12:30 pm
earth the home for saving googling genius tell stories of creative people and innovative projects around the world ideas to protect the climate and boost green energy solutions by global ideas being one series of global three thousand on t.w. and online. so i'm a totally normal guy i'm a normal one maybe if you want to know is. this is hey in the normal one you're going to clone. a completely normal person and that's what i want to say that day it's on t.v. . but how normal can someone really be who can lift up an endangered dormant and
12:31 pm
leap into two titles in a row. i'm in orbit more a little bit more about football than. some other people how normal can someone be who has given the ones world beating club liverpool a new lease of life. in his room think a. little too want to know. how normal can someone be who can lead to different teams to the champions league final and can compete for the premier league title and can be more well liked in england than any german ever before. being focused perfectly legal we asked him what he has to say our exclusive interview with you going to club now with kick off life. my old friend and fellow german i. i've met him in years but he hasn't changed and
12:32 pm
i can speak like a waterfall if you speak three words english english person makes sense of. the top sixteen would be top six he's lame brain. i first interviewed him twenty five years ago in mind. then again and he became a legend in germany and now which setting in liverpool. when we first met in the minds. of no one is sitting here and talking english what's the main difference from then to know. i am at least. a job change completely and. i was in in mind. in the very beginning responsible for absolutely everything wrong the football team
12:33 pm
we had fifty percent highland sporting director. of the club pretty much to decide on the mystery of the best way to learn which opens if you have to do everything you know but it's really watching in people's mind there was interest in mind as i had to learn. the hard way i mean. what i did that time alone i have now i would say nearly twenty assistant for so i'm no really the manager of the coaching staff and. i can't do that because i know what they're all doing because it is by myself so that made me to. the time when i left. a lot on the stage that said all i am. or what i became. that you happen and that's exactly like it is i learned everything they could use that for the rest of my life.
12:34 pm
well i am still using the same. here but still use my interest of full people so i was always very interested in people so didn't change the problems of the boys changed a lot because of social media and stuff like that much more pressure my money's of off the pressure increase incredibly so and that's all there very young and. just every day it's like acting constantly in a glass house constantly because i was easy whatever you do each mistake each failure it's good thing it's a bad thing the world all this if you're good you outstanding if you're not good you are the worst in the world so there's nothing there's not there's only black white is no great color grays disappeared somehow. i was always a pretty calm person that's probably nobody can really imagine that because i look
12:35 pm
quite differently and have been a bunch of bull but we have a vote in football game it's true. that in normal things of life i'm completely calm and now meanwhile i'm much more experienced than i was that time but. i said probably we spoke about that on the truth a few years ago because i was a very young father i had to learn it pretty early to take care for young people and i learned them and that's what i'm still doing the boys on how younger than my sons are so i still like you a lot so that's it and that's. only players with world class potential not all of them will be both class but the class potential and my job is to help them to become brady broke last and that's that's the job to do and that's not to date done already eighty percent about football but the last twenty percent can be really decisive and that's my job. and don't mind he
12:36 pm
did the same he picked young players and build a family very successful one. i always ask myself how did you choose this play is. how do you do it. do you do it by instinct more by instinct on my brain or is there something in between like bulk of our chest and. it depends. it's too important i want to can speak my belly that's too important other things it's too expensive let me say it's too expensive the people trust me a lot and so i cannot spend millions but i think it. could work if you sign a player you have to know as much as possible it's easy to find a good football player to know him as a person. or learning about him as a person it's not that easy to me it's a pretty experience and i tried players are very often surprised when i meet them
12:37 pm
first time that we don't talk at all about football because the thing is already done for me because you want to sit here because you're very good football otherwise it would be a waste of time over there me. not good football to be honest and then asking about our club or whatever so. you're talking with some life. god and the good world. but it was possible that it's possible not not really likely to be honest. everybody knows meanwhile that i'm really the christian but it's. not. i don't know because you know. i'm not a christian whatever the it's all just so people live in a free world and we cannot. it's not my mission. talking of belief most people in liverpool see the tide german as the messiah. they're probably
12:38 pm
hasn't been any german before him that english people adored this much. you can call who is perfect for the people of new york cops are doing a good job it. would be good training or experience absolutely brilliant. and this season might make dreams come true liverpool are tight in the race for the league title and are in the champions league semifinal what would be impossible for liverpool at the cup winning the premier league a winning the champions league very famous question actually. on friday night it's winning the premier league. and then on wednesday when the germans league then on sunday said that they were needed from a link to use the healing to the terms league and then said of the after that or sunday i think we have probably so. become a good decision we have to play our best football in each game but if you are some people that's. very. obvious on so from the people it would be winning the league
12:39 pm
we have examined waiting for a lot yeah but is it the kind of question people around us are just there to ask people around the stadium if you the prize for winning the league this year would be that you can watch a liverpool game anymore in the stadium or would you say. there's my ticket. like forty years going each home game and field rolled what's a game that shows how much it means so easy easy answer. but what can we do and i'll be on the terms of semifinal i think we should still try. last year you were very close to winning the tempest. do you think. this game have. already forgotten or is that much of a shock both though of course he's had does a lot to write for last year because it was difficult because it's always difficult to go to terms of fun so i'm already blessed that it was or a device they had it's unbelievable most of my colleagues have to be
