this is the normal one you're going to clone. a completely normal person and that's what i want to say. but how normal can someone really be who can lift up an endangered. in a road i'm annoyed with more a little bit more about. some other people how normal can someone be who is given the once world beating club liverpool a new lease of life. 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. perfectly legal we ask him what he has to say our exclusive interview with you going to close now with kickoff life. my old friend and fellow german i haven't met him in years but he hasn't changed. places so up up up up. i 1st interviewed him 12 years ago and. then again and became a legend in germany and now liverpool. when we 1st met and. mine's.

always something here and talking english what's the main difference from then to know. i am that least much older. i know that will get. the job changed completely and then it will be i. was in in mind. in the very beginning with a sponsor before absolutely everything wrong the football team we have 50 percent highland sporting director and if you go the club pretty much to decide on the mystery of the best way to love the job so if you have to do everything you nobody's really watching it because my no one of us interests in mind as i had to learn that when i learned the hard way and mean boss off what i did that time alone i have now i would say nearly 20 a system for you so i'm now really the manager of will be coaching stuff and.

i can't do that because i know what they all are doing because i did it by myself so that made me to. the time when i left dried up you see a lot on the stage but then i said all i am. or what i became. that you had and them that's exactly right like it is i learned everything there and could use that for the rest of my life i was. just as you can. use the using the same 2 it's used. here as to use my interest of 4 people so i was always very interesting people so didn't change the problems of the boys changed a lot because of social media and stuff like that much more pressure but no money some of the pressure increase incredibly so and that's all there very young.

every day it's like acting constantly in the glass house constantly because i was you whatever you do each mistake each failure it's a good thing it's a bad thing well there's if you're good you outstanding if you're not good you're the worst in the world so there's nothing there's not there's only black white there's no great color grays disappeared somehow. i was always a pretty calm person that's probably nobody can really measure that because i look quite differently now. but we have a ball for a 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. probably we spoke about that i'm not sure if years ago because i was a very young father i had to learn it pretty early to take care for young people. and that's what i'm still doing the boys on how younger than my sons are so i still

like it a lot and so that's it and that's. only players with world class potential not all of them will be both class but the world class potential and my job is to help them to become. the world class and that's the job to do and that's not done already 80 percent about football but the last 20 percent can be really decisive and that's my job. and don't mung he did the same he picked young players and family and very successful one. i always ask myself how did he choose his players. 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. you know it's too important that when he 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 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 job that needs obviously experience and i try that the players are very often surprised when i meet them 1st time that we don't talk at all about football because the thing is already done for me because you want to stay here because a very good footballer otherwise it would be a waste of time i'm sure they're meeting. a lot good football agree on this and then asking about our club or whatever so. you're talking with human life my friend terry. goddard and the good world. well it is always possible that that's possible no not really likely to be honest. everybody knows

what i mean when i. read that in christian but it's. not. i don't know i think you know i'm not that i'm not a christian whatever that said it's all just so people who live in the free world and we cannot. it's not my mission. talking off most people in liverpool it's either tied german and soliciting. to probably hasn't been any german before him that english people adore this much. you can call who is perfect for the people of new york clubs are doing a good job in. what. they experience absolutely it's. and this season might make dreams come true with liverpool at tight in the race for the league title and are in the champions league semifinal what will be more important for liverpool as a 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 i think she was there he willing to turn his league and then said of the after that or sunday i think we're in a premier league so. becoming a decision we have to play our best football in each game but if you are some people that's. very. obvious on some form of people it would be winning the league winning out we made waiting for the last 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 never ever can watch a liverpool game anymore in the stadium but would you say. there's my ticket. like 40 years going each home game and field road 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 what if they should both go of course his head does a lot to the right for last year because it was difficult the robots are always there because they go to germany fine so i'm already blessed that it was or a device they had it's unbelievable most of my colleagues have to work your 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 rapid rate 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'll 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 i'm probably. lost the last 6 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 when 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 who ever thought i need to show that somebody can do 6 miles in a row and still goes to the 7th 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 standing 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 you.

i think you heard you hear immediately that i'm from germany to be never get rid of all trauma 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 that just not possible so they were not surprised 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 a lot of good experiences they met some germans here in their madame in the mad american france where i would have made them as 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 that we all came closer to each other and i'd be so i would not show how many foreign people live in london to be honest it's pretty much like berlin even if you're speaking english anyway berlin it's the better language to speak in berlin than german so and also that's to be honest in london kids english 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. i don't like this area of thinking and that while there were other love most about it you would be called to 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 100 percent but i still love the idea when players go abroad but what would your advice be open just be open and learn language as weak as possible it helps a lot so the nice thing with english people is that the they no way that they don't speak pretty much any foreign language because they don't have to the whole world is speaking as a why should learn a foreign language for us to be always a bit of english but they are not a lot of drama but what they are able to really nice is if you speak 3 birds 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 as well but still helps

