Small players learn to be intuitive, to anticipate, to protect the ball. A guy who weighs 90 kilos doesn't move like one who weighs 60. In the playground I always played against much bigger kids and I always wanted the ball. Without it, I feel lost.

In the past, I had my idols but today I enjoy learning from all the soccer I watch.

La Masia is a place where lots of people live together but you are on your own.

I'm back? I never went away.

There was no time to think, I just hit it

I get the feeling people respect me and that there is affection for me. That makes me happy.

If you win without sacrifice you enjoy it but it's more satisfying when you have struggled.
