Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win, sometimes you are unlucky, but that's life.

You need bad times to become a better and strong player.

When we lose the ball, I don't want to win it back directly. I act smarter now, have better anticipation, and also start earlier when somebody tries to lob the ball over me.

My motivation is that I try to get myself to a certain point, and I want to win as much as I can in my career.

There is a no more complete striker than Ronaldo. Left foot, right foot, header - he is in perfect control of everything he does.

Football should and has to remain beautiful - entertainment, a celebration for everyone.

I try every day to become a better player - passing more to open the game - I try everything because you can always be better.

I had only one year in England and had not such a good time. Two times, I was out eight weeks with injuries.

I can play at full back on either side, but I prefer the central defensive position.
