@Anon before the anon above me: Kaneki was referring to himself with "I have to fight no matter what" though. Even then, he wouldn't want the people he cared about to be harmed, so I'm not surprised that's what he asked the Quinx to do, especially since they were so inexperienced then. When it came down to it, he still kept on fighting to ensure they survive.

With his old group, everyone could hold their own in a fight against tough opponents except for Hinami, who he does his best to keep out of harms way. He only had her assist with surveillance in less dangerous circumstances and with a high risk situation like Kanou, he left her at home.

Also, Sasaki is a lot wiser strategically than when he was Kaneki, so that factors in to what he told the Quinx to do in dangerous situations. It doesn't really have much to do with personality, if at all; simply a change in approach to the same philosophy of protecting his loved ones no matter what.
