When you arrive in England for football it's a paradise.

We don't have sports tickets, we don't have corporate jets. We don't have stadiums named after us.

It's a unique situation as well because England is a small country, so it makes it easy for the fans to travel. If we play down in London, they get buses and we'll get three or four thousand fans come down. They'll all sit in the same area and show their support for the team.

A multi-purpose stadium is an absolute must in order to invigorate our downtown and, simultaneously, let the rest of the country witness that we can get things done.

You know all these stadiums that U2 are playing? I've played in them. And I'm building up to it again.

To be honest, I think about the clubs when I write. But I should probably start thinking about stadiums, because the songs sound even better there - and bigger.

You want to play in the best stadiums against the best players - your Real Madrid's and Barcelona's - you want to play those teams.

So we are pretty convinced we don't want to play huge stadiums unless we can play them well.

In London, you'll be walking around and, 'Oh, there's the ground.' Every area of the city has a Premier League club. They all survive; they all exist with enough money, and that's good.

I don't know where football will take me because in football, you never know, but for sure, as a family, our home will be in London.
