In Spain, we have a pretty good league - for me, I think it's the second-best league in the world. They play tough there, they play aggressive. The big difference is that we play only one game a week in Spain, maybe two.

Ricky Rubio

Castilian Spanish-speaking Spain is big, but is bigger in addition with Catalonian-speaking Spain, Galician-speaking Spain and Basque-speaking Spain. Democratic Spain, Constitutional Spain, can not be separated from diversity and the respect to the citizenship.

Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero

I've got Spanish grandparents and I've got a connection with Spain. But I consider myself English and I want to play for England.

If you play in France, Spain or Italy it is not the same football, especially when you play in England. Every game is very difficult.

I was right choosing to play with Spain. It is a pride; the decision was easy. I love Spain.

Thiago Alcantara

Defenders are always tough, whether you play in Spain or England.

The big difference between league football in England and Spain is that more teams compete here. In Spain, it is usually only two teams going for the title, which is not necessarily a bad thing because you get great matches between the two, but I think the English league is better for being more competitive.

David Silva

Spain and England have great leagues, and it would be nice to play there when the time comes.

Lukas Podolski

Every time Spain play England at any level, it is difficult.

Thiago Alcantara

I spoke to Mali and they understand; I've never lived there and I never said I was going there, my intention was always to play with Spain.

Adama Traore

I think the most important goal I scored in Spain was the first one because people were wary about me coming over to Spain as a player - they thought I was just there to sell shirts.

David Beckham

I spent a lot of my childhood in Spain. My nuclear family lives in Spain and has lived there for a long time.

Hilaria Baldwin

If you go in Spain, you have to play with another style. The English culture is the English culture. If you come here, you have to play in this style.

Claudio Ranieri

If you've lived in England for five years, for me, it doesn't make you English.

Jack Wilshere

When I retired, at that time I had a lot of proposals to play in Europe, England, Italy, Spain, Mexico. But I said no, after 18 years I want to rest, because I want to retire.
