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 know that people have different ways to see me but I'm used to it.

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.

He's a gift from heaven, he is truly a gift from heaven. Whatever he touches turns to gold.

I would be very proud if, one day, I'm held in the same esteem as George Best or Beckham. It's what I'm working hard towards.

My father was always in good spirits, he loved football. It makes me a bit sad because if he could enjoy seeing me now, what I have achieved, that would be a highlight in his life. But I'm sure that he watches over me from above.

People that really know me, they adore me.
