I do not, in principle, comment on judges. Especially not him here.
I would like to play for an Italian club, such as Barcelona.
The bicycle has a soul. If you succeed to love it, it will give you emotions that you will never forget.
Champions play until they reach their goal.
There are some who claim that football is a matter of life and death. It’s an attitude that disappoints me. I can assure you that football is much more than that!
A lot of leaders fail because they don’t have the bravery to touch that nerve or strike that chord.
We did not underestimate them. They were just so much better than we expected.
A football player will not do well if he can not run around Funen without breathing.
Set the bar high for your goals and don’t stop until you get there.
It doesn’t get any easier, you just get faster.
If you worried about falling off the bike, you’d never get on.
Sports are such a great teacher. I think of everything they’ve taught me: camaraderie, humility, how to resolve differences.
They are some fools, excuse the expression, because they know the terms, and yet we must listen to the Norwegians’ pathetic statements every year. Many of us are fucking tired of that.
Sometimes it’s strange being me. I travel the world meeting people, I’m surrounded with friends and my life is full, but all the time I am confronted by a young man I have nothing in common with. He is me, but he is not me now. In fact I have been me now for longer than I was him, but no one wants to know about me.
When it’s hurting you that’s when you can make a difference.
Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.
Yes, the players showed an excellent attitude, but I am never satisfied when we are out on Lars Tyndskid’s field and then lose.
They are the second best team in the world and there is no greater praise than this.
Everything negative – pressure, challenges – is all an opportunity for me to rise.
Ultimately, it is the extra effort that separates the best from the second best. It requires ambition, determination, discipline and a willingness to sacrifice. If you add all this up, and even if you don’t win – how can you lose?
Use your success, wealth and influence to put them in the best position to realize their own dreams and find their true purpose.
Football is a fairly simple sport. 22 men chase a ball for 90 minutes and in the end the Germans win!
We had 99% of the game, it was the last 3% that cost us the victory.
Pain is temporary. Quitting lasts forever.
The beauty in being blessed with talent is rising above doubters to create a beautiful moment.
