If happiness is liking the life one lives, I can say I have been happy, and still am.

I never set out to be the best player in history. I think I'm just another footballer. On the pitch we are all the same and when the game starts I always try to improve myself. My intention is that when I retire, I will be remembered for being a good person.

Mental toughness is to physical as four is to one.

Winners never quit and quitters never win.

You can make all the excuses you want, but if you're not mentally tough and you're not prepared to play every night, you're not going to win.

I did the best I could with what I had.
