I know what it means to play for a big club. Big clubs, it's like that: if you win, everything is good. If you lose, it's your fault, especially defenders and goalkeepers.
I'm a lucky guy because I always play for a big club, and big clubs always try to win titles, and I love that.
At every club I have been at I have had a test in the first few weeks from the big players at the club. At that moment you define your success at that club, you either win the group or you lose the group.
I know the questions will be around the money, the amount Chelsea had to spend to bring him here but that's the reality of modern football. Big teams only want big players, big players are in big clubs, big clubs want to keep their big players.
I would have been happy to play in Holland for a big club, but I can see the point of selling me to an English club. It's very simple: Dutch clubs are not going to spend £16m on a player like me.
English football's history is so rich and the size of the clubs around, the so-called big six, are so big that it is difficult to break into that for a club like Leicester.
It is very tough in England. Every away game is hard, of course. And normally, if you're a big club like Chelsea, you're supposed to win games at home against smaller clubs. But in England, that's not the case. We must play well every game.
In the United States economic system you can lose big or you can win big. If you lose you wind up wearing a Hefty bag and sleeping in a doorway. If you win you can have sex with Catherine Zeta Jones when you're seventy-five.
England has always been famous for great goalkeepers, before I came. We had good goalkeepers, but we didn't have the big world-class 'keeper, maybe.
When you play for big clubs you have more chance to win trophies.
When the big clubs, and Manchester United is one of the biggest clubs in the world, is interested in you, it's an honour and it's a kind of an acceptance of what you play - so it's a good thing.
I have played in big clubs for many, many years. When you win, it is good, but when you lose, nobody is going to be happy, and the pressure is going to be there.
I started to do a study on how not to do stand-up comedy. Yeah, it's lonely work. You die, you die alone. It's you, the light, and the audience. If you win, you win big. If you lose, you lose big time.
Any time you risk big you often risk losing big. You can win big but you can also lose big, but you have to be willing to take those risks.
Liverpool is a club with a big, big, big history, and all the clubs in the world have a big history if the present is not too successful. If you have never had success, then nobody knows how it is, but in Liverpool, everybody knows how it was.
If you want to play a cool punk club, that's great - but punk clubs don't have any toilet seats. After a while, little things like that become big issues.
Managers lose more than they win until they get to the big 10 clubs; then, they start winning a bit more than they lose.
