Even Gerd Muller, the top scorer in our nation's history, was not perfect.
Jupp Heynckes
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.
You cannot underestimate any team that has qualified for a semi-final.
I wish Pep Guardiola the best. I rate him.
I never enjoyed being taken off as a striker.
The perfect striker does not exist.

It's very interesting to observe how highly the Bundesliga is spoken of abroad, from the overall quality to the stadiums, the family-friendly atmosphere, and the football itself.
Arsene Wenger has not just brought success to Arsenal. He is a very creative manager, producing almost fantasy football.

I don't like the word 'revenge' so much in football.
You cannot play the position Kroos plays in defensive midfield besides Luka Modric better than he does.
Do you think that a Franck Ribery can always expect to play? No. When he is not on form, he will not play.
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.
I alone will decide when I'm retiring.
What is the definition of the 'between player'? I have never heard of it, and I have been around for quite a few years.
Any opponent can be a stumbling block.

Our standards at Bayern are extremely high, with every training session at very high intensity.
I'm keeping myself busy with hobbies and sport. I have my animals and a huge garden.
The way Cristiano Ronaldo plays is incredible.
Please respect me and my work.
I know Spain football very well, because I've always been interested in it, even after I left Spain.
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.
