Whether it's a friendly match, or for points, or a final, or any game - I play the same. I'm always trying to be my best, first for my team, for myself, for the fans, and to try and win.

It takes sacrifice as well as talent.

I've never stopped being Argentine, and I've never wanted to. I feel very proud of being Argentine, even though I left there. I've been clear about this since I was very young, and I never wanted to change.

My motivation comes from playing the game I love.

Ronaldinho was responsible for the change in Barça. It was a bad time and the change that came about with his arrival was amazing. In the first year, he didn't win anything but people fell in love with him. Then the trophies started coming and he made all those people happy. Barça should always be grateful for everything he did.

I would pass onto any young player to enjoy your football, play your football as you want to play the game, try and enjoy it and make the most of it.

Today I am the happiest man in the world, my son was born and thanks to God for this gift.
