club given lived money players playing
When I was playing for Nacional in Montevideo, the players who lived outside the city would be given money by the club to get there and back on the bus.
argue proud ran red sent shown
When I was a kid, I got sent off for head-butting a referee: I ran 50m to argue a decision, I was shown a red card, and I head-butted him. I'm really not proud of that.
thick
I've been booed in Holland and in Uruguay - as a professional footballer, you need to have thick skin and just get used to it.
I don't read the papers or watch TV.
cross maybe odd
Away from the pitch, I'm a very calm person. I maybe have the odd cross word with my wife, like any relationship, but that's it.
work
It's especially important for my little girl to see her papa at work.
love madrid player
Every player would love to get to the absolute top, and Real Madrid is it.
tells
Every forward is selfish, and any forward who tells you he is not selfish is a liar.
When I say, 'I'm sorry,' it's because I regret something.
arrived hungry success
All I can say is that I have arrived with the desire to be a success at Barca, that I am hungry to win titles.
best
I always want more. I always want my team to perform to their best.
I normally try to be tranquil on the pitch.
criticise people
There are people who criticise me, and that's normal because of the way I am on the pitch. I get angry, I get tense.
overwhelms
On the field, sometimes passion overwhelms you, and you do things you regret afterward.
