If you have John Terry, Frank Lampard on the pitch, they've seen everything in football. And it gives you a good feeling because they know what to do.
Andre Schurrle
That is the only way to survive in the Premier League. Every game is a battle, whether you're playing the top team or the one at the bottom of the table.
It's not that easy to come from the Bundesliga into the Premier League. It's something different.
Obviously, I talk to young players and help them a little bit with my experience.
Mourinho is known for getting under players' skins, tickling and goading better performances out of them.
I'm the guy who tries with my qualities to help on the field.
If you don't work hard, all the talent doesn't help.
Of course, for the national team it is good to have Mesut Ozil in good form.
I am hungry, I want to achieve something with Chelsea.
Mourinho has a great personality and is just a cool guy.
It's cool for young guys to see what their idols are doing.
I played there a couple of times in Leverkusen, playing as the striker was nothing new for me I knew what to do - it was fully okay.
I had a fantastic time with the national team.
Claudio Ranieri knows the Premier League very well and he knows how to win games.
It's not easy to adapt to losing a lot.
For a striker to come in and score his first goal is always important.
We had a difficult last two years when I was in Dortmund. It was not easy, the relationship between fans and players.
When I joined Leverkusen, they were regarded as a quiet club.
When I was in Germany I never played like this, so defensive - almost a left-back, but that is good for me because defensive work was something I missed in Germany.
Poldi can do much more than just play on the wing.
I've learned so much from Mourinho and love being in his team and learning new roles.
You win the World Cup, you're just flying.
In England you get fitness from playing.
Being a substitute can be an advantage. I know this situation from the national team. And I am also good as a player coming from the bench.
I think I showed my qualities and the way I can play.
When you come to a World Cup with Germany you are expected to win it.
Winning is what matters. It's the most important thing.
You can play perfect football, lots of one-touch stuff, and you lose. But that's not what you want, you want to win.
There's no point in playing well and losing.
Germany are always among the favourites at major tournaments.
I have been a Chelsea fan ever since I was a kid and I felt well there right until the last day.
Wolfsburg might be a smaller club when you look at reputations and I thought about it long and hard. I could have stayed at Chelsea. Mourinho told me that I would get my chance. You have to make a decision, though, and in the end I only wanted to play football again.
When you speak about United, you speak about a big club and you know they have great players.
I think that the stiff competition for places is a positive thing.
In the end, not only the team, but the players themselves benefit from having to prove their worth time and time again, too.
I always do my utmost both in training and during matches.
The coach is the one who eventually decides who makes the starting XI.
I had a good time at Chelsea and was accepted in the team, so it's difficult to explain why I left. My performances were good as well, but there was a time in my second season when I felt I didn't have the manager's trust any more and I didn't play many matches from the start.
I don't know why Mourinho didn't trust me.
Always give everything for the team, always chase the ball, never accept defeat.
I am Andre Schurrle and I don't compare myself to others.
I definitely did not fail at Chelsea. I always had my chance, scored important goals in the first season. At the end I just wanted the transfer, although Jose Mourinho wanted me to stay.
I love Chelsea still. I'm not frustrated; it was a great experience.
You just have to be clear in your head and take the chances when they come.
I don't think you would find any player in the Bundesliga who would say that they would not at all be interested. Chelsea would have been very interesting for me. You don't get a chance like that very often in your life.
We need to show we could be in a fight, a battle, and win it. If that means we have to be willing to do something that takes a yellow card, then we have to be ready to do that for each other and I'm happy to do that.
I think I'm quite a clever player and that I realise there are times when I can be offensive but others when I must be more compact and work for the team, because that is what matters.
With a line of six in the defence and then three in front of that, it's not always easy to find the spaces to score the goals.
I want to win titles with Chelsea.
I want to train hard, train well, and then help the team with my qualities.
