“It's disappointing to lose a game with the chance to go into the semi-finals of the Champions League.”

“I gambled when I left QPR to go to Aston Villa half-way through the season when we were winning every Championship game, and that paid off. You just get a sense inside you, and you have to go.”

“That's why I signed for Tottenham - to say to my two little boys, 'Look, on that day, Daddy won the trophy.'”

“You have to remember that professional football is a job, too, and some people have to get results on the pitch to pay to live.”

“I just want to learn and try to be the best player I can be.”

“I'm a defender first and foremost, and if I'm playing right centre-half, I am even more of a defender than the wing-backs.”

“I am thrilled to be signing for City and can't wait to get started.”

“I'm not looking into the future. I take every game as it comes, and as long as I am on the pitch and playing football, that is what keeps me happy.”

“I was unfortunate at Tottenham.”

“It's a big part of my game, attacking.”

“Sometimes you need to come out of your comfort zone a little bit.”

“Pep is highly intelligent.”

“I have justified why I wanted to come to Manchester City because I have won trophies and improved.”

“As a player, you don't put a price tag on your own head. You can't go around thinking, 'I'm worth that much.'”

“I want to be the best in the world - everyone wants to be the best in the world - and that's what I want to strive to do.”

“Gary Neville never seemed to know when he was beaten, and Ashley Cole never gets beaten.”

“Working under Pep Guardiola, a chance like that doesn't come along too often. That's no disrespect to Mauricio Pochettino, but the people that Pep has worked with grow as players.”

“I used to play central defence for Sheffield United. I had Chris Morgan at the side of me, which helped me a lot because, if I did anything wrong, I'd be sure to find out about it.”

“My boy always wants to play football, but I have to hide the balls. I lock them in a bedroom; otherwis,e he will just kick them all night!”

“I like to think I'm a grown-up, but it's just nice you can have a civil conversation with your boss, you're both on the same page, and you've had a text, not about football, just about golf.”
