Communication is important, and when you have an understanding with someone on the pitch, it is the most important thing.

Everybody speaks about City having lots of money, but it is not about that. It is about ambition, and I have spoken to Coach Mancini, and he told me, 'This is the best club for you.'

I have spent some of the best moments of my career at Manchester City, moments that I will never forget.

I know people will criticise when you play bad; that is part of this job, and I am fine with that. That is not a problem. The problem is the insults. That is what hurts the most.

When it comes to relationship compromise, it's a fine balance between doing something for your own happiness, and finding happiness in being of service to another person, in whatever way that ends up being.

I love Nirvana, Joy Division, and New Order - older alternative, I guess.

I want anyone who believes in life, liberty, pursuit of happiness to succeed. And I want any force, any person, any element of an overarching Big Government that would stop your success, I want that organization, that element or that person to fail. I want you to succeed.

I like the sound of laughter. I was the guy in the group of friends that would always make the friends laugh. And everyone was like, 'You should do stand up,' so I gave it a shot, and ta-da! They were right.
