Every season is a new challenge to me, and I always set out to improve in terms of games, goals, assists.

I'm aware that, whatever the circumstances, there will always be speculation about me.

There are people out there who hate me and who say I'm arrogant, vain, and whatever. That's all part of my success. I am made to be the best.

My father always taught me that when you help other people, then God will give you double. And that's what has really happened to me. When I have helped other people who are in need, God has helped me more.

To be honest, there are no problems between me and Messi. People have their own opinions about who they think is the better player. It is what it is, but there is no rivalry beyond games and what happens on the pitch.

I was saluted by Alex Ferguson when I was subbed and that made me very happy.
