The most important thing is that everybody is professional on the pitch and gives 100 percent.

My objective is not to play for money, as I just want to leave good memories. That is the most important thing!

Some people say I run too much, and by the time I arrive in front of goal, when I have to provide the finish, I am tired. But this is just my way of playing. I need to do this to score goals.

Scoring a goal feels a bit like a liberating act. It is a mix of sensations that only strikers can feel in their own guts. We work for that, to score. It is like a commitment, an obligation we take with ourselves.

When Surender Reddy told me that I should play a serious role, I was quite confused; however, a lot of people told me that the audience has loved my part in the film. I thank the entire team of 'Race Gurram' for their support.

It's football, you work with humans and humans make mistakes. We will do everything in our power to prepare the players so they know to make the right decision at the right times.

Every team deals with obstacles throughout the course of the season, and it's as a unit that they need to be worked through. Injuries are part of the game, just like facing tough teams on the road or having one of your best players get into foul trouble.

My wife loves football, but I think she's resigned to the fact that I'll never make it there.
