00:00I came for three years and said, let's see what happened, and the rest is history.
00:05I'm really satisfied, happy and proud, and I've been the experience, I would say, maybe of my life.
00:12Otherwise, it wouldn't have been ten years.
00:14Why now?
00:16It's the time.
00:17It's not wake up, go to sleep one day, wake up in the day after and say, now is the
00:22time to live.
00:24It is a process that I felt for a while.
00:27I want to say proper goodbye to my people, you know, on Sunday.
00:30I want to hug them, all of them, on the pitch, and that's why we announced them.
00:35What do you want to do next?
00:37No rest.
00:38No plans to train for a while.
00:40Otherwise, I will be here, and I need to step back.
00:45I will not train for a while.
00:46When Jürgen Klopp left, he said, I'm running out of energy.
00:49Is that a similar feeling that you have?
00:50Absolutely.
00:52Absolutely.
00:53I had to have, I will not have.
00:56It's simple.
00:56What is the reason?
00:57It's the time.
00:58It's ten years.
00:59I'm thinking it's not good in the organisation.
01:01I have people for many, many years.
01:02It's good to shake, to move, and new faces.
01:04It's really good for everyone.
01:06When did you tell the players that you were definitely going?
01:09Good morning.
01:10How did they react?
01:11The speech was a disaster.
01:14I was so nervous, more than ever.
01:16I know I had incredible success in my time as a manager.
01:20It's nice, you know, to be there.
01:22One of the biggest, biggest compliments I had.
01:25I got a message for Sir Alex Ferguson yesterday, two days ago, and that made me so happy.
01:30I'm living with incredible peace of my, you know, sense of peace of my soul that I gave everything for,
01:35to do this club.
01:37You know, in better position, and the people especially enjoy what we have done these ten years.
01:43And the club have announced today that the North stand is going to be renamed the Pep Guardiola stand.
01:47How does that make you feel?
01:48Oh, God.
01:49No speechless, no words.
01:51What can I say?
01:51I will send good energy for the team, for the club.
01:56It's an incredible, maybe the huge honours I can get.
01:59There is one sentence now coming in my memory, talking with Noah Gallagher.
02:03I said one day, years ago, many years ago, two years ago.
02:06So that we were a team that we were not able to win four games in a row, and now
02:09we are going four primaries in a row.
02:12So, and I said, wow, that is a good sentence.
02:15Many, many people, when I started, my closest people, when I said, okay, it will be my last season,
02:20I said, ah, after three months you will come back.
02:22I said, ah, maybe.
02:23But I need to prove.
02:25I don't think so, to be honest.
02:27I would take a while, time like, I would not.
02:30But I have to prove myself.
