If this team plays to its full potential then we can be devastating and, if we do that, hopefully we'll get a good result and beat Arsenal.
It's a great honor to play in the same game as Luis, and hopefully we'll come out on top,
I was asked if the next World Cup was going to be my last and I said possibly it could be, but I hope it isn't,
He is doing what he thinks is best. If that means we play a side or in a way that not many people agree with, then we have got to put that aside, move on and hopefully win the game.
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 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.
Every one of our players respects every one of their players and their team as a whole. But once we cross that white line most of the respect will be out the window and we will be fighting to win the game.
Everybody is proud of what the cricketers have done in the last month. It's been incredible. We send our best wishes to the cricketers.
On being put out of the World Cup: That was the past, this is the future.
It's not all about me. I've got to lead as a captain and I'll try my best as always -- but so will all the players.
I'm not complaining, but of course it's tough. It's tough on any family.
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.
