It gives me the happiest feeling in the world. I just love scoring. It doesn't matter if it's a simple goal from close range, a long shot or a dribble around several players, I just love to score all goals.
I do not exchange my shirt with ASSASSINS
I spent six years at United and I owe them everything that I am today. I made history at United and won many trophies. It was a pleasure to play at Old Trafford.
When you lose a person you love so much, surviving the loss is difficult.
When you've got a player who does what he does at that pace this late in the game than you know you've got an invaluable talent.
He's six-foot two, brave as a lion, strong as an ox and quick as lightning. If he was good looking, you'd say he has everything.
I'm always trying to be the best, on and off the pitch, is also very important. I've always taken things very seriously, since I was very young, and that's reflected in my career. Always being nominated, winning trophies for the club or individual awards, that's the culmination of many years of dedication, hard work and professionalism and that makes me very happy.
No one did what I did last season and for this I deserve the Golden Boot and why not the best World Player.
I have never played against anybody like that in my life and I was pleased to be taken off.
I have a few tricks and dribbles which I use a lot and when I am playing well, it is natural that they become easier. But the tricks I use are the ones that will hopefully benefit the team. What I do as an individual player is only important if it helps the team to win. That is the most important thing.
People have to understand one thing: at the age of 18, I arrived at a dream club like Manchester United. It was a dream come true. But, even at that moment, I was thinking about playing in England for some years and then going to play in Spain. Even at that time I was thinking that way, and I always gave 100% everything.
When I win awards, I think of my father.
I don't think about one trick or the other, they just happen.
I know I'm a good professional, I know that no one's harder on me than myself and that's never going to change, under any circumstances.
