Quotes

  • Listen, I am from Catalunya, you know. My education, my football education, comes from there. And I learn a lot here, I learn a lot in Germany, but my principles come from there. If I were born in Germany alongside Ralf Rangnick's ideas, Jurgen Klopp's ideas, whatever, probably I would do it I like this. But I feel the football the way I feel it and I cannot change it because they have success. Everyone has to do what they want.
  • Ten years is a lot of time and I think the club needs a new manager, new energy, these incredible players we have right now and start to write another chapter
  • Many memories - forget the titles, it's the memories. All of us. All the people here are extraordinary. Life is made of periods, we lived an incredible period. If I had energy I would stay here. A new person has to do this job.
