Rich clubs, where money doesn't matter... such clubs don't interest me.

Wenger is a great coach.

When I was at Madrid, I knew even by the December of that season that I would be sacked, and if they hadn't dismissed me, I would have resigned.

You need continuity at clubs.

A manager can never accept somebody at the top influencing his decisions about the team.

I played at the highest level, so I know what kind of things go through a player's mind and how he might behave, what patterns will crop up in the day-to-day routine.

When you become the manager of a leading club, there are so many situations you have to cope with. You have to deal with the people in charge of the club, the players, the media, the expectation... you have to deal with the whole environment around the club, and that is something you can find difficult.

I have watched and coached in the Spanish League.

The team that wins the Champions League is the one that is most united.

The game has progressed, but in the end, they are still people out on the pitch, people with different personalities and feelings.

Football has changed, but my style of leadership, my approach, hasn't.

I adore football, and if I do a job, I do it 100 per cent.

There are always surprises in the Champions League.

Some feel old at 45.

Age is a number and nothing more.

I thought 2013 was the end of my coaching career.

There are always cycles in football.

You need a really good mix between young and old, between experienced and hungry players.

The creed of Bayern has always been to never give up, always on, always higher, always more successful.

I do not like comparisons that much. Each team has its own inner life.

Bayern have always been quite successful in European competition, but the competition is not a wish concert: you always have to be fit.

Many alleged top players can and have still to learn.

Arjen does not need to play anymore to make money; he plays because he enjoys it.

Arjen does not have to say that he should do the exercises at 100 per cent; he does it anyway. You have to slow him down more. He is unique; he does everything for his job.
