This is the United spirit: you can play everywhere. If you want to win, you have to accept it. You can see Antonio Valencia playing right-back as well. Only because United play like a team. The team is the star, not only one player, thatâ€™s why you can put me and Michael Carrick at centre-back; weâ€™re going to win because itâ€™s the team effort and team spirit. Thatâ€™s why Iâ€™m confident. Iâ€™ve said that from the beginning â€“ in six years playing here â€“ the Man United spiritâ€¦ no one team has got that spirit. This is United. This is why Iâ€™m so proud to play here.

People have a good image of me. It's not theseÂ tramps who are going to tarnish my image. They should stop lying to the French people. It annoys me that people talk about 'your image'.
