We do need to share that out because Frank's showed this season that he gets forward, he scores goals, gets in some great positions,
We can take a lot from that game, to play against one of the best teams in the world and we've outplayed them for 90 minutes, ... They've scored two goals in the last two minutes of extra time. We had a lot of young lads out there who played as if they had been around for a long time.
If it all ended tomorrow, I would hope that people would write about captaining England 50 times, the 86 caps, winning the European Cup, six Premiership titles, two FA Cups, ... So many goals and games for United. And, hopefully, there is still a trophy with England and Madrid.
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.
We will support the manager until he leaves at the end of the tournament. That's clear for the players.
I've seen his mother talk on the TV and and I think he's got strong parents behind him, and that's what you need when you start out as a sportsman.
The squad had a get together yesterday just with the players, and it felt like being part of a club side,
I still don't know if I will play, because it still hurts.
I've been waiting for this moment for three years. From the start I wanted to wear Real Madrid's shirt in England. There's a special aura about being a Real Madrid player and I want to show it in England. To play in London, where I was born, is going to be very special.
I've definitely had lower points in my career, ... I've been through some worse and the World Cup was worse.
Thierry Henry is playing just phenomenally at the moment. And with a team like that we're really going to have to play to counter a score like this in London.
People don't think I've got the brains to be that clever.
People go on about my foul on Simeone and the red card but I'd obviously rather people talk about me scoring the penalty four years later,
Even though we haven't won anything on the pitch I love playing football here. Playing for Real Madrid is an honor. I want to win something and I don't want to leave without winning something.
