If you love Senegal so much, why don't you play for them?

Some people come to Old Trafford and can't spell football, let alone understand it. They have a few drinks and a prawn sandwich but don't realise what's happening on the pitch

I am not naive enough to settle for anything less than a reasonable valuation of my worth.

People say I'm hard, I'm Mr Angry. I'm this, I'm that. I just want to win matches. There's no point going out there and being Mr Nice Guy. We get 55,000 at Old Trafford and I don't think they want fellas going out there and thinking: Ah, if we lose, so what?

I don't believe skill was, or ever will be, the result of coaches. It is a result of a love affair between the child and the ball.

The last time I was charged by the FA they had a murder lawyer in against me, so it's going to be a hard case to win.

If it had come to a fight, Patrick [Vieira] could probably have killed me.
