We talked with PSG, but quickly, I knew that it wasn't where I wanted to go. In France, for me, it was only Lyon. PSG could have enabled me to make progress because they have great players, but I wanted to experience another league.
I felt I could play in maybe a dozen tournaments a year as an amateur.
I know many people who are actually queasy about the idea that their kids may harbour sporting ambitions.
I'm happy at Real Madrid and can imagine ending my career here - if all goes well.
My future doesn't lie in the hands of Neil Warnock, it's in the hands of Robert Snodgrass.
There is a lot of things to weigh up when a transfer happens, and money is a big factor.
My departure from Arsenal was purely for sporting reasons.
There is no doubt that I would have won more honours had I signed for Manchester United as a youngster.
Maybe if I had signed for Chelsea I'd just have been sitting on the bench and what is the point in that?
Every guy that I've talked to would love to have that opportunity to go, and I don't think there's one guy who's ever said that they don't want to go to the Olympics. That's a dream and something that very few people get to realize.
It was amazing to have Mourinho call me, even though I'd been warned before how he would appeal to me. I listened to his arguments about why I should move to United. But at that time I was hesitant between staying at Leicester or leaving for Chelsea.
