Fernandinho

You think about past World Cups - in 2006, it was a fantastic Brazil team, but we did not do so well that year. In 2010, the same: it did not go far, either - only the quarter-finals. But in '94 and 2002, Brazil did not play the best football but won the World Cup; they found a way to win. ”

I've played a few times in stadiums where the fans have been banned, and it's just not the same. ”

My first aim is to play well for my club, Manchester City. If I do, I am sure that will come to the attention of the national manager. ”

Shakhtar specifically are proud when traditional clubs from Europe come knocking, and I knew it would be quite hard to convince them to let me join City. Listen, I am absolutely thankful for the opportunity they gave me, but I also think I worked my socks off for that club, and it was time to look after my career. ”

For me, it is the trophies that are important, not the goals. ”

The Selecao is always treated as favourites, so we're aware of our responsibility, and the goal is always to enter every competition to win, and the World Cup is no different. ”

It is not easy to play two games, travel, and keep the same performance in 48 hours. ”

No matter how great a squad is, a competition like the Champions League is not easily won. ”

In the Premier League, the most important thing is not to give the team at the top of the table reasons to keep winning game after game. ”

I like every competition I can play. ”
