Edin Dzeko

I try to assist team-mates.

I've followed Roma because my friend Miralem Pjanic is here. It's a great club. I have a good relationship with Miralem.

Of course we all dream about doing big, playing for big clubs, but I wanted to play football because of the love for the game.

When you're a young boy, you don't think; you just go for it. When you have more experience, you have to play more with your head.

I'm happy I've stayed because Rome has become my home and an indelible part of my life, in an almost unreal way.

For every player, it is important to be fit and have a good pre-season behind him.

I can just remember what I have seen, and then I often think about how I do well throughout the match, and then, if I miss one chance, everyone talks about the miss. Only that.

If you do not play well, it is normal that they criticise you. But criticism is part of the game, so you accept it.

If we start the season with negative thinking, we'd never win anything.

I will continue to be a big fan of Manchester City, to whom I wish all the best and many more trophies and happiness in the future.

We want to show the world that even if you go through some bad periods, you always have to think positive just to go forward.

Nothing compares to Rome. Nothing. People there are crazy about football - in a positive way.
