E and Woods are incredibly talented individuals that I am so blessed to have been grouped with these guys. To have met these guys in life, to have met such great guys that I call my family.

I didn't expect to become the guy who people look to do something cool in the Rumble in terms of avoiding elimination.

Playing video games, as funny as it might sound, it's a very important part of our day. Our schedule is so hectic, chaotic, demanding that we need an outlet. We need ways to express ourselves and let our energy out.

My dad is actually from Ghana in West Africa, and I was actually born in Ghana, too, and came to the United States when I was two years old. It's always football over there, soccer, but becoming a Massachusetts native, you can't help but get sucked into all the sports.

When I come to a baseball game, I appreciate the athleticism of these top-tier athletes. When they come to our shows, it's the same thing.

WWE is all about doing things that have never been done.

I always want to go up against the best competition, I want to have as many championship matches as possible.

For me, life is about being happy. Life is about enjoying and that's it.

My wish was to finish my career at Arsenal, but there are always banana skins.

Individuals are very important but team spirit is the key - it is the most important thing.

I love Arsenal, it's the club of my heart.

If you want to be successful, you need to work as a team.

It can happen in football that you argue with somebody in training but when you are not even talking on the pitch something has to change.

I had problems with certain players at Arsenal, especially one, whose name I will not say because I don't want to feed the controversy.

Kieran Tierney's work rate is just amazing. He gives 100 percent in every game, he makes lots of runs and makes lots of assists too. He defends, he goes forward, he is every inch the modern left back.

I am passionate about the FA Cup.

Wenger built this club and it is hard to imagine Arsenal without him.

Whether I start or not, I will do whatever I can in whatever way to play my part.

With team spirit, you can win anything.

When the league starts you know that anything can happen.

I have never looked to put a spoke in anyone's wheel at all.

It's very important to know what you are facing, whether you are going to be part of the team or just a squad player.

I will keep playing for the national team until I feel I can't offer them anything.

As players, we have the best job in the world and if the manager said, 'You haven't worked hard enough, you will only get half your wages this week,' it would make the players fight harder.

You can't keep changing managers. Every time the players have to adapt to a new strategy and the thinking of the new manager, which is really difficult and takes time.

Stephen Keshi is a good coach and he has changed Nigeria into a respectable team.

I love Africa. I am very grateful for everything I have in Europe but everything I'm learning I want to help my continent to get better - in football as well.

When I was a young boy I sold newspapers by the side of the road. I cleaned the shoes of people for less than a pound a time. I was 12 years old but I had to do it to eat because my family was so poor.

Anything can happen in life. You take your car, you drive your car every day in the same road and one day you just have no concentration - accident. That's part of life. It can happen to anybody.

My job is to try do the best for the team, like every other player.

Managers come to clubs bringing players with them and they want to pick them at all costs - whether they are any good or not.

Martin Keown was really competitive but Thierry Henry was similar, he wanted to win every game.

For me, I'm a fighter and I like to play for big clubs because that's where you improve yourself. Every day at training you have to give a hundred per cent to be picked by your manager.

When you do a good tackle, or block, the Kop they really appreciate that and they let you know it.

I'm a professional footballer and, to me, playing regularly is the most important thing; money is secondary.

I won the title with Arsenal in 2004 and it is harder to defend it the following season.

I love the FA Cup.

I've been observing Ramadan during all the years I've been in football. It's very important that you eat well. It's important that you eat the right food because you can gain weight or you can have less food in your body.

It is all about working hard, focusing and doing our job.

In official competitions there are mistakes you don't make or you pay for it dearly.

Kieran Tierney is a lot like Ashley Cole in the way that he bombs up and down the flanks and that he is also so physically strong. He plays every game as well. He is not the tallest but he is a fighter and he is strong. He crosses, gets back and defends. He is a very good player.

There is great respect for Liverpool in the Ivory Coast.

My dream is to win the World Cup with an African team, for my continent.

When I played football I wanted to make people happy. This is the way I am. I can't be someone else.

I have always been the kind of player who tries to help those around me.

I can learn so much from working with Brendan Rodgers, he is a top manager.

Every game is challenging and sometimes things don't go well for you but you need to be able to come back and carry on fighting.

A season is like a marathon and there will be plenty of ups and downs.

I love playing at the same club as my brother.

I was better than certain players at Manchester City but I was left on the bench. Before I left the club, I told the people in charge that they would regret letting me go.
