00:00 Joel and Thiago were in my office, we spoke a bit longer this week.

00:05 Have you ever seen a better free transfer than Joel Matip?

00:13 You will not find a more likeable person than Joel Matip.

00:17 He's funny in his own way, ridiculously funny to be honest,

00:21 and a wonderful man, with a wonderful family,

00:24 so he has to make a decision whether he wants to play on or not,

00:27 but we will see that, or read it, or whatever.

00:31 But whoever gets him is a lucky club, definitely,

00:36 because he's world-class and super humble.

00:39 That together is now really rare, like super humble.

00:43 And the next world-class player, then obviously Thiago.

00:47 In a parallel world, I would have loved to see the career without injuries.

00:53 I'm not sure he's the best, but definitely one of the best I ever saw.

00:58 He can do things, I was before that and didn't think it was possible.

01:04 He's in control of absolutely everything on the pitch,

01:07 unfortunately the body didn't play exactly a part.

01:10 But he's in a good way, he looked really good yesterday,

01:13 and I'm sure he won't want to give it a try again.

01:17 I told them already, "Thank you" for everything they did,

01:21 so I don't think I have to tell you that now.

01:24 Whoever leaves this club and worked together last year,

01:27 they were all brilliant, there's nothing.

01:29 If they wouldn't have been brilliant, they would have left last year,

01:32 because we don't carry problems with us.

01:35 So I'm really, really thankful for that.