12:40 pm
a whole life with all they have a really good coaches don't have the teams i had and i don't have the experience i had to face by a meeting or am afraid which i was the final it's a really interesting experience where i was losing it is a very interesting experience as well not something you need but it's like a very very strong medicine which you actually want. but if you take it it still can help and that's actually how we took it. you know if you try it again if it's possible of course but it's like this the world out there is like this if i mean well probably. i lost the last six finals i was in. that didn't make me a broken person or whatever so for me life is tried and tried again and tried again if only if only to win i was allowed to survive then we all have to go so i really think it's not about winning and so i'll try that if that's if that's the the god whoever thought i need to show that somebody can do six finals in
12:41 pm
a row and still goes to the seventh and i'm the perfect person for that that's all it is. i don't know who decided it but. obviously a funny guy. even having lost some finals he still everybody's darling in england improving germany's image abroad he's now been nominated to become the german football ambassador. people surprised when i met you and learned that his german. i think you heard you hear immediately that i'm from germany to be never get rid of all drama next and it says a day they tell us that we have the german is a really hard language and for us it's like the thing which is being slang isn't so soft and i could and never will will be able to speak like that so that's just not possible so that i'm not surprised that i'm sure because they hear it immediately but of course it's you you realize that it's actually a time where people when they think about joining
12:42 pm
a lot of good experiences they met some germans here in their madame in the mad american france where i would imagine was all good people so it's a good time actually for your it doesn't look like with all the breaks and things around but it's actually the time we had in the european union helped obviously the ball came closer to each other and then be so i was not sure how many foreign people live in london to be honest it's pretty much like berlin if you if you speak english and you and berlin by the language you speak in berlin then german so and also that to be honest in london because in these of course as well but it's the same from all over the world they come together and that's what what i really love . don't like this area of thinking and that's where the other love most about you would be could travel wherever we wanted and needed a passport but actually didn't have to show it i know that it's not always that easy one hundred percent but i still love the idea when players go abroad but what would your advice be open just be open and being beamed learn language as weak as
12:43 pm
possible it helps a lot so the nice thing with english people is that the they no way that they don't speak very much any foreign language because they don't have to the whole world is being used why should learn a foreign language for us to be always a bit english but they are not a lot of drama but what they are able to really nice is if you speak three boats english english person makes a sentence of it so they want to understand you it's really like oh yeah i know what you mean and then they help you so but still helps a lot if you follow the language has always been have for socializing and in coming to ghettos it's brilliant but on top of that just be open and really learn and learn this maybe for young people especially sounds like a negative birth because it means a reading a book or whatever but it's learning it's actually learning from from life how they are why they are like this which for me is related to. since i would think that.
12:44 pm
you know how to go and stop drinking coffee. i mean it would be if you would have asked me. two years ago if you want to t.s.a. i'm not you know sorry i don't need it so and it's just it's about it's a nice addition is a different sort of money to make good and it's all it's all lucrative because his machine and i still can't understand why people think of i had no confidence while the half year or so for different reasons but does only one little thing so i understand it bye bye bye people are doing it here to have tea time they call. they call it forty so this makes no sense but it's just it what if you're fourteen and fourteen nothing with on t.v. but it's dinner so they call it installed so little things would you only understand really when you live there because you don't find it in any books so you're quite good integrated with the one hundred percent yes yes yes yes yes so it's a this is a full english breakfast you could have offered me in germany three times we're going to said five times i don't want it so i don't want that and then you are now
12:45 pm
here under the you get it in germany bit think of one egg a day or you die of a heart attack if you die of a heart attack after one egg a day then all in the collapse tomorrow because they have five eggs in the morning already. seen them a special one. that's jose moving in you introduced himself to change see unlike club i don't want to describe myself the only thing i could say. ask anybody this room think. that i do want to know so let me work i mean totally normal guy came from black forest. and my mother maybe sit in front of the television and watch this press conference and said no word i'm still no joke but he's very proud she's very proud so i'm a totally normal guy i'm the normal one maybe if you want to do this. when you came here you were introduced to save us of a normal one and we were sitting in germany and laughing because we knew you and oh
12:46 pm
you. i am one hundred percent but if you don't know what i'll be honest i don't know i don't know this is what we look at first of all and i know that's how it is. life is very often this kind of marketing you have to be on marketing business like you have to sell yourself stuff like that that means you have to prepared for things like a press conference or whatever i was and. we all knew the only thing i know about myself is read that i can react pretty spontaneous so because my whole life is my preparation for what they feel as long as i talk about football i'm always prepared because i think so much about it it's strange. and the press conference my only worry was that i did them the main dish would be good enough so he doesn't because i have no real english skills apart from i'm not the generation grown up of ok we could have heard a lot of music and learning english by that like my son's that actually but i was not a music guy so my english was kind of another press conference and we all know famous
12:47 pm
