Quote
1 I left Real Madrid for the same reason [Angel] Di Maria did. We work hard but only others get the praise.
2 I’ve still got Paul Scholes’ shirt at home which I swapped with him once. When I was at Liverpool he was one of the players I liked most. Maybe he’s not valued as much as he should be in England because of the style of football there and because he keeps a low profile. Perhaps he would have been more valued in Spain, where midfielders like him form part of the ‘ideal.’ Fans in Spain rate him very highly and I admire him a huge amount.
Fact
1 Second child, a girl called Ane, was born on March 31st, 2010.
2 Son with partner Nagore Aranburu, Jon, was born on March 11th, 2008.
3 Spanish football player.
4 Won the European Cup 2008 as a member of the Spanish Team.
