about the performances of the players after the game.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
If you win games you will have good possibilities to maybe play in Europe, you never know.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I don't speak about rumours every day in the press, because it's not necessary to tell everybody the same answer.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
When you have Van Gaal in charge, it is a fact that there is fear in his team. The players have a fear for mister Van Gaal. That is not always good.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
There are so many other examples in the Premier League of players who are the best in their country and make a move because they are really ready for a level higher. If they come to the English top flight, it turns out they need a period to adjust in terms of pace, aggressiveness and physicality, especially as a midfielder.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
You need luck, you need your key players, you need to be in the best shape, you need all of that to be champions.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
The entire world knows what I have with Barcelona and what Barcelona have with Ronald Koeman, so if I could become Barcelona coach one day, I would be delighted.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I'm always a big advocate for adapting to your new team, your new country and your new team-mates.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I like young players when they are still open to learn and behave normally, not driving a Porsche after three matches in the first team.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I managed Zlatan when he was young and sometimes also difficult! But, okay, that is normal.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I like to be in Europe - it's important for our experience. It's good for the club, the players and the fans.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
It is always difficult when there is a lack of confidence and a lack of belief but it can be good for me to see the reaction of the team in a difficult time.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
Full compliments to everybody in Southampton because the support of the fans was amazing and the spirit and the belief of the players, it's very enjoyable for the manager.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I see differences in how I like to work with young players and how I like to give young players a chance maybe more than English managers.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
Lukaku sees football and lives for his game the way I think a top player should live for it.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
It's not only Van Dijk who can stop Ronaldo. But Ronaldo is good enough to create against really good defenders.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
Daley Blind, Georginio Wijnaldum and Kevin Strootman too. They are examples of how you should behave as a top player.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
Within 24 hours of my departure from Everton, I had already received the first offer. Then they kept coming, but I keep it all away from me.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I know myself that I am a manager who really gives young players a chance when they deserve it.
Quote by -Ronald Koeman
I think it's normal that you will lose players if you don't play every season in the Champions League, because that's the intention for every player to be part of that.
