There are two types of football - there's physical football and football talent.

I’d love to be faster. Physically I’m limited, but I’ve survived by using my head.

Favourite stadium? I have good memories of my CL debut at Old Trafford, spectacular atmosphere. The Theatre of Dreams, as they say.

In the last 15 to 20 years the best central midfielder that I have seen - the most complete - is SCHOLES

Some teams can't or don't pass the ball. What are you playing for? What's the point? That's not football. Combine, pass, play. That's football - for me, at least.

In futsal, you see whether a player is really talented. You notice the small details in quality, class and tactical understanding.

Maybe one small regret is that I never got to play with Paul Scholes - but I was never going to leave Barcelona and he was never going to leave Manchester United.

In football, the result is an impostor. You can do things really, really well but not win. There's something greater than the result, more lasting - a legacy.

I liked the Paul Ince and Roy Keane partnership Manchester United had. They would have been my team had I moved to England.

Celtic, like Barcelona, are more than a football club. Our clubs are a symbol of a culture and community that has not always been made welcome in their respective countries.

To me Paul is a role model. He is the best midfielder I've seen in the last 15 or 20 years.

Strange dreams are better than no dreams at all.

And that's what makes you angry. What makes you hate. You don't want to believe that sometimes bad things happen just because they do.

But here, two thousand miles from home, there was a real shipwreck, a real hope. A choice big enough to change our lives forever.

The moon can never breathe, but it can take our breath away with the beauty of its cold, arid orb.

You can succeed if nobody else believes it but you will never succeed if you don't believe in yourself.

Rome has not seen a modern building in more than half a century. It is a city frozen in time.

The Passion that one Soul hath for God cannot be judged by another.

I never used to get homesick when I first moved to L.A.

The American success formula is first to get a home of your own, then to get a car of your own so you don't have to stay in that home of your own.

Astrology and all these mystical things are generally signs of a weak mind
