I try to speak with my team-mates a lot because I need them everyday.
I have my way of doing things, because I am that way, I try to raise my voice to motivate team-mates and make them aware that if they lose a ball it is not a problem, so I try to motivate my team-mates and to speak to them and, because I see the game from the back I see everything in front of me; communication on the field can help a lot.
I speak five languages, which actually makes it easier when you join a new team. You can settle much quicker because you can help team-mates much faster and better. People need to be careful around me, though - I can understand everything.
When you don't play, you need to support the team and your team-mates need to feel that you are behind them fully.
You have to think for your team-mates and give them positive response. Whatever happens as a captain you have to take the responsibility. Backing my team-mates and supporting them was the biggest learning.
Of course, I enjoy assisting my team-mates because playing no.10 is the position you have to serve your team-mates.
When you are a striker, you need to give a lot of effort for the team, to keep the opponent under pressure, to press them, to win the ball fast - that's what I try to do to help the team. After that, I try to make some goals.
When you are not playing, you need to train harder. You need to keep faith. And when you come into the team, you have to do exactly what your team-mates are doing to help the team achieve something.
The player who is almost at the same age as my daughter... I treat all my team-mates as brothers and I treat him just like a team-mate. I embrace them all and I am always around them giving advice because this is part of my job as a team captain and friend. I don't make them feel the gap in the age because I believe this should be normal.
Me and a lot of my team-mates still think and speak about the World Cup in 1994, when Sweden finished third.
I'm a player that usually focus on my team, try to give the best for my team-mates, and I don't look much at what the other teams do.
But I just try to do my best. I don't know if my game can influence the game of the team and how we play, but I just try to help with my football, for my team-mates and the club.
In every team, you have to win the respect of your team-mates, working a lot and really sweat blood.
I try to assist team-mates.
I had team-mates who didn't care if the team won or lost because they were not playing. I never wanted to be like that.
I try to transmit calmness and motivation to my team-mates.
In football, I've always been about adapting to what's asked of me, to what my team-mates need from me. I'm a team player.
