A system depends on the players you have. I played 4-3-3 with Ajax, 2-3-2-3 with Barcelona and a 4-4-2 with AZ. I'm flexible. The philosophy stays the same though. I don't think that you can adapt it to every possible situation. You need the right mindset, and it depends on how the players see the coach and vice versa. The coach is the focal point of the team but you need to have an open mind, and so do all the players. Everyone needs to work together to achieve a common goal.

A player you can buy in 24 hours, believe me. That's not a problem

I am who I am: confident, arrogant, dominant, honest, hard-working and innovative.

When I buy, I buy players for the long term, not the short term because I do respect the club a lot and also the other clubs.

I've signed a contract with the Dutch national team until 2006. So I can win the World Cup not once but twice.

If certain players do not carry out their tasks properly on the pitch then their colleagues will suffer.

Running is for animals. You need a brain and a ball for football.
