I'm always in the 'butcher' role. But the only way to stop Messi one-on-one is to foul him. Otherwise, if I'm alone, I'll only get the ball one in 20 times. I have to use other weapons, I know the best way to stop him. I know he does not like playing with his back to goal, you must be right on top of him when he gets the ball. ”

A footballer's career is very short, and I want to finish it in a strong and spectacular way. ”

I've had some of the best years of my career at Atletico and remember the supporters, my teammates, and the coaching staff fondly. ”

He always scores the opening goal. Because it is one thing to score 30 goals with hat-tricks in easy wins, and another that 20 of those 30 goals are enough to win 1-0. Nobody does that as well as Diego Costa. ”

Playing with Coutinho is easy. He's a very quick player who dribbles well. He knows how to play out wide, and my job is not just to go past and help him: it's also to give the greatest number of passes to him in space around the opposition right-back. ”

When Atletico tried to buy me back, I did everything I could to make it possible. I had offers from clubs in France and Italy, but I would not have left Chelsea for any other side - only for Atletico Madrid. ”

With regards to the fans, whenever I've played in the Atletico shirt, I have given all that I can. I think I will win the fans back on the field and not with words. ”

I was delighted when I found out that Atletico wanted to take me back. It's the best thing that could have happened to me. ”

I watch a lot of movies, and sometimes I watch the same ones a lot of times, so you get to learn a lot of words that way. ”

When I arrived at Chelsea, I had got used to playing 50 games, and suddenly, I was sharing my position with another player. ”
