I am somebody who... - I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I need that freedom, that ability to make mistakes out there. Because there's a fine line between making a mistake or being brilliant.

Soccer's not a game that you can restrict players, especially creative players and players who have proven themselves at that level.

Its not like you make a decision and everything inside you is 100 percent happy.

If you are passionate about something, that will enable you to be the best you can be.

To be the key player in creating and scoring goals, that's what I take pride in, and the thing I know how to do best.

Ive known since I went to the national team when I was very young that I was a different bird.

Do you have the heart to push yourself? If you don't, find a way to get it because talent will only get you so far. You've got to be hungry. You've got to have heart. That's just reality.
