I'm so happy that I was able to make it to 120 games for Germany; 175 games would have been possible. I've had many great moments, but particularly the way the fans supported me and the road to the final in Rio.
Even when I was training alone, just me and one of United's fitness coaches, I loved going onto the field, doing sprints, being at the training ground.
Rarely was a distinction deserves as the Oscar for best supporting actor, who went to the late Heath Ledger. His 'Joker' is really incredible.
I'm not a big planner; I decide by intuition.
I felt within myself that I needed to change what I was doing. I needed a new stimuli. So the interest from Manchester United was a perfect fit.
I'm not one to think of burying my head in the sand - I've always been a positive person and still am now.
