Jupp Heynckes
Football is business. It's all about being quick, quick, quick - nobody has any patience nowadays. But then again, that is how things are in normal life, away from football.Collection: Patience
Even Gerd Muller, the top scorer in our nation's history, was not perfect.
You should never surrender, never give up.
I respect Cristiano Ronaldo. He has had a superb career.
Please respect me and my work.
I don't like the word 'revenge' so much in football.
I'm keeping myself busy with hobbies and sport. I have my animals and a huge garden.
The way Cristiano Ronaldo plays is incredible.
I know Spain football very well, because I've always been interested in it, even after I left Spain.
You cannot play the position Kroos plays in defensive midfield besides Luka Modric better than he does.
It's not very wise to keep a player who has just one year left on his contract and really wants to leave.
The perfect striker does not exist.
Robert Lewandowski is a player who plays in front of the opposing goal, especially with his back to the opponent. He is always attacked, and this is one of the big strength of a striker who plays in this position.
Cristiano Ronaldo is a player who often plays on the left side and moves between the lines.
I regard Buffon as one of the best goalkeepers in the history of football. He is a legend for me, a fantastic man, and an excellent goalkeeper.
I have many friends in Madrid and, therefore, know that they have a lot of respect for Bayern.
If you are at Bayern and lose to Dortmund, it is common that the media voices criticism.
A fully fit Arjen is capable of settling a game by himself.
I think that the Bayern coach is the second hardest job in Germany after the Chancellor.
Arsene Wenger has not just brought success to Arsenal. He is a very creative manager, producing almost fantasy football.
German football is very different to football in South America.
A pro at Bayern doesn't merely have to play football; he has a range of other appointments on behalf of the club. It all drains your energy.
I was always a great admirer of Zizou the player, but now I also admire him as a coach. I like how calm he is. This shows me that he's not showcasing for the public or the camera. He's a top trainer.
Every player who plays at Bayern Munich knows that Bayern Munich is a particularly special club. Whenever we lose, then it is lashed onto almost immediately by the media, regardless whether it is a friendly or losing the away game in a Champions League tie 1-0.
For me, it is important that your team is allowed to have ups and downs in form.
I never enjoyed being taken off as a striker.
I know myself that we goalscorers are selfish and always thinking about our goalscoring ratio.
Football has gone off the rails. It's lost its spirit.
I have eight years of experience in Spain.
Every team has a player like Marco Reus who can make the difference.
Bayern are so dominant that other teams aim for us.
It is difficult to play a team with great morale and passion.
I have no ambition to become Germany coach.
The personal interests of the individual players must be put aside.
You can play just as offensively with one striker as with two.
For me, as a coach, it is important to put together a team that not only blends but finds the right balance between defence and offence.
What is the definition of the 'between player'? I have never heard of it, and I have been around for quite a few years.
For me, there are no 'between players' in football. For me, there are clear positions and clear characteristics for all players.
A midfielder should be able to play several positions.
You have to respect the opponent as much as possible.
I'm, in general, an advocate of moderate ticket prices.
We need the fans.
Games without atmosphere are bad for football.
A coach must be at one with his players.
You can never make the mistake of underestimating an opponent, especially in the Champions League.
I always like to remember the year 2008, when we had an amazing offer from Chelsea for Franck Ribery. From that day on, the whole world of football knew nobody can buy a Bayern Munich player against the will of Bayern Munich.
Bayern know how to celebrate on a big scale.
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.
Arjen does not need to play anymore to make money; he plays because he enjoys it.
I appreciate Thomas Tuchel. He made his way through the ranks at Mainz from the youth teams.
