I think we've got a lot players in the squad who are more suited to European football at the moment.

Any strengthening of the squad, in a League and Champions League which demands so much, is a good thing because you need many top quality players.

With some other top players I'm part of a company trying to put on events in Europe, especially Germany, but also Poland, Austria, Russia. There's so much talent coming out of the Far East now, and we want the same thing in Europe.

The Premier League is very difficult football and very different to when you play in Europe, but the player has to have experience to adapt, and this is the key point.

All players rolled into one: from defensive midfielder to attacking midfielder to attacker. I want to take the qualities from everyone. I'd like to get to the level where I have everything: Vieira, Deschamps, Zidane, Ronaldinho, Henry, Ronaldo. It wouldn't be bad, that.

Every player would love to get to the absolute top, and Real Madrid is it.

Every player wants to be as complete as possible and goals for a central midfielder are very important.

The player can only compete with the best internationally when they've committed themselves to this goal. They have to be properly supported until that point.

You need to have a big squad; it's important when you're in the Champions League, with the amount of games we've got.
