Chelsea is one of the biggest football clubs in the world.
I thought always Manchester United can buy every player because they have a lot of power.
There is a lot going on with negotiations in the football business, and I appreciate some people think that it's a crazy, absurd amount of money.
I can categorically tell you that Mario Balotelli will not be at Liverpool.
When I told Arsene Wenger I was leaving, he said to me, 'I have £25m to spend on a few players.' My answer was, 'Obviously, Mr. Wenger, you are not shopping in Harrods. That will only buy you one good player.' Now I have been proved right.
In 2008 or 2009, every big club wanted me: Juventus, Inter, Milan, Barca, Real, Chelsea, Manchester.
I would not switch Bjorn Bergmann Sigurdarson for any other player in Norway.
At the last minute, from what I can gather, either Emmanuel Adebayor or his agent phoned us after they had agreed a deal with City and then did the same with Chelsea. He was desperate to get to either Chelsea or us.
