Football is not always harmonious.

I was able to turn my hobby into my profession, and I am thankful for that. But I have other interests beside football, and I can devote my time to them now.

The Premier League is a different kind of league, in terms of physical play.

People have weaknesses, we should accept it.

Things aren't always full of sunshine, there has to be friction at times as well.

At Bayern you need other characteristics to assert yourself. Just being good is not enough there.

I want to prove myself at Chelsea and be successful in the Premiership and the Champions League.

It is something very special when you can win a league title, because it is the one that you play all year for.

Mario Gotze is a great player, but one of my favourites is Marco Reus, who is a fantastic player, and one of the very best.
