00:00 Jürgen, how are you feeling about your last game?
00:04 The same advice as the fans?
00:06 Yeah, the most intense week of my life definitely was that.
00:10 I said so often goodbye this week to so many people,
00:16 great moments already, so we don't have to pretend it's a normal week,
00:22 because it isn't, but on the other side, looking at the game,
00:27 I said it as well this week, I'm a very pragmatic person,
00:32 I very often try to save myself, and this is the last game of the season,
00:37 and after that it's holiday, that's what I had for the last 24 years,
00:41 so business as usual.
00:42 Knowing that everything during the game will be completely different.
00:46 Yesterday the players said goodbye, we had a little barbecue here,
00:52 it was really nice, the day before yesterday was the stuff of Chapel Street,
00:58 it was really, really nice.
01:00 San Hildo Stadium after that, another goodbye, celebration, whatever.
01:07 It's a lot, and I had very emotional moments of course, in between,
01:11 but it's a lot to do as well.
01:15 I'm not sure, but I don't know exactly how many shirts I signed last week,
01:21 but there were a few, let me say it like that, and I'm not sure if everybody has one.
01:26 But it's all part of the thing, saying goodbye I don't think is ever nice,
01:33 but saying goodbye without feeling sad or hurt or whatever,
01:42 that would just mean that the time we spent together was not right and not great,
01:48 and we had a great time, so it was always clear that it would be tough.
01:52 And I know it will be tough.
