At the end of the day, I'm a footballer who has played at some of the biggest football clubs in the world and played with some of the best players in the world.

I work out with my trainer or do an hour of pilates at 6 or 7AM. I'm done by the time my household is awake.

There is always scope for football to be more charitable but a lot happens already. Personally I have always been passionate about charity.

There's room for boys' and girls' football in the world-that's what I believe.

Alex Ferguson is the best manager I've ever had at this level. Well, he's the only manager I've actually had at this level. But he's the best manager I've ever had.

Collectively with my design team we spent time working on the feel, fit and style to ensure the product is not only something I would wear but one which I would be proud to put my name to. I always want to challenge myself and this was such a rewarding experience for me. I'm very happy with the end result and I hope H&M's male customers will be as excited as I am.

I think of Milan every day, really. I was really happy at Milanello. I love the team, the staff, everybody who works there. I love the fans. I miss Milan badly, I miss Italy. I don't miss a single [Milan] game, and I don't understand those that say that Calcio is in difficulty. It's so competitive and complete.
