I come from the east end of London where the main Olympic Park will be, so I am really excited by the plans for the development of the area.
He's the man who brought me to the club and that's why people have turned around this morning and said 'will I be leaving?'. I've got a great relationship with him but I've also got a great relationship with the other board members and directors and players and fans.
I am very happy at Madrid. I have two years left on my contract and I would like to finish my career there.
I don't think we could have thrown anything more at them. They defended exceptionally and we just couldn't break them down. I expected a few goals but overall I wish them good luck because they are a good team.
I don't think we could have thrown any more at them. They defended exceptionally and we couldn't break them down. I'm very surprised it finished 0-0.
I don't think we could have thrown any more at them.
However the club has already said they want me to stay. I am happy there and would like to stay there.
I'm not complaining, but of course it's tough. It's tough on any family.
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.
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.
The football side of things is much better now and I'm pleased with how it's going,
The coach said he'd be bringing players on and off so it wasn't a surprise, ... It's just one of those things.
The club have said they want to talk to me about signing a new deal and I am very happy to do that,
The club have already expressed their feelings in wanting me to stay a few more years. I want to stay at Real Madrid -- but we'll see.
