“Being 58, which suggests I could make the decision down the line, who knows. Must I choose now? In that case, I'd stay away. Luckily, it's not necessary. I can just see what lies ahead.”

What Would Lure Him Back?

Pressed on what circumstances must arise to tempt his return to the touchline, he revealed he feels no immediate pull to such a return. “It's unclear to me, My present work fulfills me,” he commented. “No longing for management; No desire to be in the rain for lengthy sessions; I'm glad to skip press conferences multiple times weekly or doing numerous chats weekly.

“The locker room isn't missed as a dressing room, yet sharing a meal with the players enjoying conversation, that’s nice. Success was frequent so there was often great spirits at the club. Remaining with me is Van Dijk's laughter in my ear to illustrate.”

Praise for His Successor

He commended regarding Arne Slot, crediting him for the adjustments that won the league in the previous season. They've been defeated a string of losses in all competitions after a summer spending spree, but he rubbished the suggestion that it might signal a slump.

“[Liverpool have] a top-class attacker such as Wirtz, critics will regret if you use the wrong words. A remarkable prospect. [Hugo] Ekitike, incredible player. They have a strong well-judged squad. Fans shouldn't fret over the club, they will be fine.”

Heartfelt Words for Diogo Jota

He shared movingly regarding the passing of Diogo Jota, a 2020 acquisition during his tenure, and its impact for the team. The Portugal international died tragically in a vehicle collision with his brother in July.

“Who can fill the void of somebody like Diogo? It goes beyond the player himself, his personality mattered. It's hard to picture the squad without him in it. Putting it into words is tough on this topic. It was an incredible shock for his teammates too. Not a single person will ever use it for poor performances yet it's the reality. Being in that space where his spirit remains. Handling this on a personal level is not easy. Impossible.”
