It's a great honor to play in the same game as Luis, and hopefully we'll come out on top,
The relationship between the players and the FA at the moment is questionable,
It was deliberate. I am sure some people think that I have not got the brains to be that clever, but I do have the brains.
It was alright -- we won the game,
It was a strange experience ... But we went for it right from the start and we deserved to win.
That's part and parcel of being a top-flight manager, to be able to handle big games like Champions League and World Cups. You do need to have a certain amount of experience on that side.
Always big questions are asked when a club as big as ours has not won anything for one season, never mind three. Not winning anything again looks like it might happen now.
We're in form. When we make the most of our potential, we can destroy any team we come up against.
Wayne can play any position but the way he plays for Manchester United, just off the main striker, is unstoppable. He runs at players and that is what causes teams most problems.
Wayne can be whoever he wants to be. He's a great young lad and he's at the right club to be looked after and to be brought through. If he carries on doing what he's doing, creating chances for players and for himself, he's going to deserve those comparisons.
We grew up together so it was nice to lead our countries against one another,
I remember saying after I left that I would love to say goodbye and thank the manager and at least get a handshake.
I love playing for Real Madrid, I love Spain and the fans have been incredible but what I get over there I've not had anywhere else in the world.
I know I've been given a talent which can't disappear just like that. For four games I didn't perform like I can. I want to prove that's right.
