moving lasts firsts
You kind of never leave Arsenal. How many comebacks do you make? At one point it will turn out to be a bad move. We all love the first Rocky but I'm not too sure about the last one.
games two differences
People always talk about Ronaldinho, and everything but I didnt see him today - I saw Henrik Larsson. Two times he came on - he changed the game, that is what killed the game - sometimes you talk about Ronaldinho and Etoo and people like that, you need to talk about the proper footballer who made the difference and that was Henrik Larsson tonight
wenger clubs never-forget
I’ll never forget the club or him I don’t see Arsenal without Arsene Wenger
differences balls moments
I take the ball, I go wide, I cross, I shoot, but when the moment beckons, I am ready to make the difference.
kings feet balls
King would get the ball off you without you even noticing he's the only defender in England who doesn't hold onto you, and he sometimes still gets the ball off my feet easily.
winning trying clubs
Barcelona is always a club that, at the beginning of the season, wants to win everything. I will try my best to do that with them and I'm sure I will help as much as I can.
games body needs
But one thing you need to do in the game, is to adapt and adjust your game to what you have been asked to do and also to what your body is telling you to do.
plans
I don't like to plan anything.
football real play
I only deal in what is real. To be honest, I've never thought about what I could get out of football or where it would take me. I just wanted to play. I'm the same now.
scared sometimes young
Sometimes being young and confident is better than being old with experience...when I was young I wasn't scared about anything
team europe spurs
Being seen as the best striker in Europe doesn't spur me on-it's helping my team to success. That's my only aim. I'm not a machine.
motivation kids home
The Barcelona youth program is one of the best in the world. At the age of just 27, he is already their record goalscorer in competitive, league, as well as continental games. He is a sensation, but still he can improve. When I was a kid, my friends would call me to go out with them, but I would stay home because I had practice the next day. My motivation comes from playing the game I love.
football race play
A lot of different races and nationalities play football, so it is a good way to try and stop racism.
sports running golf
When you look at other sports, like golf, the players earn a lot more money without running around.
