It's not easy to make the playoffs, and I think a lot of people overlook that. They think it's a piece of cake, but it's definitely not.
The difference between an 8-8 team and a team that goes 12-4 is not that much, and I think we realize that.
I had three very successful years in Germany with Borussia Dortmund, but I had the opportunity to move to one of the biggest clubs in the highest-profile league in the world.
Being the manager of Manchester City is fantastic for me. It's good.
I'm a huge Ron Rivera fan, I played for Ron for three years in Chicago.
A lot of teams who go on to win trophies lose in quarter-finals or semi-finals first.
The team that gets off to a good start wins pennants.
I have never played a game for the national title. Our goals always have been to win the Big Ten title and the Rose Bowl. If we do that, then we consider it a successful season.
I've lost two jobs, at Newcastle and Norwich, but that's the nature of the game these days. It doesn't remove winning the Championship with Newcastle from my record, nor finishing 11th in my first season at Norwich after we went on an incredible run before Christmas.
I got Everton competing at the top end of the league with a midtable budget.
If you win games you will have good possibilities to maybe play in Europe, you never know.
I took the job at United fully expecting to be walking around after the last home game of the season either challenging for a league title or parading a league title because that's what this club demands.
One place had a winning record that I went to, and that was Detroit. Rick Carlisle laid a foundation that gave us a chance to win a championship.
I don't want to be a quarterback that has all these stats but didn't win a lot of games.
The fans in Dallas were hard on me my first year, but after having a great year last year they are now supporting me. It feels great to have my hard work pay off, especially when the fans made it hard for me.
I think if you're consistent in this league, you'll win a lot of ball games.
If we can string together some wins this year, maybe I'll be a close second-or third behind Bart Starr-on their favorite quarterback list.
When you compare Arsenal and City, it's not the same. With City, I'm playing in a better team.
If we can lose 12 games every year and go to the Final Four every year, I'll take it. I'd rather do that than win 30 and not go to the Final Four.
I've been blessed enough to be on a great team, gone to the divisional round five years in a row or whatever it was. That's special. Not everybody gets an opportunity to do that.
I guess when you have that one monster season, it's good because you're recognized. If it weren't for that season, not as many people would know about my career. But it also kind of diminishes what I did in other years.
The thing we found out was, when you get to a Super Bowl, both teams are treated the same, talked about in glowing terms. But when the game is over, only the team that won matters.
You look at 2001, we were third in points and no one gave us much of a chance when the season started. We came back last year and had the same team, the same everybody and led points.
The playoffs is ‑ I think I took it for granted a little bit. My first two years I kind of just thought that always happened, I guess.
I think 2019 has been a successful season. When I look at the start of the year, that was very, very strong.