press conference with a lot of my peers and stuff i guess first time into your going to you don't want to be famous for that problem says the language my niece is a lady look my german is better and i haven't the least i can list. understandable english. i'm also a little bit lucky and can even if you know the american look at championship then i said what i said i was not prepared i said the normal one and that's how i see myself that's not. i don't know how to say things but it's not that i did i want people think he things he says is annoying but he knows he's a special whatever that's not like this i'm completely because i think about myself as a complete a normal person i have so many questions still much more than answers means how can it could i be special how could i be exceptional so i know a bit more a little bit more about football than. some other people that's true that doesn't
12:48 pm
make me a special person is holding me only luck because five hundred years ago with that i could have i would have slept in the street so with that knowledge and i'm a really lucky person that my best skill is needed somehow. and that's what i appreciate every single day i know hockey coaches they work i work a lot they work five times more than i do and earn four percent of what i earn so i'm not a happy person i would be really crazy but i'm smart enough not to overestimate that not to think them all and so i think because it's strange it's just football so. for my how i see me i have a completely normal person and that's what i want to say that day and now it's on a teacup. but been through notice at any time that you may be a little more normal a misnomer than the others because you are different from the other side what am i
12:49 pm
different from others no i have another skill and it's again pure luck and i can't . see it so i can speak like a waterfall so i'm not worrying about what people think that's true that's true thank you so i'm not yeah absolutely pure gift i know that there's a red leather camera i'm not going to go it was. so that keeps me completely calm in a situation where ninety percent all day i get nervous that makes me different it's a pure coincidence and a pure skill i have nothing i didn't teach myself in that i didn't try to get a target it will be like this completely not it's a pure time so how could i be proud on a tell it so but in the roll out there where the outside view on you is really important it's an important skill. obviously it's an important skill but again pure
12:50 pm
coincidence five hundred years ago i would do of course dance in front of the king probably. and all the rest. of the sleeves get to the street so i know you're a lucky guy one hundred percent i said a couple of times but it's really like that. the director's going to head off my school and i did a level and i want to sports price for my best friends one science prize and. language wise and i got a spot for as funny so and then he said in front of all these other guys who got eleven i'd with mike in his hand i hope it works all the football because if not i'm really worried about you so i hope you know then i thought ok i think the same by the way you have to say that now in this that i really can hear it so i knew i was lucky. people missed him in germany. the good old days spent dogman surprised europe and german football was top of the heap.
12:51 pm
and what happened to german football since you went away ha ha that's the explanation no but you know since i went away there's a word i like that so sorry no it's not it's of course nothing really you went to the place you could put it like that. yeah small decision and no. nothing really it's just after a long long spell of fantastic results big success there's a little dip. in the development that can happen but i saw no a jump in playing against holland after. your bit of many food on the hard decisions to be honest but it was full of skills full of talent full of you with full of joy and all that stuff was a really really good team and. i thought if that's if these are problems then no problem. really so. it's always it should be life like this why should always the
12:52 pm
same country with everything why should always the same team we know everything so there are moments when you have a high in moments when you have rather low if you learn of it then everything is fine and there's no real problem in germany and with international football like you repeatedly german city. this discussion we have already for a couple of years in germany always when the teams are not that successful it's the same. we have to admit just sitting there is more money around that's the truth because of the money so it's a different system it's all a system it's not like it's not a club although a station like we have it in germany and that makes life easier then be have just the top six in england would be top six yes to get a dog and buying in germany as well would be in italy in spain about what you know there would be in that because they're just so good just really good football teams here here no there's not much you weigh can go you could be like the king of
12:53 pm
germany and coach someday the national team could go to play on clubs like that do you have ever pictured yourself in the future no you don't do that no not at all nothing interesting about about maybe. if i think about my future as a future when i stop working oh yeah it has been a bit is that because that should be a moment when i still have. enough energy to do. things i have never time for so i should not be that i seem to be you know what happened i sit on the bench when i'm seventy or something like that everyone has really pissed off working off of a lot of things i did look the first part of my life had only had a really good life but the first part of my life was i had no money and no time and then i had a bit more money at immediate no time anymore and i have the money but absolutely no time so it means i didn't see anything of the world if i see you see the need and i see the stadium and the hotel and the street we drive the bus that's
12:54 pm
it so i miss the most precious yeah i'm pretty. pretty famous rather than whole face so i cannot go to a lot of places without signing thousands of autographs what makes this will probably be a problem for me because i'm most of the time tie up if i'm not working so but it's like that's what i hope for today when i'm long enough out of the business people don't recognize me the streets anymore and then i go and see the world that's a plan actually together with. the boys and ranch i want to try as they're going to have no problem but that's it. thank you very much but. did you know kick off is now on you tube with the world of football. here in a quad core world to rid the world can really feel how high the
12:55 pm
faces are running i'm going to say no to stun guns and never people because i am just. i am pretty serious of. the game. is a football pick up on you tube. it's here. it's not so important what people think when you come in it's much more important what people think when you leave don't worry he's not going anywhere yet but we'll leave you with some of our favorite memories from his long and successful career so far.
