My wish is to concentrate on playing football for Manchester City.

What do folk always say about Arsenal? They can pass you to death.

Winning - that's the most important to me. It's as simple as that.

Some people think that I haven't got the brains to be that clever.

As a footballer you always want to test yourself against the best.

I knew it was my time to retire, when I saw Messi running past me.

Players playing with a lot of confidence can achieve great things.

People think I'm laid back, but there's a lot going on in my head.

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

I can't play for the national team if I'm not playing for my club.

Barcelona are my favourite team in Spain, let's put it that way...

Believe me, you need good people if you want to make good players.

Eric Cantona is a great player, but he's not as good as Ryan Giggs

I don't believe you can buy style. Money won't make you look good.

The managers I've known all had their own specific way of working.

Some things you can shake off, some things dig deeper than soccer.

When playing against big teams, it's the small details that count.

For me, it's more important to win a team award, like a World Cup.

When you change a manager like Sir Alex Ferguson, it is difficult.

The person that said winning isn't everything, never won anything.

If a team intimidate you physically and you let them, they've won.

We have to be very aggressive, to go to the limit of what's legal.

The last shall not become the first if the last is lagging behind.

I played at the highest level for 17 years and won so many titles.

I had great moments in my life and I'm happy with what I achieved.

It is my job to score goals but that is only one part of the team.

I have never been in a cage fighting UFC. It would be nice to try.

I have created a shell around me, in the good and the bad moments.

When you are a striker like me, you always play for the teammates.

If Arsenal played like this all the time they could win the league

Because of the booking I will miss the Holland game - if selected.

Three goals in 90 minutes is possible, there is no doubt about it.

Cristiano is happy at Real Madrid and focused on helping the team.

Klopp helped me play my favourite position again - centre-forward.

I have always been able to overcome difficulties during my career.

Football runs in my blood, and I did really want to play football.

To say that I haven't been motivated to play is absolute nonsense.

Well, Clive, it's all about the two Ms - movement and positioning.

When people repeatedly hit me, I would feel a sense of unfairness.

I'd prefer it if the coach said certain things to me face to face.

I like to be the winner; I like to change. I like to make history.

I admire the Premier League for the quality and style of football.

Don't try to beat the goalkeeper...Tr y to destroy the goalkeeper.

If other people want to talk about my future I can't control that.

Paul Scholes was at home on a cold February day away to Newcastle.

Sir Alex Ferguson is one of the best managers in football history.

As a soccer player, that's the greatest dream, to win a World Cup.

I enjoy playing football, and that's about it. I'm no-one special.

Socratic question: all plans? Some? Which ones? How do they do so?

If Giggs was French, Pires or myself would have been on the bench.
