I'm ready to lose my life if that's what Portugal needs to win. I'll play vs USA even if I play with one leg.
Mesut Ozil made me the worlds best striker
No, Wayne (Rooney) doesn’t need it (tips about style). He has his own style. But with hair he looks much better. He looks very good now. Before, he was a little bit ugly, but now, with hair, he’s beautiful.
When you're surrounded by flowers, you breath better.
The high point of my career was winning the Champions League. No one will ever erase that from my memory, in the same way that no one will ever erase the fact that I did it in a Manchester United shirt.
We don't want to tell our dreams. We want to show them
To me, being the best means proving it in different countries and championships.
I have my flaws too, but I am a professional who doesn't like to miss or lose.
I feel I have grown up. I am a man. It's important in my football too. When everything is good, I don't think you grow up fantastically, I think maybe you need a few problems to grow up. It is good if people in England have started to admire me. I think I have changed a little since the World Cup. I am stronger with my mentality and with my game as well.
Tuesday will be a tough night for me. It's like to return to the family who have not seen you for a long time. I spent a wonderful time there.
If you think you're perfect already, then you never will be.
Sir Alex has a special place in my life. In fact, he was the main man. I was not famous, I was not a star. I arrived at Old Trafford as just another young talent. He was the one who told me to do all the right things. He gave me the opportunity to play in one of the biggest clubs in the world. So he is one of the most important people in the world for me. I worked with Sir Alex for a few years and I know he deserves everything that he has achieved in his career. He works so hard, he is clever, he has experience, he is a human guy.
It would be a dream if 2015 was like 2014 or even better
My free-kick secret? I just look at the net and say take the kick, Cristiano.
