You can come up with whatever tactics you want as a coach but if you don't have the tools to execute you will struggle, and if you don't have willing players that are ready to commit to the cause than you will struggle.

Well, I think sometimes I am brutally honest.

I think the way I played, I would have suited Sundowns.

I believe that it is not worth it to train from Monday to Friday just to have 20 minutes on the pitch or sit on the bench on Saturday.

I am very competitive.

People in Nigeria weren't happy that I went to Qatar. They said 'why did you go there of all places?' They missed watching me on television but sometimes you have to think about yourself and your future as well.

My faith comes before anything. It has also taught me to respect and admire people for what they are and who they are.

I always ask God if it is his will, and if so, then let it be. Whatever comes out of it I will accept it. That's the message I got and that's why I'm here at Hull.

I think sometimes players must have a wake-up call before they realise they are back in African football.

Aboutrika has done well with Egypt, winning the Nations Cup in Ghana, as well as helping Ahly win the Champions League for a record sixth time.

I often come across Russians and they're all interested in football.

I pray a lot and it has helped me throughout my whole career to stay calm and focused.

It's always good to have more than one player who can take free-kicks or penalties.

The way I learnt to play was to go out there and enjoy myself. I never thought I'd play professionally.

Well of course, as a fan I think I'd love to see Neymar play.

I can't play football forever, I am not a greedy person.

Nigerian footballers who have played in Russia improved their ability here.

Messi and Ronaldo have dominated world football for a decade and, given the nature of football, at a certain point the baton will have to pass to someone else. I think Neymar has a great chance of filling that role.

I love showing off my skills on the pitch. You can make opposing players look stupid.

I think I maximised my opportunity at Bolton, changing the mindset of the people from when I arrived till the time I left.

I realized at a very young age that I had a gift to do special things with the ball.

I have been following the Premier League very closely because once you have been a footballer you have an affinity with the game.

Preparing well for a tournament sometimes is not enough to win it as you also need a lot of luck in order to win.

I've trained my whole life to be a winner and if I know two things it's that to be the best takes passion and persistence.
