00:00:00
It was an intense time. We had to win
00:00:02
football games, but all the rest was on
00:00:04
my plate as well. I need a break and you
00:00:07
cannot do that in that business. You
00:00:08
cannot say, "Give me a year. See you
00:00:10
later." So, it begs the question, do you
00:00:12
think you could ever go back and manage
00:00:14
Liverpool again?
00:00:18
It's possible. So, what would it take?
00:00:24
You changed a club. You changed the
00:00:26
city. And you arrived at a time when
00:00:27
clubs were in a period of dysfunction to
00:00:29
bring that club back to its glory. And
00:00:31
you do that over and over and over
00:00:33
again. How to win in a very decisive
00:00:36
moment. You have to be the best team.
00:00:38
And to be the best team, everybody has
00:00:40
to buy into that team and walk through
00:00:42
fire together.
00:00:43
How do I get people to walk through
00:00:44
fire? I better go back to the start.
00:00:47
Growing up, my mom was very caring. She
00:00:49
loved people. And my dad had
00:00:51
expectations. The problem was I was
00:00:53
absolutely useless in most of the
00:00:55
things. Even with football, my teammates
00:00:57
were better than me. And I thought I
00:00:59
only can get on that level from the
00:01:01
first until the last minute. I was a
00:01:02
warrior on the pitch. But it made me the
00:01:05
guy I am today. And so my team plays a
00:01:08
little bit more like a heavy metal band
00:01:09
because you have 90 minutes and there's
00:01:11
no guarantee to get anything. But the
00:01:14
only chance to get something is to give
00:01:16
you all. So you want to have the maximum
00:01:18
success. Don't waste time with holding
00:01:20
back.
00:01:21
I want to know why Manchester United
00:01:22
didn't.
00:01:23
No, they tried. But but there are some
00:01:25
reasons in that conversation which I
00:01:27
didn't like.
00:01:28
Arie slot coming in after you and didn't
00:01:30
change much.
00:01:30
That's super smart. Not changing much
00:01:32
and all of a sudden you win the league
00:01:34
by some distance.
00:01:35
But this year Liverpool have spent what
00:01:37
450 odd million. You never had a
00:01:38
transfer window like that.
00:01:40
Nobody ever told me that it's possible
00:01:42
that we can spend that.
00:01:43
You seem to always be successful. How
00:01:46
does someone succeed you?
00:01:47
You want to be able to become the best
00:01:49
team in England? You need to
