It's great to see that there are Dortmund fans in every stadium. That is something that motivates you, and in the end, you look forward to games even more, especially Europa League or Champions League away matches, when you see how many fans follow us. It is something very special.
I even got game time in some Europa League matches, some other Premier League matches and managed to make a start in an FA Cup match as well.
You have to focus more in Serie A, because in the Champions League, focusing happens automatically, as there are not as many matches, and they are all tough.
In my private life, I don't really do too much because the matches are so tough in the Premier League that it takes time to recover in between.
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.
It's difficult to beat German teams. They don't play as attractively as, for example, you have it in the English league or in the Spanish league. But to break a German team is not very easy.
I realise the Premier League is a very tough league and I know I have to be stronger.
If you analyze the German league, the Spanish league, the Italian league, there are two or three teams that stand out above the rest, and the other teams have a regular level.
Anybody can win the matches you can dominate, but it's the tough matches that are going to make the difference.
I am not someone who watches every game from the Bundesliga, the Spanish League, or even the Premier League. Of course, if there is a good game, like in the Champions League, I will watch it.
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.
Playing away is always tough in the Champions League.
I watch the Premier League, the Spanish and Dutch leagues, and a little bit of the German league.
I mean no offence, but we know that the French league is not the same as the Spanish or English league, where there's more difficulty.
My wish is that soccer in the U.S. become on the same level like the Premier League, Spanish league, or the Bundesliga.
I took Latin and Spanish. I can speak a very small amount of Spanish, but Latin has sort of gone away! Unless I was joining the Catholic Church, there would be no need to learn Latin.
