Quotations:
"We Germans are so good at penalties because we have had to rebuild our country twice."
"We can only win by giving everything and being ready to defeat the adversary with fiery aggression."
"I do swear a lot, but the advantage is that having played abroad, I can choose a different language from the referee's."
"To any young kid who wants to be a footballer, I would simply say: Have fun playing football and enjoy the team - spirit. That's the right attitude; that will bring you pleasure and fulfillment in football. A baker cannot live on bread he made yesterday, and a footballer cannot live on his last game. It's about the here and now."
