Jürgen, massive, massive congratulations.
Can you sum up how you're feeling right now?
No, unfortunately not, because if I tried to start talking about it again
I will start crying again and that doesn’t work really well!
I am completely overwhelmed; I don’t know, it’s a mix of everything -
I am relieved, I am happy, I am proud. I couldn’t be more proud of the boys.
How we watched the game tonight together, we knew it could happen,
it couldn’t happen, we didn’t know.
We want to play football and we are really happy that we are allowed to play again -
then when it happened in that moment, it was a pure explosion.
When we counted down the last five seconds of the game,
the ref counted down a little bit longer than us so we had to look at two or three more passes!
Then it was pure… I cannot describe it.
It was a really, really nice moment.
Directly after it, I felt so empty inside -
I cannot believe it, I am really not happy with myself in the moment
that I feel like I feel, but it’s just a little bit too much in the moment.
I will be fine, nobody has to worry.
I actually couldn’t be happier; I couldn’t have dreamed of something like that
and I never did before last year, honestly.
We were not close enough three years ago,
a year ago we were really close…
What the boys have done in the last two-and-a-half years,
the consistency they show is absolutely incredible and second to none.
Honestly, I have no idea how we do that all the time.
Last night, a very good example - we played that game like the stadium
is fully packed and everybody is shouting ‘Liverpool’ or whatever constantly.
It is a wonderful moment, that’s what I can say.
How important was it to share the moment together with all the players and staff?
There was no alternative.
This morning we thought about it, shall we do something,
and then we thought maybe not compulsory,
the boys have to drive a little bit,
and then I said, ‘No, we have to make it compulsory, everybody has to be there’,
because I am more experienced and I know who will stay at home and watch it alone
will regret it for the rest of his life.
So, we came here together, it is our bubble,
it is the people who are with us every day, we are all twice-a-week tested
so we are fine since we can train again, and it’s a nice moment.
It's wonderful to share it,
but we share it with everybody out there as well because we are here,
they are there, but we are all together.
My message is: it's for you out there. It's really for you.
I hope you feel it. I hope you saw it last night, not only last night
but after a long time, last night again.
It's for so many people.
Kenny Dalglish and Graeme Souness spoke to me on another interview
and they were obviously very positive about us.
That’s nice, [but it’s] thanks to them because this club is built on what they did.
It's built, of course, on Shankly and Paisley and Fagan and all the others,
but on these players…
Steven Gerrard - this club is built, in the last 20 years, on Stevie’s legs.
He had to carry all of the pressure on his shoulders and he did that exceptionally.
I am really happy that we can deliver this title to him as well.
The boys love being part of this club,
they love being part of the story of this club and the history.
It's so nice how we learned to deal with the history,
how we learned to use the history in the last two years.
It's just amazing.
Given that the fans have waited 30 years to win the title again,
it must be a really proud moment for everybody connected with the club tonight.
You know that better than I do!
30 years ago…
I was 23, so I didn’t think too much about winning a title with Liverpool, to be honest!
I had no skills for that!
30 years later I am here and because of... The great staff I have, it's unbelievable!
Tonight, you see them all together.
What Ray [Haughan] did organisation-wise, what Mona [Nemmer] did food-wise
and with nutrition is amazing. What Korny [Andreas Kornmayer] did on a fitness level,
what Pep Lijnders did and put into this game,
there is so much of his soul in our game now in this short period.
Unbelievable.
Pete [Krawietz]… Wow, what a… I couldn’t thank them all more.
Vitor [Matos] came in and he has lost one game since he is in.
Unbelievable. The youth, the players,
Neco Williams would not be in this moment or the position he is,
or Curtis, or Harvey or now Leighton [Clarkson] coming up
and Jake Cain coming up, they would not be in this position if Vitor is not here.
John [Achterberg] and Jack [Robinson],
it's a joy to work with them together every day.
It's for Danielle, my PA who I didn’t see for three-and-a-half or four months
but she is working her socks off and suffers so much. It's for everybody.
It's for Mike [Gordon], Tom [Werner] and John [Henry], our owners in America.
We couldn’t reach other, I have 20 calls and them probably as well
because I couldn’t catch him so far.
It's for everybody; they all put so much effort into it
and I am the lucky guy who sits in the seat in this moment and…
can be part of this story, it’s so great, it's unbelievable.
Well, Jürgen, congratulations and enjoy the rest of the night and the celebrations.
Thank you, and you!
All the best, see you.
