I'm only 27 but still I've had a lot of experience just playing with different teams, different coaches, different players.
The truth hurts, and not everyone can deal with it. Every player is different, but they are all entitled to the truth. It is up to them if they can handle it or not.
The NFL is made up of 1,800 players, guys from different religious backgrounds, different upbringings. I love Peyton Manning. But I don't want 1,800 Peyton Mannings in the NFL.
Messi, Neymar or Ronaldo? The three of them are exceptional, they have a lot of quality and they have their differences.
Ronaldo is different from Messi. He is very impressive down the wings.
Rafa and Roger, they have completely different games.
Of course, South Americans are different from Europeans; I knew that when we played them.
There is no set numerical value you can put on a pitcher. They're all different.
My philosophy about the game, for instance, is that you have players out there who really do different things.
Managers and players at different clubs, it's difficult to compare.
What differences were there between Maradona and Platini?
No person is the same, and so you can't treat each player identically.
In every team I have played with, and of all of the attackers I have played with, each one was different.
Certain players need twice the recovery time of others because they run much more - not because they put in more effort but because they're playing different positions.
Whether a player rotates more or less depends on his form and his position. It's not the same for a center back as it is for a winger. Every player is different.
It's important to recognise every player is different in their own characteristics, personality, and what they respond to.
You can't manage every footballer the same. Of course you'd love to, but it doesn't work like that. We're not robots.
Ronaldinho and Robinho are two totally different players.
I'm different to someone like Jamie Vardy, who is a lot quicker than me but if he loses a yard he loses a large part of his game - whereas I never had the yard in the first place.
Every guy has different strengths in the NFL. Receivers are different, running backs are different, but they all have that one thing that they do that's special: that thing that keeps them on the roster every year.
I think I know now, each team is different, each player is different. I don't believe everybody has got to be the same.
