There are players that try to imitate others, but at free-kick time it is a personal thing. Every person has their own technique and routine when they stand over the ball and I have mine, I am not trying to copy anyone.

It's a dream of any player to win the bdo. I came really close to it and I'm very proud of my work, for being one of the 3 bests in the world, for the people who are working with me and that are helping me and supporting me. I hope someday I can win it.

My greatest idol– I’'ve always told everyone – was Robinho as he was from Santos and I was always following him, so I'’m a great fan. Among others, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho Gaúcho, Kaká. Many of them.

No one can compare to Ronaldinho. I remember his plays, his dribbles. I remember him winning every title at the Camp Nou. He made history at Barca, he made history with Brazil and he's still making history.

Everyone has a right to rest so as not to injure themselves.

I like boots that are comfortable. Better for fit and touch as well.

I have never been concerned about winning the Ballon d'Or or being the best player in the world. The best player is already here and that's Messi. And now I can see him from close up and help him.
