In my professional life I do not have to like everyone, but when I feel negative energy with someone I try and avoid that person.

Guardiola took the decision to not play me in the DFB-Pokal final. He did not want me to win the trophy as top scorer, so he did not let me play during the end of the season. It was not really so important for me, but I felt it was a lack of respect towards me.

I realised that I had no future at Bayern, so I resigned myself to leaving the club and had to choose a new destination.
