Obviously, I try to play the game in the way that I can help the team. I know I play a little bit more defensively now, more in the role as a team player, but I think I'm doing really well in that.

If I see someone I think is in a better position than me, it is better for me to give the ball. Now I shoot more at goal. When I was young, they sometimes said to me, 'You need to shoot more. You try to give it too much.' It is something that I learned. To try to take the best option.

I try to remain the same player and person that I am all the time. Eventually, you grow up and think a little bit differently. But the core of the mind and the person is still the same as before. It is one of the main characteristics that it is important for me to stay the same.

When we are playing, the whole country is behind us, and that gives us a good feeling. We are almost half and half. We are from everywhere. In the end, we are doing well as a team, and we love it when we hear the game is sold out in five minutes. That's the reason you play.

Mostly as a No 10. When I was really young, I played as a striker, but I grew a lot when I was 15 or 16.

Sometimes you just square the ball, and somebody else shoots, but some assists are so nice, and the passing is very important. We creators have a thing with the attackers.

Pogba's a massive player. I know him a little bit. He's unbelievable. He took a red card, and that's the way it goes: you have injuries and suspensions.

There will be ups and downs. Other teams will adapt to us, but everything will be OK in the end. We know we have to learn everything perfectly for this to work.

The way we play is the way every team want to play, but not a lot of teams can play that amazing way.

There is hard work involved, and maybe many people wouldn't like that. But for the best teams in the world who can do that without losing too many points, then it's just great.

In the league, if you have a bad spell, then you are running behind.
