| Elano: I want to stay for years
14/12/2007 14:23
Elano is already looking years into the future after the superb start to his City career.
The mercurial Brazilian has been a huge hit with Blues fans since his arrival from Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer, becoming the cornerstone of Sven-Goran Eriksson's new look side.
He says, "It's very difficult to talk about myself but I believe I can give even more than I have so far but I like to do my talking on the pitch - that's where I can show the City fans what I can do.
"I've only been in England for six months but I am already talking about staying here for 10 years or so.
"When I finish my career, I will return to Brazil to live but I am enjoying being here in Manchester.”
The Blues' good start to 2007/08 has surprised and delighted Elano, who adds: "I think our start has surprised everybody, taking into account that the club brought in so many new players and had a new manager.
"It is down to the competence of the manager and players that we have started so well and we are doing a good job considering the Premier League is such a tough league.
"I had never met Sven before and wasn't even in the national team at the time, but it was nice that Dunga spoke with him about me.
"The fans seem to have taken to the way I play and that makes me very happy because I arrived here as an unknown and I think this is a result of my dedication and hard work during training - and because we've started so well. I'm sure if we can carry on the way we are, the whole team will get the appreciation it deserves."

| Hmm, I would have posted the article I just put on the Castillo thread in here if I'd known you were going to start this. It's just more quotes from what I presume is the same interview. He seems like a very humble bloke, which is really nice to see when you consider the words and actions of some of the England 'stars' around.

| Not all of them. Just the ones that go round acting all Billy Big Bollocks, then proceed to fail to qualify for major tournaments

| If he becomes one of them, rest assured I won't be happy about it. I just hope he can remain grounded. Except when he needs to leap majestically to clear a cross, of course...

Joke methinks.
Though I bet the "what a nob" comment is true in the "longest in the shower" sense...
