I am always motivated. I am ambitious and I want to always improve.

For the people that I love I only have one face but for some people we can't have one face.

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.

For me Sir Alex was my father in football. He was crucial in my career and, outside football, was a great human being with me. Talent isn't everything. You can have it from the cradle, but it is necessary to learn the trade to be the best.

I'm happy of being in Real Madrid ... I've fulfilled my dream.

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 am not a perfectionist, but I like to feel that things are done well. More important than that, I feel an endless need to learn, to improve, to evolve, not only to please the coach and the fans, but also to feel satisfied with myself. It is my conviction that here are no limits to learning, and that it can never stop, no matter what our age.
