What motivates me is an ideal of thinking about how football should be. And to try to get near this way of playing. And to try to improve all aspects of my personality that can help me get near this ideal way of playing football.

I am, of course, delighted but there was never any doubt about Sol staying.

I think we live in a very competitive world, and I love competition.

Young players need freedom of expression to develop as creative players... they should be encouraged to try skills without fear of failure.

Sometimes now, when I watch continental games on television, I'm a bit bored. I ask, 'where is the intensity?'

The best football players in the world still earn very little money compared to people who really earn money.

I know how important it is to have a helping hand.
