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.
OK, so I never had a transfer in my career, but I used to love deadline day: Dimitar Berbatov turning up at Manchester airport with hours to go, Robinho coming to Manchester City instead of Chelsea.
I am happy at Leeds and I want to stay. There has been talk that Leeds might sell some players, but all the players believe we can win some silverware next season and it is important that we are all kept together.
Everyone was saying everywhere that I absolutely wanted to leave Tottenham. That's not true.
Nowadays, it's hard to know if a player really deserves the money spent on him, because transfer values are high.
I was never close to signing for Manchester United, no.
It's down to the players, but when you're at Man United, there isn't a lot of greener grass on the other side. You are at the best place.
Just because a club says a player is not for sale, it doesn't necessarily mean that.
The transfer deadline can be a distraction if you allow it to be.
Ha, some days ago the same people were one hundred per cent sure that I'd signed for Red Bull! So much for that.
It's true, in the past there was interest from Barcelona, but I'd have been a ball boy there.
Everything goes fast in football. You can be transferred tomorrow, as you can be in one or two years.
I will not play for Tottenham.
If Neymar doesn't leave PSG, he will never win anything important. Especially the Champions League, which is the most important competition.
Manchester United? That's not an option. I am staying at Bayern Munich. Period. I had a great time under Van Gaal at Bayern, he has been very important for my career but I am very happy at my current club.
A lot of people they say a lot of things in the press, but I never said that I want to leave Chelsea, never.
I am an Arsenal player and I don't think about anything else. I'm not going to say no to anybody, nor am I going to say yes to anybody. I did not say that I was going to leave Arsenal to go to Barcelona, because equally Barcelona doesn't want me.
The day I heard Juventus were interested in me, my mind was made up.
It was brilliant when I heard of United's interest, an incredible feeling.
I've been linked with lots of clubs but that's what tends to happen if you stay in the same job for five years. It means you have brought a level of success.
I know the names of possible signings get fans excited, but it's a very fleeting kind of excitement.
There's one thing I've never seen in a paper. Jamie Carragher linked with this or that club.
January is an odd month for everyone because of the transfer market, while it can happen during a season to have a momentary wobble.
When a striker does well it is normal that he is courted by other teams.
Of course I would return to Real Madrid once I win all there is to win with Chelsea and after a long and successful career at Chelsea.
