Surviving the first round is never my aim. Ideally, I'd be in one group with Brazil, Argentina and Germany. Then I'd have lost two rivals after the first round. That's how I think. Idealisitic.

Speed is often confused with insight. When I start running earlier than the others, I appear faster.

Coincidence is logical.

We must make sure their worst players get the ball the most. You'll get it back in no time.

Often you see people who move there and then, once they have arrived, the ball moves here after which they also come here, but then the ball goes there again. I say: just stay where you are, then you are in any case at the right place half of the time.

I always threw the ball in, because then if I got the ball back, I was the only player unmarked.

Before I make a mistake, I don't make that mistake.
