You can lose to any team and then beat your top opponents and still not be in the top four.

I know I can succeed at Manchester United, and I want to show everyone that I deserve to be a key player in this team and this league.

I read about the history of England, of Manchester. I wanted to know how people here live, their interests.

Different managers give confidence in different ways. Some by hugging, others by talking or having conversations.

English football is really different to football in other countries.

I dreamed of being like Kaka, and Brazil was the home of that creative style, which the Brazilians call ginga.

Everyone is at their best against the champions.

The most dangerous area is the centre, which has to be either attacked or defended in football, and it's the same in chess.

Tactics are just a part of football because the players are playing.

Manchester United are not just some club. To be part of this club also means to be part of a great history.

When I watched the Premier League on the telly, I didn't expect it to be that hard. The opponents are all physically strong, real athletes. It wasn't like that in Germany. You must be prepared for it. But I prepared myself for it.

It is not only about being technically good, it is all about giving your heart for the club, giving your best.
