If we win 1-0, I don't care if the goalkeeper scores.

For me, if the ball's in the net, it doesn't matter if it's an overhead kick or just a tap-in.

Because we are a small country, unlike England, Italy, or Brazil, we don't have as many good players.

When I set myself a target, I aim to reach it.

I will dream about winning the Golden Ball until I stop playing.

I just want to entertain and make people enjoy the game and smile.

When you train with good players or watch matches on TV, you want to do what they do.

It doesn't matter how many goals you score; one goal is enough if you don't let one in your net.

Sometimes self-esteem affects you on and off the pitch. Until you face your next game and you miss an easy chance, for example, then you feel not as great.

On the pitch, you can have the feeling that everything is happening for you, from passing to tackles.

Jose Mourinho knows how to control to big players in the dressing room, to control egos. He's done it all his life and knows how to work it into the team.

Players want to enjoy their football and talk up their performances.

Nobody wants to play bad football in a game; everybody wants to win, and every player wants to show how good he is. But, you know, sometimes you simply have a game where nothing is happening.

When I signed for United, I felt like it was a reward for everything that I'd been through in my life.

When United wanted me, I was like a horse with blinkers on. I was not interested in anyone else. City offered more money, but the team was weaker, and their history couldn't compete with United.

If Lukaku is not as good as others with his first touch, then give him a ball that he can handle.

When you know how to read football, it is easier for some players.

I came from a background where we didn't have bread. I know what it's like to live with money and no money.

Sport is healthy, but it can be the opposite of that at the top level. You have so many injuries; you put your body through so much. You wake up at 2 in the morning, and you cannot move.

Like Nemanja Vidic, I came from a small town in a small country in Eastern Europe, but we had reached the top.

I like to play with the ball and have the freedom to move around.

If every player is on the left, and I am on the right, you need to trust me that I have seen something the other players have not seen.

To win the league, you don't just need great players, but you need players who have the mentality of title winners.

Top-level football gives you fame and money, but it takes away a lot, too.
