I'm not complaining, but of course it's tough. It's tough on any family.
Can we trust Sven? We can definitely trust him,
But I haven't got any advice for him because I'm sure his parents can do that for him,
Beckham is the player who works more than anyone here and he plays in a position that is not his. He makes sacrifices for the team. He does not play just to sell shirts.
I like playing in Madrid and Spain. I live in this city and although we haven't yet talked about renewing my contract, after the Champions League matches against Arsenal we will talk.
I'm pleased with my personal performance but particularly with the way the team played overall.
I'm personally not prepared to put my children in that situation,
If Manchester United came out and said they would retire the shirt, it would be an amazing tribute to a great man.
In 2012, I can take my children to an Olympics which we might never had had the chance to do. ... This is such a huge lift for our country.
It's important to find different formations because you come up against different teams, especially when you have players out or injured,
It's been decided that he is going, but it could have been done at a better time. We could have done without this, leading up to the World Cup.
As a person he is incredible, as a player he's better. Roy Keane brings a lot more to a team than just playing on the pitch.
Arsenal is a great team with a great coach. Although they come amid a bad spell, we can't rely on that and we must play our best and get the most out of the match.
At the end of the day he does what he wants and what he thinks is best for the team.
