Football is very simple for me.

The Premier League is the place to be.

At the end of the day, we're playing a sport.

I enjoy creating goals more than scoring them.

I'm always proud to wear the colours of Spain.

I'm confident I can be a success in English football.

I think you learn to value the important things in life.

I pray every night to win the Champions League with City.

With football, you can never predict what's going to happen.

I ask myself in every game to be the one to take responsibility.

Guardiola has helped me so when I receive the ball, I have space.

The Premier League and the World Cup are equally important to me.

Once you win, you get used to winning, and that's not a bad thing.

I like to play in the middle, even though I can play on both wings.

Every derby match is different, just like every season is different.

When you sign players who are young and hungry, that's good for the side.

I've been lucky: I've won a lot of medals, but I'd still like to win more.

I am not too worried about not scoring many goals as long as someone else is.

People say I should go to Real Madrid or Barcelona, but my team is Las Palmas.

Winners don't believe in fate like others do. They simply cannot accept defeat.

Playing big teams is something I really enjoy - the bigger the team the better.

Football is a changeable game. From one day to another, everything could change.

Stuff happens in football. Sometimes it goes in your favour, sometimes it doesn't.

I'm a very quiet person, and I always try to take the pressure off myself before games.

When you don't win anything, at the end of the day, you cannot say it is a good season.

Pep Guardiola sees things before they happen, and that's an advantage - a massive plus.

I have my life on the field, but when I finish that, I want a quiet life with my family.

The way Guardiola plays suits me. It enables me to get into space in attacking positions.

The way I like to play, it really helps when I have more people around me to combine with.

Someone from the family is always with me in England, and for me, that's the perfect life.

I am an attacking midfielder, and I have scored goals, but I want to score more and win more.

I don't know what happens with other players or what is in their heads, but for me - just win.

The Champions League is the most important competition; it's fundamental to be involved in it.

I have always been strong. My mentality is just that way; that's why I've been around so long.

The aim for the future is always to win titles, become champions of the Premier League, and more.

You gain know-how from playing matches because every moment of a football match has its own rhythm.

Of course El Clasico is a great night, but I don't have an overwhelming desire to play in that game.

It goes without saying that the first few months after my son was born were the toughest of my life.

You just don't expect to see your baby fighting for his life. Looking back, you wonder how you coped.

Spain is such a competitive league, and for the players to give up La Liga, it's such a tough decision.

At City, we don't just have successful people: we have great human beings who know that family is paramount.

Thanks to the football, every time I go out and play, it releases the tension, and you forget about the problems.

I love to play in the middle to be in contact with the ball all the time. I'm very happy to play in that position.

I think that by playing centre midfield in the middle of the park, I'm doing something which comes naturally to me.

Everyone has an image of a premature child, but until you live it and experience it, you just don't know how bad it is.

Football in England is much more direct that in Spain - not just in terms of tactics or style but in the overall approach.

I don't waste my time doing my head in about stupid things that don't really matter and don't waste time worrying over nothing.

When you experience playing in two different leagues, you learn to adapt; you pick up elements from the best virtues of each culture.

Personally, I don't focus much about the statistics of goals and assists. I always want to improve, but I'm not worried about statistics.

One of the things I did well as a young kid was to link well with the rest of the team, so I reckon it's something which is natural for me.