a lot if you learn the language has always been. with socializing and coming to getto so 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 whatever but it's learning it's actually learning from from life how they are why they are like these so it's for me it's really true. since i would think that. you know how to go and stop drinking coffee. i mean it would be if you would have asked me. 2 years ago if you want to you know sorry i don't need it so and it's just it's about it's a nice addition it's a different sort of money to make good and it's all it's all a little bit of it because his machine and i still can't understand why people think oh i had no confidence want to have you so for different reasons but that's only one little thing so i understand why buy by people are doing it to you to have teeth and they call. they call it for tea so it does make some sense but it's

just it what if you have 14 of them 14 nothing with one t.v. but it's 10 or so they call it and so on 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 100 percent yes yes yes yes yes so it's like this is a full english breakfast you could have offered me in germany 3 times we're going to said 5 times i don't want it so i don't want that and then you are now here under the you get it in germany but think one a day or you die of a heart attack if you die of a heart attack after one egg a day then all england collapse tomorrow because they have 5 eggs in the morning already. seen things special one. that's hosers the movie when you introduce to save a child see unlike club i don't want to describe myself the only thing i could. ask anybody in this room think. that i do want to

know so let me work i'm totally normal guy i 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. 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 is. when you came here you introduced us of us of a normal one and we were sitting in germany and laughing because we knew you and oh you. i am 100 percent but if you don't know what the others what i don't know i don't know but what do you look at 1st of all and i know that's how it is. life is very often this kind of marketing you have to be your own 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 will be only 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 that my english would be good enough so because of course 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 then like my sons actually but it was not that music guy so my english was kind of another press conference and we all know famous press conference was a lot of my peers and stuff like it was 1st time in new york and he don't want to be famous for that problem says the language my niece is a lady look my german is better and i have the. list. understandable english. i'm also a little bit lucky and can even if you know the american look at invention then i said what i said i was not prepared i said norman swan and that's how i see myself

that's not. i don't know how to say the english but it's not that i did i want people think he things he says is unknown but he knows he's special and i 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 it doesn't make me a special person it was in me only luck because 500 years ago with that i could 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 5 times more than i do and earn 4 percent of what i earn so i'm not a happy person i would be really crazy but i'm smart enough not to westmead that

not to think them all as i did 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 then through notice at any time that you may be a little more normal on misnomer than the others because you are different from the others i think. you are different from others no i have another skill and it's again pure luck i can't. so i can speak like a waterfall. and all 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 light camera i'm not getting nervous. so that keeps me completely calm in

a situation where 90 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 potential 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 and so important skill obviously is an important skill but again pure coincidence 500 years ago i would have cliff dance in front of the king probably. and all the rest. again and sleep together to st so i know you're a lucky guy 100 percent i've said a couple of times but it's really like that. the director's going to head off my school when i did a level and i want a sports price for my best friend's one science prize and. language wise and i got a spot for us funny so and then he said in front of all these other guys who got

there the night with the mike in his hand i hope it works all the football because it's not really worrying about you so i hope you never have thought i think the same but i do have to say that now in this they really can hear it so i knew i was lucky. people miss him in germany. the good old days spent dog surprised europe and german football was top of the heap. and what happened to german football since you went away ah. that's the explanation no blood no disease i only way there's a word 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 it's my decision i know. nothing really it's just after a long long spell of testing results big success there's

a little dip. in the development that can happen but i saw no it jumps in playing against holland after. you're going to be made if you would. 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 problems really sell out so there's always it should be life like this why should always the same country win 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 that's the real problem in germany and with international football like you repeatedly. it's only. 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 t.v. money so it's

a different system it's own the system it's not like it's not a club all in a season like we have it in germany and that makes life easier than you have just the top 6 in england would be top 6 yes to get a dog but i'm buying in germany as well would be in italy in spain about you know the i would be in that because it's just so good just really good football teams here here no there's not much you know the way can go you could be like the king of germany and coach someday in the national team or you could go to play on clubs like that do you have a picture to say it in the future no you don't do that no not at all nothing but interesting about about maybe. if i think about my future as a future when i stop working oh yeah it has been it's that because that should be a moment when i still have. enough energy to do things i have never time for so it should not be that i see it happen that i sit on the bench when i'm

70 or something like that for everybody not to really just of ok. a lot of things i've looked up the 1st part of my life was only a really good life but the 1st part of my life was i had no money and no time and then i had a bit more money it 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 a city and i see the stadium and the hotel and the street. i drive the bus that's it so that's the most pressure yeah i'm on a 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 this when i hope for the day 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 and to go with the song of the boys and branch of 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. squad automatic world to read we travel the world and really feel how high things that sound right i'm going to say no to start me never people and discuss football i am pretty serious in. the game it's going to go on. as a football pick up on you tube. 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 careers so far. thanks for watching and remember not to slack off in english class it's not which ones are in germany i think. 815 feet. sometimes one comes. through the other. ringback ringback ringback
