LEROY SANE

I always enjoy myself.

I don't have any problem with criticism. It's an incentive to refine myself.

The World Cup has special games, and losing them hurts more than the other ones.

It's good to have some older friends: they have a lot more experience than us young ones.

I only focus on myself. I want to improve myself.

There is definitely a big difference from the Bundesliga to the Premier League: it is completely different, and that is why I think we need a bit of time in the beginning to get used to the league.

I try all the time to improve in the game, training all the time, and to help my team with assists or goals.

Criticism is normal in football.

To relax in the Premier League is not good.

I needed a little time to settle, to know the Premier League, the people here, how they are, and to know the players. I had to find my confidence.

You shouldn't drink two litres of Coca Cola every day.

The Champions League is a really tough tournament, and every single game is really special and difficult.

I like to play wide, but as a youth, I played more in the middle as a 10.

I have inherited pace from my dad, and in terms of the physical side with the balance, I have inherited that from my mum.

Kyle Walker thinks he's quicker than me. In games, it's different: you run different distances, players are in different positions, so I don't know. But one day, we will see!

If you don't get challenged, then you can't find out how good you are.

In Germany, my focus was mainly on dribbling.

My favourite meal is penne carbonara - that's good for an athlete, right?

I stand out a little bit with my hair, so I make sure I wear a hood!

Everybody knows anything can happen in the Premier League: every team can beat every team.

I was born in Germany, grew up in Germany, and when I was becoming a professional footballer, I felt like a German.

I am not someone who watches every game from the Bundesliga, the Spanish League, or even the Premier League. Of course, if there is a good game, like in the Champions League, I will watch it.

I had to go step by step to get used to the training and to the system of Pep Guardiola.

When I was young, I always wanted to play in the Champions League.

It's important on the pitch to have fun, to enjoy the game, because it generates a good feeling around the club.
