Liverpool are a very hard team to beat in front of their own crowd.
That first game was so hyped up, and it was obviously my first experience of a crowd in a World Cup. When I first walked out and heard the national anthem, it was just an unreal experience. I didn't expect a crowd like that.
But I think it's also hard to get into soccer here. I think purely on a time level on television as well because of the ad breaks. It's something to do with that as well. You can't show a complete soccer match here. Which I kind of find a bit of an odd thing.
If you are at Bayern and lose to Dortmund, it is common that the media voices criticism.
Playing against Croatia would be a dream come true.
I'm always a player who has taken fairly rough treatment, to be honest. I think my time in Scotland typified that because I think there was one game where I set a record for being fouled ten or 11 times in a game.
I first remember Wayne Rooney from a game at Old Trafford in 2002 when he came on as a late substitute for Everton and, in a brilliant 15-minute performance, skipped past me on a couple of occasions.
It's funny, you'll probably find me more often watching soccer than a football game, because I get enough football in my daily schedule.
What we are missing over here is the life of soccer.
I will go to Rio to support Brazil even if I'm not in the squad.
I once saw professional soccer up there in Seattle, the Sounders. I went and saw that. I'm not a big soccer fan, but watching a live game is unbelievable. And then I went to Italy and saw a soccer match; it's something everyone should do once. It'll blow your mind.
The first time I played England was at Wembley in 1991.
I am a big soccer fan, and a very big Liverpool fan.
I'm not scared of Bayern Munich.
Playing Bayern is never easy.
The good news for Nigeria is that they're two-nil down very early in the game.
I'm the only Red in our family! You know my father, my brother, my brother-in-law, my 14-year-old niece and two of my uncles are all City season ticket holders. So I'm gonna say 5-0 to United!
Don't tell those coming in the final result of that fantastic match, but let's just have another look at Italy's winning goalo.
There will be a game where somebody scores more than Brazil and that might be the game that they lose.
I love the derby because of the banter and rivalry. If you live outside of Manchester, you can take it out of context sometimes, where you can think it's all hate, and I don't think it is.
Huddersfield will want to win this one.
When you beat Arsenal, they are a good three points.
When you arrive in England for football it's a paradise.
The previous year it had taken England all their time to beat the full German team in an international and I had taken with me the programme from that match.
Of course, South Americans are different from Europeans; I knew that when we played them.
