The young generation has a different curiosity that is more visual.

If there's a national-team player, he has to do extra work. He has to do extra weeks, and he can't go on vacation even if he says: 'Well, but I'm supposed now to have six weeks off.' If he comes and says that, then I give him a hug and say: 'Have fun the six weeks, but don't come back here.'

The player can only compete with the best internationally when they've committed themselves to this goal. They have to be properly supported until that point.

Based on history the expectations are simply the highest, it kind of could become a burden for you or it could be something that you are really proud of, you know so I take the second one.

I always stressed that I didn't have coaching experience, but that I did have a deadline: June 9.

I had to delegate authority to the people on my staff. That means you shave away the hierarchy.

As far as knowledge goes I've come a long way.
