I have a need to play intensely every day, to fight every match hard.

You can't get bored of winning. You can win 10 games in a row but you keep the same will to snatch the 11th. You always need more.

I once cried because I had no shoes to play soccer, but one day, I met a man who had no feet.

It doesn't matter how many times you win an award, it is always very special.

The door can never be closed for good to any player.

It's the first time it's happened to me and maybe the last. It's a strange sensation, not normal for me. I can't remember scoring three goals, even when I was a kid.

We must not let ourselves get driven off course, no matter what happens we must stick to our natural game.
