I've seen teams spend £150 million and get nowhere near the Champions League. It has taken Manchester City a billion to get there. There are no guarantees.

All I can say is that I have arrived with the desire to be a success at Barca, that I am hungry to win titles.

I would love to win the Champions League once again. Winning big trophies like the Champions League or the World Cup is usually making people think, 'The players are not hungry any more.' Still, that's not what I feel.

When you have the chance to play a Champions League final, you have to win it.

The Champions League is a big ambition, and all the footballers want to play in it; it is a very important competition.

Everyone's got unfinished business with Barcelona. They're the greatest team in the world.

Spurs haven't got the funds they need so success has to be achieved gradually.

I had three very successful years in Germany with Borussia Dortmund, but I had the opportunity to move to one of the biggest clubs in the highest-profile league in the world.

The truth is my idea has been to always stay at Barcelona and see out the rest of my career here. Like I always say, one doesn't know what can happen in the future, but if it were up to me to decide, I would stay at Barcelona for the rest of my career.

I have never had any contact with Bayern Munich, let alone have agreed personal terms.
