I've always had people come up to me to say that they admire the way I play, and then they tell me they're not United fans. That's always been nice.

We will go back to playing like Manchester United.

Every footballer wants to play forever. And if you are going to keep on playing - to enjoy it to the full - you want to win games, and as a result, trophies.

I hope this match never ends. When the match ends, the memories begin.

There's never been completion in my football career because I've always been striving for that next thing. You listen to people who have finished and nothing replaces playing, but I'm still excited about not having to put my body through what I've put it through. And not feeling the disappointment that I feel.

I have always considered myself to be very fortunate. To play for the biggest club in the world, which also happens to be the team I supported as a boy, means I have never had to consider changing away from Manchester United.

European football games or evening games seem to take a lot more out of you because you don't sleep that night. And as you get older, it gets worse.
