I've achieved a lot in Spain.

All of us make mistakes and the majority of us have missed a day's work for whatever reason.

As a person, I think you should assume the responsibilities of your actions.

I respect the fans a great deal.

I've never gone against any manager, nor have I talked badly about any coach, I've always thrown myself at any challenge handed to me and tried to understand and learn.

It is very special for me to be the first Designated Player in LAFC history.

I try to do my best and enjoy every moment at San Sebastian, because I do not know if I will stay here.

The most important part of my life came in San Sebastian: my new family.

I wanted to leave so much that when I heard I had a good offer to play and leave England, it was a case of me saying: 'I love it! Yes, let's go!'

To represent your country is always very nice.

I'm at my country's disposition.

Never been crazy enough about soccer to say, 'I'm a Madrid fan until death.'

I see something that I don't like, I prefer not to participate and say, 'Look, I'll leave you to it, I wish you the best, a lot of luck and I support you, but I don't want to be there.'

I enjoy playing but the moment the game ends, football ends and you can talk to me about anything except football because I don't feel comfortable.

I have never played in Mexico. It is something I have always wanted to do and I would not close the door on any offer.

Obviously, playing in a World Cup is always beautiful, helping your team is always cool, but when you don't think it's time, you have a clear conscience.

At the end of the day, when you're young you think you're invincible.

A lot of times I made the wrong choices and you learn from this, what is good, what's bad.

Having a family has helped a lot with my partner, my son. It helped me focus on soccer.

Of course I always want Mexico to win.

It's part of improving every day, being willing to be receptive of the people who know and see things from the outside that you might not notice in the inside.

I don't have any problem with people correcting me and telling me how I can be better.

Who could say no to playing with Messi for four months and then coming back to L.A.?

About Rafa Marquez, I don't think there are enough words to describe what he represents to all Mexican players.

We want to do something important in the World Cup, and hopefully I have the chance. If not, well, life goes on, I'll keep working the same way and supporting my teammates.

My life was always one year here, I squeezed out what I could from it, enjoyed it the most possible and changed. That was the way of life I had.

The best decision I've made was the one to stay in San Sebastian.

I'm really happy here, playing in L.A. I want to be here.

It's not only the things I want, football is a business and you know how it works.

I'd 1,000 times rather go see an NBA game than a football match.

At the end of the day, every person makes their own evaluation and their own criticism and it's all respectable. I don't want to say who is right and who isn't.

No one person is going to come in and change the world, or a national team.

When a player joins El Tri, he doesn't want to do things the wrong way.

What people don't understand is that no one is perfect.

I think that people in Mexico talk too much.

I don't know whether I would return to El Tri.

I was playing for 12 years in Europe. It's a long time you know. When you are from Mexico you miss your family, you miss your friends.

When I was in Europe maybe you are tired for all year - playing, training, training, training.

I think that what I don't like is everything that surrounds a footballer. The fame, the people idolizing you, the press, not being able to have a normal life like normal person. I think that is what has held me back a little in football.

My family has taught me to keep my feet on the ground and be humble.

You can have all the fame and all the money, but the important thing is the person. All the rest can help, but it isn't important.

In the end, the important thing is that you decide where you will be happy and where you can do well, to show that as well as being footballers, we are people.

We want to make our fans happy and I hope we can achieve that.

You live each rivalry in a different way.

As of myself, I work with Heineken, who is a huge sponsor that enables us to get inside a kind of market that would be very hard to get into without its help.

I've always been Carlos Vela - sincere, original and true to myself.

A part of me will stay at La Real and San Sebastian.

It's been incredible and I thank Real Sociedad. I've given everything to the club.

I'm with LeBron team all the way!

I always worked to be the best player.
