00:00It will be the first time I will meet him on Saturday and of course I'm looking forward

00:07to meet him because, like I said, I think he's one of the best managers in the world.

00:13His achievements in the past are impressive but, like I said, it's not a game between

00:19me and him.

00:20In the end, it's a football game for Brighton or Wembley and we want to win this football

00:24game so it's nice to meet him but it would be much nicer to meet him and to beat him.

00:32Of course I followed him because he was also coach of the club I played for a long time,

00:40so for Bayern Munich, and I saw him coaching, I saw his achievements in Germany already

00:46so of course maybe you follow him more than other coaches and, like I said, he has a big

00:53impact or he had already a big impact in Germany when he integrated the inverted full

00:59back so I think it was his idea what he implanted in Germany the first time.

01:05That's why he's a role model for sure but in the end you always have to go your own

01:11way and you always have to keep pushing your own style of play and keep trying to develop

01:17your own things, your own elements, but in the end I would be stubborn if I wouldn't

01:23look at his games and his achievements in the past.
