Even when I went to Aston Villa, it was very important that I was not in competition with Manchester United.
I'm not going to another club to hurt Liverpool.
Manchester is the same as Milan. The weather is the same, and you have two big clubs fighting against each other.
I never hid my move to Real Madrid was almost done... my fate changed, and I arrived at Barcelona instead.
The best managers out there at the moment are Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho but they are at other clubs - Real Madrid and Barcelona.
The national team should unite under one flag, leaving out the club stories.
Norm Smith personally came and signed me up to the Melbourne Football Club. The fact that I then played cricket for Melbourne Cricket Club - the footy club didn't like it that much.
As a manager, you know you're going to take the brickbats from other clubs and their fans. But I do enjoy making my own fans happy.
I am never going to be manager of Barcelona or Arsenal because I am so identified with Tottenham and Espanyol.
Join the club. (to Robbie Fowler after the striker missed a penalty against Middlesbrough that cost Man City a European place)
Chelsea is a big club with fantastic players; every manager wants to coach a such a big team. But I would never take that job, in respect for my former team at Liverpool, no matter what.
Winning one league title at Roma, to me, is worth winning 10 at Juventus or Real Madrid.
As Dortmund manager, I lived in a street, and my two neighbours were Schalke fans. They showed it every day, flying flags!
I don't detest Arsenal because of the way Wenger treated me.
I was brought up to not like Man United.
Barca are the favourites because they have a better team and have the best player in the world, who is Messi.
Whether people like it or not, you have to say the Old Firm are a major part of Scottish football. I know there is a lot of resentment from other clubs about that, but it's a fact.
The only club I couldn't play for is Newell's Old Boys because I am a fan of Rosario Central.
It was amazing to have Mourinho call me, even though I'd been warned before how he would appeal to me. I listened to his arguments about why I should move to United. But at that time I was hesitant between staying at Leicester or leaving for Chelsea.
My two boys, Henri and Freddie don't really know much about Liverpool! They've got Wolves kits and come to all the games. They sing the songs, it's great.
