Five amazing quotes from Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has always been an interviewer’s dream. Whenever he talks, everyone listens and his time in front of the camera at Manchester United was no exception.
A handful of lucky reporters in the club’s media team had the pleasure of sitting down to chat with the inimitable Swede and he never, ever disappointed with his pre-match or post-game comments.
Here are five of the most memorable Zlatan quotes from his time with the Reds…
"This club is massive. I have played at other massive clubs; every club is massive and, if it was not massive, it became massive when I came!"
"I have no individual targets because that I did already, after three months in England. I conquered England – it took three months."
"People who know me from the locker room know I need to suffer when I train; that is how I achieve what I achieve.”
"The older you are, the more experienced and intelligent you are. I feel like Benjamin Button. I was born old and will die young."
"Why do it normal? Do it brilliant. We want to be brilliant in everything we do because people remember brilliant."
