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

I am very happy to be signing for the best team in the world and especially proud to be the first Portuguese player to join United.

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.

I don't mind people hating me, because it pushes me.

Winning - that's the most important to me. It's as simple as that.

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