As professionals, you always have to perform to the top of your ability.

I don't take the ball in the middle of the pitch and dribble past six guys.

Sometimes I watch past goals, but I don't watch them because I think that it'll help me to score in the next game.

I have spent much of my youth on artificial pitches. The body can feel a little heavier, but the ball is there quicker and cleaner.

Buddhism allows me to feel well, tranquil, and very happy inside. This is good not only for football but for my life in general.

I also watched a lot of football and sports. I haven't had much time to watch too much TV lately.

I want Dubai to be a place where everybody from all over the world meets each other, don't think of fighting or hate, just love it, enjoy their sport, and that's it.

In sports, a team is surrounded with people with different backgrounds, with different races, and with different religions. In order to win, everybody comes together. I feels like that's what the U.S.A. represents. Everyone just has to come together in order to win.
