If you can achieve winning a league championship, that, to me, is the full test of the team and management because it is over the full season and you have a lot of problems you have to overcome.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You can be the best person in the league but if you don't win championships, something's missing.
The Champions League is the one thing missing from my career. When I look at the history of the competition and the people that have taken part, the top, top players have all won it. For many, it is why they have been regarded as top players.
The Champions League is the competition everyone wants to be in.
Some other people are very lucky and always get in to the very best teams at the very best times and therefore go out and score lots of championship points and be in with a chance of the championship.
I think success is the biggest challenge you have to handle in the National Football League; that's something we talk about a lot.
You have to choose whether to take the money or follow your own ambitions, playing in the best league in the world and winning titles.
If you have the right horses and the right team, that's the way to succeed. But you have to work, and you have to improve. Every year, you must get better.
You never know who will win and I think that is the great thing about this league (as a player) because it gives you a lot of hope that this could be your year.
I knew before I arrived that the pressure at a club that challenges for the title grows quickly. The season is long; we'll become stronger with every game.
It's easy to have a good season but if you want to have a great season you have got to win a major tournament.
