Sometimes you feel the emotion. You think this might be my last pre-season or my last Champions League match. But, overall, those thoughts aren't important right now. But the time will soon come.

I don't like to show my emotions at the board, not because they might give something away to an opponent, but because that's my style: I like to keep it to myself.

As a top player, you have to keep your emotions in check. You think you can control everything.

The emotions can take you out of a game.

Sometimes emotions can win fights. Sometimes letting your feelings out in a fight can win you the fight. When it means the world to you, it's not just a sports contest - a boxing match for money or belts.

You try to hide your emotions, so as not to show weaknesses to others. I believe it's the same for every sportsman.

You have a lot of emotion at the end of the race. It is not easy to control that when you win.

At the end of the day you have to keep emotions away.

I have the picture in my mind of how emotional I will feel if I win again.

I play very, very emotional. That's just my style.
