Many stories are invented about me - too many stories; almost everyone uses me, and I'd say about 0.01 percent of the gossip is true.

Even if I don't always behave as I should, this still doesn't explain why so many people have something against me. But you know how it is. A lot of people vent themselves by coming to the stadium to yell at me. I hope it's not racism. I tell myself that it's not racism; it's because I'm tough, and I repeat this to myself.

The talent God gave me is beautiful and wonderful, but it is difficult because you are always facing other people keen to judge you. There are few people with such talent, so there are few able to judge what I am doing.

My public image is absolutely not a fair reflection of who I am.

I want to be the strongest player in the world and score a lot of goals. To do that, I have to improve in every area.

I have my life, my world. I do what I want, without annoying anyone.

When I lose my temper it's because I decide to. If I do something it's because I want to do it.
