When you're in the semi-finals of the Champions League, you need to be really good and need a little bit of luck.
Finishing second and getting in the Champions' League quarter-finals or semi-finals is fine, but at the end of the day you need to take some silverware.
The thing about Champions League football is it can turn on an instant. You can have a very good, solid team over the course of the season, but the Champions League is more like the World Cup, where your fate can be decided in a second and you need a bit of luck too.
I won three FA Cup finals, two League Cup finals, and played in one of United's two Champions League-winning finals. But I lost in a lot of finals, too: the FA Cup in 1995, 2005 and 2007, the League Cup in 2003, and the Champions League in 2009 and 2011.
It's disappointing to lose a game with the chance to go into the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Being a young kid from the hood in Paris, growing up in poverty and then scoring the goal that took Chelsea to the Champions League semi-finals, that felt like a great achievement.
You need luck, you need your key players, you need to be in the best shape, you need all of that to be champions.
They (Bayern Munich) lost in the semi-finals of the Champions League to Real Madrid last year, and the year before that were beaten in the final by Manchester United, so their European pedigree is second to none.
To win the Champions League for a second time or even to have been in three finals and won two of them is a bit special.
It is a big title to win, but in the Champions League, you don't need to have the consistency that you need in the league.
I think in every industry you need to have a lot of talent; you need to have a lot of drive, but you need a little bit of luck.
Any strengthening of the squad, in a League and Champions League which demands so much, is a good thing because you need many top quality players.
There is no need to hide the fact that the Champions League is very important to us. We want the Scudetto, Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Italiana, but the Champions League is very important.
I've always said that to win the Champions League, you need to reach a certain stage in good form and with good fitness levels.
Medicine in its present state is, it seems to me, by now completely discovered, insofar as it teaches in each instance the particular details and the correct measures. For anyone who has an understanding of medicine in this way depends very little upon good luck, but is able to do good with or without luck. For the whole of medicine has been established, and the excellent principles discovered in it clearly have very little need of good luck.
Good luck, little Wanderer, good luck. How I wish you didn't need it.
If I had a choice between the Champions League and the Golden Boot, then of course it would be the Champions League - no doubt the Champions League.
