I was at Barcelona for many years where I won a lot of things and achieved a lot of dreams. For these reasons it holds a special place in my life.

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.

My heroes were always soccer players.

Of course, I follow Bollywood. In fact, it's widely followed in Brazil.

Football is about joy. It's about dribbling. I favour every idea that makes the game beautiful. Every good idea has to last.

No matter who you are it's the simple things in life that lead you to believe that you can achieve anything.

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.
