That was always special, playing Manchester United. I loved the feeling of the derby, that pressure, the atmosphere around it. And I did have some good matches there, didn't I?

When you're a young boy, you don't think; you just go for it. When you have more experience, you have to play more with your head.

I think, for every player, it is important he knows the manager believes in him, and it is important he has the confidence of the manager. That helps you to find the best form.

I never played any games like this in Germany, not when you have to fight for 90 minutes. But if I want to be successful in England, I have to get used to it.

When you score in the first minutes, everything changes.

I have spent some of the best moments of my career at Manchester City, moments that I will never forget.

If you win, you must be a good team.

I'm not interested in money.

I cannot hide being sorry for failing to move to Juventus.

War made my everyday problems seem much smaller, and when it is hard sometimes, I just remember that it could be much worse.

Of course we all dream about doing big, playing for big clubs, but I wanted to play football because of the love for the game.

If we start the season with negative thinking, we'd never win anything.

I want to do more and more; it provides me with an incentive.

I am not a player who stays on the edge of the box and waits for a chance.

I think the No. 9 will always be in football. You need the proper No. 9s in football; that's my opinion.

I will continue to be a big fan of Manchester City, to whom I wish all the best and many more trophies and happiness in the future.

I try to do my best in every game to help the team.

Of course, there is no greater honour than to captain your own country.

My motto has always been, 'Never give up.'

Everyone expects goals, and I want to score them, but most of all, I want to contribute to a successful team.

For every striker, it's important to have some crosses. Sometimes they come, sometimes not.

Saying goodbye to close ones is always the hardest.

When big teams play each other, you automatically want to raise your game. You want to see what level you're at, and you know you have to step up.

I think everybody can say that Luis Suarez is a very good player. He's scored so many goals in the Premier League, and he is definitely a quality player.
