Why lie? I'm not going to be a hypocrite and say the opposite of what I think, like some others do.
I want to be one of the best players around in two or three years time, to be a decisive footballer.
I was saluted by Alex Ferguson when I was subbed and that made me very happy.
The great thing about him, is that he will not quit.
Today there are opportunities that no one knows if they will come round again in the future.
But the tricks I use are ones that will hopefully benefit the team.
It's very important for me to be distinguished in my own home.
Do you think I would enter into a contract with that mob? Absolutely no chance. I would not sell them a virus. That is a 'No' by the way. There is no agreement whatsoever between the clubs.
I'm happy of being in Real Madrid ... I've fulfilled my dream.
We saw that he plays with his heart too. He obviously loves the game so much and was distraught to lose in the final. Seeing him cry nearly got me going too.
There have been a few players described as the new George Best over the years, but this is the first time its been a compliment to me.
I have two Golden Boot awards at home. It would be nice to win another, but I wouldn't mind it if I didn't.
I've never tried to hide the fact that it is my intention to become the best
I'm aware that, whatever the circumstances, there will always be speculation about me.
