I let people say and write what they want.

I feel very strong as an individual, but as a famous footballer I know I am prone to certain things. All the media have a continuous interest for me. It varies from once a year to every day interest.

I personally think that we can win the World Cup. We are improving with every game. With such a young average age in the squad we can only carry on improving.

I really want be of great value for the team.

Messi is on a different level. The fact he is doing what he is year after year says that he is the best of all time.

People say it is part of the game. You win some, you lose some. But not for me.

My back to the goal, physically fighting off defenders, trying to bang my goals in, every week I have to do the business for this club. That's the life of a striker.
