I'm always motivated when I go out on the pitch.

I hope I can get many goals for Real Madrid.

I'm sure any player will tell you that to play with Real Madrid is a dream come true. I dreamt of playing here when I was young, at one of the biggest clubs in the world.

The best coach I have ever worked with is certainly Jose Mourinho. He has an unparalleled passion.

The worst coach I have ever had was Roberto Mancini. I never liked his training methods.

I'm not really happy with my football career, but I can't complain about it, either.

I had dreamt of playing for Arsenal and Real Madrid, and those dreams came true. Maybe I can dream of winning the Ballon d'Or, and that can come true as well.

I would not refuse to play for my country over money.

I want to win the Champions League, and I don't care about personal success.

It was a dream to play in a stadium as impressive as the Santiago Bernabeu.

Stephen Ireland is one of the most talented players I have seen, and Nigel de Jong is doing really well. He fights for his team all over the pitch, and he has a lot of character.

Football is a game. Don't get me wrong - there is money and other things in it, too - but it's still only a game.

What is the point in going into a stand and singing a song that you know is racist and then going out into the street and saying to me, 'I'm not racist. Come to Tottenham.'

Fans have to try to control their emotions, as we do as footballers.

As a striker sometimes you miss, and sometimes you score.

As a striker, most of the time you have three chances.

I had some great experiences in England in clubs who are among the best in the country. I was happy there - my family, too. The only error that I made was to sign for Crystal Palace in January 2016.

It bothers me to think I may never put on a Real Madrid shirt again. Madrid is the best thing that's ever happened to me in my life.

It's a special club, and everybody opened their arms to me from the first day. The fans and my team-mates treated me wonderfully since the day I arrived, and that warmth has made a madridista. Whatever happens, Real Madrid will always be in my heart.

With Mourinho, I learned a lot.

When I signed for Real Madrid, I knew it was a big club, but only when you're inside do you realise the magnitude of this team.

It is always nice to have a message from Jose Mourinho.

Harry Redknapp is a fantastic manager. He knows how to talk to players. You need that belief from your own manager. He tells you just to go out there and do your thing. That is what Harry has got more than anyone else.

You need to feel loved, and that is what I feel at City.
