I think in football everything is possible.

I'm a person who thinks realistically but has dreams and fantasies as well.

You always need a certain amount of time to fully adjust; it was no different when I moved to the Bundesliga.

I'm a hard-working young man who believes in myself.

I think, when a manager has been at a club for more than 20 years, he can only have a positive impact.

In football, you get criticised if you are sent off. It's my style of play, and nobody can make me change that. Even if I get another red card, then that happens. You become cleverer, maybe look more, and since my red card, I think things have improved.

I never used to be taken seriously as a Swiss person.

I will give everything to help Arsenal win trophies and make the fans happy.

It's true that my father was imprisoned for three and a half years, and it was because he stood up for what he believed in. It's not a taboo subject in our household. We talk about it. After all, I want to know what happened.

I can't stand people who are backward. I am honest, straightforward. I don't like to pretend. And I will not change either.

I have a good relationship with the Albanian fans. But when you are called a traitor - that is such a harsh word. Most of the Albanian fans respect me. But 'traitor' is unacceptable considering the background of my family.

Individual quality doesn't decide games for us but the whole team.

It could be very costly if you don't have a clear mind during a tournament.

Lots of people talk about the character of our team, that it's not right and that we need to do more. But we always show that we can come back.

I am in an outstanding city, an outstanding club. The only thing that Arsenal has been missing is a league title.

I don't think Gladbach are on the same level as Arsenal.

I am still young; I am still fresh, and I want more.

I am a regular for one of the biggest clubs in Europe, and I want to progress still further.

When I think about a mid-table club like Everton spending £150 million during the summer, I am lost for words.

I guess I'd say I'm quite an aggressive player. Fair but aggressive, someone who likes the tough stuff.

I've picked up quite a few yellow cards in the last few years - a few reds, too. That was the case as a youth player as it is now. But I don't see it as a problem. That's how I play. If you take that away, then I wouldn't be where I am now. So I don't think the yellow cards or the red cards are too big of an issue.

I heard my new team-mates saying, 'We have got to hope that we don't go down.' I thought to myself, 'What kind of a mentality is that?'

When you want too much, you don't usually achieve much.

We are young; we are naive with money. Money can go fast. If anyone thinks he is something better just because he has more money in the account, then he can very quickly fall on your face.

Each month from our income - we have a separate account, obviously - we give 80 percent of it to our parents back home.

Arsenal is Arsenal. It's not a small club; it's a very big club, and it's like a family. It's very good for me because I love my family, and to have another family here is very good.

The expectations are high, so we know: If we do not meet them, there is criticism. We have high expectations ourselves. We are not happy with fourth, third, or second, either.

My goal is to become a key player in one of the ten best clubs in the world and become a leader there.

I've had four beautiful years at Monchengladbach and owe the club a lot.

Here at Basel is where I made my first professional steps. I came up and grew up through the FC Basel school.

Actually, it's normal when you come to a new club and country: you need to get used to the language, the philosophy of the team, the squad, the coach.

In football, you just have to develop yourself.

I'd no longer be the same player without my rigorousness, and certainly not the player Arsenal wanted.

What matters to every family in the country is that the cost of living is controlled.

We know that solving homelessness has to be about more than simply introducing a new raft of government initiatives, task forces and top-down solutions.

IVF became the only way for us to have children after I was treated for Hodgkin's lymphoma 10 years ago with fertility-destroying chemotherapy. And while the cancer treatment was predictably punishing for me, I was struck by the anguish of the IVF process and in particularly the failed cycle.

When Welwyn Garden City was planned, the workers homes were placed in the east, downwind from the factories in the middle, whilst the bosses got the larger westside homes in Handside. This sort of social engineering, including the absence of a pub, would not be acceptable today.

We believe that a civilised society can be measured by the way in which it treats its most vulnerable members and that being impatient about poverty is therefore simply the default position for modern progressive Conservatives.

To reduce repossessions caused by unemployment, Gordon Brown needs to look at cutting the rate of corporation tax for small companies to 20 per cent and the main rate to 25 per cent, while reducing the rate of employers' national insurance by 1% for the smallest companies.

Conservatives don't love business for some abstract reason. We love it because of what it offers our children. Hope.

Incredibly, a typical town hall official spends 85% of their time satisfying ministers in Whitehall and a puny 15% of the day for local residents. We believe that this relationship is upside down.

I always think there's some value in saying no with a smile.

When eco-towns were first announced we said that we would support environmentally-friendly development where local communities supported the home-building; where infrastructure was in place and where the growth was genuinely green.

The arts and crafts architecture of Letchworth and Welwyn Garden City is now hugely admired. Remember much of it was stimulated through open competition.

It's almost impossible to get the outside world to take any notice of homelessness at all.

My personal interest in IVF led me to author two reports into the availability of treatment on the NHS.

I absolutely believe that we're the workers' party. We are the party that has always been at the forefront of the big social changes that have promoted women and working people.

MPs are only elected thanks to the help of ordinary members - activists on the ground who traipse the streets, post leaflets and engage in millions of doorstep conversations, come rain or shine and without pay.

Labour voted to increase welfare spending again and again, without considering the effect that the spending was having, either on the people it was designed to help or those working to support the system.

Political shenanigans come and go, yet often what feels like a big deal in Westminster fails to get a mention on the news. As a result, the public wisely let most of the hurly-burly of politics wash over their heads.
