I'm not the type who spends his free time in training camp playing with his Playstation or playing cards on trips. The other players thought it was odd: There he is, reading again.

I've never really seen myself in the role of the victim.

When you look at our programme for the next few weeks, you do not fancy a trip to the Oktoberfest.

I have a feeling we are going to be world champions, I can't really explain why. Brazil are probably the best team in the world in terms of individual players. But the team with the most gifted players do not always win.

I think Neuer changed the game of goalkeeping in the World Cup.

If I play, I try to concentrate on producing my best.

We are Bayern Munich and English teams always have trouble as soon as they leave the island.
