Brazil goes into every World Cup expecting to win - so when it is in Brazil it is expected even more. You can't understand what the World Cup means to our country.

If you're playing for five hours you don't want to score goals all the time and I loved dribbling. I could score a goal, but I preferred to dribble.

I am what I am thanks to my mother, my father, my brother, my sister... because they have given me everything. The education I have is thanks to them.

Ashley Cole is a fantastic defender. I have seen him keep the best players in the world quiet.

It doesnt change much for me really and my motivation remains the same - to create a beautiful future with Barcelona, winning many titles.

I have never imagined doing anything other than football, but now, thinking about it coldly, if I hadn't been a footballer, I would have been a musician.

The toughest opponents for me are the defenders who are tough in the way they play - where you can't see a way through.
