Of course it is going to be difficult for any player to get in the Chelsea side no matter who they are.

Before my mother died, she told me not to leave Chelsea.

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

I think as far as kids go, you just have to work hard. Work on your skills, keep focused.

Goals never come easy. No one gives you goals.

I can't stress the importance of working hard enough, work on all aspects of your game. If you does that and you have the ability, you'll come through.

I think about all my successes and failures and sometimes the failures stick in your head as much as the wins. But you do move on.

I am a man who likes to play consistently; I always play better when I'm on a run of games.

When you take a lot of stick you want to ram it down people's throats.

I never studied film theory, so I don't know the terminology.

I do believe you can be attracted by somebody at first sight. We have all done it.

All human knowledge begins with intuitions, proceeds from thence to concepts, and ends with ideas.

The vices of which we are full we carefully hide from others, and we flatter ourselves with the notion that they are small and trivial; we sometimes even embrace them as virtues.

Stars of heaven, clear and bright, Shine upon this Christmas light, Vaster far than midnight skies Are its timeless mysteries.
