So when Diego basically went downhill then towards the end of 88, 89,
And he was not himself anymore in the 90 World Cup already.
And then obviously the drug issue came out in 94 then.
But Lothar Matthäus took over in 89, 90 to be the best player in the world for a couple of years.
And I mean, he was just like a box to box midfielder.
that did all the right decisions in a split, split second.
He was both footed, he had incredible speed, the first 10 yards when he was like, and yeah, playing alongside him, I think playing against, it was Diego Maradona that I admired the most, also Ruud Gullit, Ruud was for me fantastic, Marco van Basten, in the early 90s the best striker in the world, I would say, until he had, he broke his ankle.
Yeah, he fused his ankle.
But alongside it was Lothar Matthäus.
And you get on well with him now, Matthäus?
Totally, yeah.
We're literally not best friends, but we're texting every two weeks.
That's nice.
Yeah, it's really became such a great friendship and respectful friendship.

I think it was actually also something really positive, good for it, because I was in the 19 World Cup team that won it, and I was representing the younger group of players a bit, and he was the establishment.
He was the boss with Rudi Föller, with Andreas Brehme.
So 3-4, Augenthaler from Bayern Munich, the sweeper there, they ran the show.
And I was kind of representing the younger kids, the rebels a bit.
