People remember the treble in 1999 as if we only had to turn up to collect three trophies. But on that cup run, we were 1-0 down against Liverpool going into injury time, and we turned it around to win 2-1. And everyone remembers the Champions League final in Barcelona, where the same thing happened.

The star-jump technique - that is a big part of being a handball goalkeeper, and I brought that move into football. It is a very effective way of saving a chance.

If you're mentally ready, you're willing to go the extra mile.

Peter Schmeichel

I played handball up until I joined United, both as a goalkeeper and an outfield player.

If he is having a bad game, a team-mate might feel Paul Scholes is not quite on his game, but a spectator wouldn't notice. Scholes, of all the players I have played with, has the highest bottom level.

Neuer is the best goalkeeper in the world by far.

Peter Schmeichel

It's not the mistake that's important; it's how you recover from it. If you recover instantly, in that second, it's gone from your mind. You play on and don't make the next mistake, and that's the sign of a top keeper. Joe Hart certainly is one of those guys.

When David De Gea first came to the Premier League, he was a small boy.

Peter Schmeichel

I don't think spending money is a guarantee for anything.

Peter Schmeichel

Goalkeeping is very, very much about confidence and thinking you are the man.

Peter Schmeichel

I would never bring in a player to make a statement.

Peter Schmeichel

Penalty shoot-outs are the most high-pressure situation that a goalkeeper will face, and in a World Cup, it's even worse because the stakes are so high.

Peter Schmeichel

My mother really wanted me to go to school and to university, but I was adamant that I wanted to be a football player.

Peter Schmeichel

Any beginning is difficult, but when you're opening the newspaper every day, and it's all about how bad you are, sometimes even you begin to believe that.

You will never see United manager Sir Alex Ferguson in the media taking problems he has or the squad has or the club has into the open. Never, ever. But you do see that at Manchester City.

Peter Schmeichel

People talk about the hair dryer and all this with Sir Alex Ferguson. What was really great about him, whatever happened in a game, he would spend whatever minutes it took him to get this out of this system and say whatever needed to be said. Once he said, 'Get your bath,' that was it. We knew that it would never return.

Peter Schmeichel

Football has changed. There are no more Zvonimir Bobans or individuals who win games by themselves.

Peter Schmeichel

When you look at the goals he has been criticised for, at some point they could have been prevented by a defender, or it was a misunderstanding. It is not down to Joe Hart on his own.

Peter Schmeichel

I'm quite good at golf. I'm not amazing, but I play a lot.

Peter Schmeichel

The fear of letting people down - that's the drive. Sir Alex, I think, if he was brave enough to say it, he would say the same, but in his eyes, the motivating factor is that you want to be the best.

Peter Schmeichel

There's no doubt: nobody can argue that Manchester United is not the biggest club in the world. It is.
