"City had loads of big names and would become champions, but United were already champions. The energy was different, the aura. I fell in love with it straight away." "My contract was up and City released me and signed a paper saying I could leave on a free.

He explained to The Guardian: “Some of my teammates call me Donkey. It’s not because of my football. “From day one, I felt a special relationship with donkeys.

And when I lost, I would go to the sanctuary. You look at the animals, see something human in them. It was a ...
