If you look at my career, I’ve never gone to a team that had fulfilled their potential.

When I played, I received racial abuse but I was just one of a few black players and we weren’t backed up by the authorities.

Man City needed something and when Johnson did something, something happened.

If I’d wanted to be an individual, I’d have taken up tennis.

I like stubborn players. At least they have an opinion. If they are right or wrong, this doesn’t matter for me.

I’d like to meet god. Not to question it, just to have a peak at what it is. I say ‘it’ because we don’t know what it is.

To play Holland, you’ve got to play the Dutch.

I know what it’s like to win things. You need a certain type of player with a determination to win. You see it in the eyes.

If there is a problem, and you don’t say anything about it, it’s like a cancer and it becomes bigger.

I’ve taken challenges with the big risk that it can all go wrong. But that’s what I like and I’d rather do that than be safe all the time.
