I highly appreciate the work of Ed Woodward, the CEO of Manchester United.
I have felt part of this club when I have travelled all around the world and been recognised as a Manchester United player. And when you're a Manchester United player you will forever be a Manchester United player.
Manchester is obviously is a huge footballing city with Manchester City and Manchester United there - and I really like this accent because my agent is also from Manchester and my girlfriend's family is from Manchester.
With Manchester United I want to win. I therefore do not pay attention to what happens in other clubs, I'm totally focused on Manchester United.
I read about Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the newspapers. I would love for him to come to Manchester United; I've said this for a long time. He was born to play for Manchester United.
I'm not saying I've become institutionalised at Manchester United but my qualities have been at Manchester United.
Being part of such a great club like Manchester United fills you with emotion, and you gradually realise how much the club means to the fans and the people who work here. They really live for the game, so that does become part of you, and you can only appreciate that having spent time here.
I think any player who joins Manchester United wants to win everything; I want to win every competition that Manchester United compete in.
I always say the biggest opponent for Manchester United is Manchester United. Every year I play for this club, I will say the same.
I think Manchester United is a much bigger club than any manager in the world, and the manager who comes in should respect what Manchester United is.
Madrid and United are the two biggest clubs in the world and it’s a real 50-50. It could go either way. Manchester was my home and still is in my heart. I love it. Because when people treat you very well you never forget that. And I will never forget United, the people who work there and the supporters. So I am so happy to be going back to Manchester.
To be a Manchester United player, it requires a certain level of performance, mentality, and you have got to be proud to be a Manchester United player.
My real name was Thomas Jones Woodward, so I dropped the Woodward.
If I ever leave Fiorentina, I would very much like to go to Manchester United because out of the three best teams in Europe - United, Lazio, and Barcelona - Manchester, in my opinion, is the best.
We just want to help carry it on and grow what Manchester United has been, whilst recognize worldwide maybe there is some more things we can do overseas to grow Manchester United which again benefits the community and the football at large.
Of course I miss playing for Manchester United. I played there for six years and that’s a long time. I am still interested in watching Manchester United and, you never know, maybe in the future I could return to play there. It’s always possible. I want to fulfil my contract here but, in the future, only God knows. I will not say I am not happy here at Real Madrid. I am really happy and everyone knows this is my club but, of course, I miss Manchester United, the boss, the players, because I left family there.
A lot of them want to come and play for Manchester United. They want to play because Alex has a record of giving youth a chance and we have the history and heritage of Manchester United.
