It will take time for us all to understand what has happened to us, but it is a joy to be surrounded by such happiness.
It is marvellous for us all. I have said that after all I have suffered, every time I walk into a ground to play is a victory for me, so this is just wonderful.
Being compared to one of the greatest players of all time is a sign that I work hard and with quality, but people tend to become obsessed with comparisons. Pele and I are very different; I am Ronaldo, I have my own characteristics an I wish to be jud
I'm disappointed, but we've still got time to do lots of things,
I left Spain with a slight sprain, the time for recovery was one week and that time has passed.
I'm here to score a lot of goals. It's my speciality, that's what I've been brought here to do, and I want to score plenty ; like I did with Barcelona. And here, there's every reason to think I can do it.
We lost because we didn't win.
I have ambitions I want to fulfil, to enjoy more success with Brazil.
I don't want my fans to have the same disappointment as me when I was refused by some players to sign my notebook when I was young.
I like playing in Italy. It was a challenge I wanted since very early in my career.
I am very ambitious. I want to enjoy this and then really go for it.
My life has always been a series of challenges and I'm psychologically-prepared but this is the biggest challenge of my life.
I'm here to score a lot of goals. It's my specialty, that's what I've been brought here to do, and I want to score plenty ; like I did with Barcelona. And here, there's every reason to think I can do it.
I'm sure sex wouldn't be so rewarding as this World Cup. It's not that sex isn't good but the World Cup is every four years and sex is not.
