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

Complaining and arguing will not help. We are fully concentrating on the game against the Czechs.

The goalkeeper plays in a psychological position, and he's dealing with mental things. I wanted to describe the things I've done wrong and, most of all, what I've done right, so that other people, including those in other professions, could learn from my experiences.

It's part of my game to occasionally send a message, one that may be unpopular to the outside world, but can be important for the team.

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.

Goalkeepers need an element of insanity.

The realization that you're not always standing down there on the field merely to win, to be successful, was very liberating. One can be successful by helping the team, the other players. All of a sudden I felt the kind of empathy for people that I hadn't felt before.
