The coach should keep out of the way... He is an important figure, of course, but is more likely to lose a match than win it. Matches are won by players.
In my private life I do what I like. The night is my friend. If I don't go out, I don't score.
If someone criticizes me, I strike back.
I'm like any Brazilian: I like to go out and enjoy myself.
Strikers are egotists, selfish. We have to be.
We Brazilians, happily or unhappily, leave a lot to the last minute.
God created me to delight people with my goals.
Will I become a coach in the future? No way. I'd never be able to put up with someone like me.
I have scored against every team, every country, every defender in the world.
I'm inspired by challenges. My life was always like this.
When I sleep to much I don't score. That's the reason I like to go out a lot.
When things are really good, really easy it's not cool for me.
When I was born, the man in the sky pointed to me and said, 'That's the guy.'
