I feel bad only when I play badly. Fortunately, that happens rarely.

What I do as an individual player is only important if it helps the team to win. That is the most important thing.

To me, being the best means proving it in different countries and championships.

I'm in love with football, but I just needed to recapture that strength to train and play. So many people helped me along the way that I'm afraid to leave anyone out. Above all, though, I want to mention the help of my medical team that has been working alongside me for the past two years.

I feel I have grown up. I am a man. It's important in my football too. When everything is good, I don't think you grow up fantastically, I think maybe you need a few problems to grow up. It is good if people in England have started to admire me. I think I have changed a little since the World Cup. I am stronger with my mentality and with my game as well.

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.

Maybe they hate me because I'm too good!
