I strive to live with passion and not to be desensitised to life. Things matter to me. You’ve got to live like that. Otherwise what’s the point? It’s not possible to please everyone and there is no point in trying to be what other people think you should be. For me, it’s important to be who I am, not just to be different but to be as authentic as I can be.

Thats the beauty of sport. Sometimes you laugh, sometimes you cry

It has been an honour to be the coach of the best player (Messi) I have ever seen and probably the best I will see.

Out of everyone at Manchester United, I would pick out Scholes, he is the best midfielder of his generation. I would had loved to play alongside him.

There is no defence that can stop Messi. It is impossible.

Neuer is one of the best goalkeepers in history.
