The more difficult the victory, the greater the happiness in winning.

A penalty is a cowardly way to score.

Enthusiasm is everything. It must be taut and vibrating like a guitar string.

Everyone talks about the forwards, the players when they are scoring goals. But sometimes I look for the complete player not just the players who score but those who can pass.

I sometimes lie awake at night and wonder why I am still so popular and, to be honest, I don't know.

Another reason why I am always close to the people, because the communication is very important. When I stopped to play soccer I continued to... I continued to work with UNICEF. I did a lot of work with UNESCO. We did a lot of charity programme and games.

I don't think I'm a very good businessman. I act too much with my heart.
