As long as you're being a copycat, you will never be the best copycat.
It's such a crazy league, the Championship. People used to say that to me, and when you are in the Premier League, you don't really take notice. It's a good league; it's tough, and I like it. But the Premier League is where I want to be, with Villa.
The league, I think, is doing well. It's growing, it's maturing, and it's becoming a better league.

Probably the Liga MX or the American league, there are a higher number of competitive games than in the Spanish league or the English league.
My heart is with the WNBA. I've had success in the league, I've loved the league. I'm a true fan of the league.
Everyone in the league has a journey or a legacy, whether you're in the league for five years or you're in the league for one year.
It's clear that anyone who plays in Belgium or another league with less quality still has a chance of making the Champions League or the Europa League.
When I was younger, I could never have imagined that me at 24 would have already won a league in Portugal, a league in France, a league in England, and playing for the national team.
I love the Premier League, I absolutely love Premier League games. Removing myself a footballer, I watch the Premier League. It's a great league, fantastic football is played in it.
What puts you in a different level is if you win the Premier League, and you're capable of challenging every season for the Premier League, and if you play Champions League, and you really believe, and you're a real contender one day to win the Champions League. That's my objective in Tottenham.
It's hard work to find your own voice and not to copycat anything.
I have to be very original and have a strong musical voice. I don't want to be a copycat of anybody.
We know how important both competitions are, especially the Champions League since it's such a special competition, but we want to win the league too. We take it game by game - concentrate on our league games, win them and then start thinking about the Champions League.
Of course the Premier League is the most difficult league in the world because it's so even. I think you can't really compare other leagues with the Premier League. In the Premier League, every team can beat every team, and in football, that's something where you can have surprises.
In my mind, there are too many copycat web products out there that are doing the same thing.
There's no harm being a copycat. If someone else is doing a good job, copy. It's free.
