People are going to think I'm crazy.
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.
But I hope to maintain my credibility after I stop playing. Because, yes of course, now I play and I score goals and children all over are mad about me. Not just poor children - all children. We can make them really happy by the way we play, though I have to say that it's the poor ones that I think of most, the ones who can't come and watch the games at the stadium. We mean so much to them. That's why I'm so committed to this work. Later, after you've stopped playing, it's harder to have the same impact. But I will give it a go. I want to continue doing this kind of work for ever.
I still learn, but I think it's the best thing in life to have a kid.
I'm no longer thinking of Madrid. That dream is dead. The only thing I dream about now is Manchester United and winning the Champions League again in Rome.
I don't think about one trick or the other, they just happen.
People have to understand one thing: at the age of 18, I arrived at a dream club like Manchester United. It was a dream come true. But, even at that moment, I was thinking about playing in England for some years and then going to play in Spain. Even at that time I was thinking that way, and I always gave 100% everything.
If you think you're perfect already, then you never will be.
It obviously bothers people when Real Madrid win. It makes them jealous. There isn't a level playing field.
The last time I cry was when I won the champions. It was one of the best moments in my life.
I do my profession, my job, I give me all for my club... the rest doesn't matter to me. I don't care what happens on the outside.
I Don't Care About FIFA. This is bullshit.
People that really know me, they adore me.
I know that people have different ways to see me but I'm used to it.
