But I don't want to be compared to anyone like to impose my own style of play and do the best for myself and for the club here.

English fans love spectacular players like Alan Shearer and that is exactly what United have now signed. He has magic in his boots. The first thing you notice about him is that he is incredibly quick and very, very powerful for such a young man. He has great, close control and his technique is excellent. He believes he can do anything with the ball, and that confidence makes him very special indeed.

People that really know me, they adore me.

I don't have to show anything to anyone. There is nothing to prove.

I'm sure that I'm a winner person. I'm sure that I win more than lose.

I am very happy to be signing for the best team in the world and especially proud to be the first Portuguese player to join Manchester United.

I have a few tricks and dribbles which I use a lot and when I am playing well, it is natural that they become easier. But the tricks I use are the ones that will hopefully benefit the team. What I do as an individual player is only important if it helps the team to win. That is the most important thing.
