When you leave a club like Liverpool, you have to go somewhere you'll feel comfortable and progress as a player. To come to Stoke was an easy decision.
When I played for Hannover I had several offers, also - as I have been told - from Hamburg, Bremen and Bayern. Back then I already was a German international and Bayern would have loved to have the complete German national team.
I remember, when I was at Sunderland, we made the FA Cup final and played in front of 20,000 at Derby.
I support Real Madrid. I'm a big fan of Cristiano Ronaldo.
The main factor in joining Arsenal was meeting with Arsene Wenger and to hear what his plans were for me.
I am both honored and blessed to have had such a wonderful career with the L.A. Galaxy and I am thankful for everything the club, the fans and the community has done for me and my family.
The team is the star at Manchester United.
As soon as I knew I was leaving Chelsea, our first thought was to return to Germany.
When I went to Real Madrid, I was only 18 or 19 years old. It was my first year as a professional footballer. I was very young.
I started doing well at Villa when I was six or seven.
I think that Manchester United, since I was young - and I'm not just saying this because I'm here; I'm an honest guy, and I never lie - I think it's the biggest club in England. That's what I think.
When I went up from the youth team to the first team at Internacional, it was a risk - they were almost betting on me making it.
I trust in Man City and what plans they have for me. If everything works out and everything falls into place, anything can happen.
I've never regretted signing for Real and the results prove me right.
Real Madrid is the most important thing that happened to me, both as a footballer and as a person.
I think when I first went to Man City, they weren't very professional. They were just starting out, and the men's team had just invested a lot into women's team.
I'm not scared of Bayern Munich.
When you hear Liverpool want you, you call your agent back in about five seconds.
I was never close to signing for Manchester United, no.
Juventus is growing, year after year, and we need a champion like Cristiano.
I'm delighted to be joining City. It didn't take much persuasion from Mark Hughes; they are heading in the direction I want to go. There is great potential here.
Pep Guardiola, when he was at Bayern Munich, he was able to reply in German in his first press conference.
I got Everton competing at the top end of the league with a midtable budget.
I want to be part of Man United's future. I'm a Man United person.
I would love to play for Manchester United and, if things go as I want them to, I believe I can achieve that.
