As a player, I'm a combination of my father and my uncle. People back home say that they were such good players and that I remind them of them both.

Sometimes it can be more difficult to play in Europe, as you are playing against the very best players, but I like the big games.

Although I was only 25 years old, I had been at Chelsea for five years. So, I was there long enough.

The transfer was good for me, good for Chelsea, good for Shanghai, and I'm so happy to come to the Chinese Super League.

I know it could be a bit more difficult in England because you are not playing all the time and you play in different positions. But I do expect to score many goals for Chelsea and I hope to keep the average of between 10 to 20 goals a season, that would be good.

I want to win more games, more trophies, because I love Chelsea, I love the fans. I like the city, my family like it here.

It's great to play in local derbies.

In Brazil, there is a different type of football, but I think I am seen as an elegant type of ball player, who is creating for other people.

In Brazil, we have the culture to try to conquer the refs.

To play at Stamford Bridge for Brazil would be great. To play for the national team is already special but to do it here would be a very special occasion.

There are teams I like a lot like Inter and AC Milan, so I'd think about going to the Italian league.

Upon his arrival at Chelsea, Mourinho spoke to me. He gives me confidence and I'm trying to return all such support on the pitch.

If I go to Chelsea it will be a dream come true.

I arrived very early in Europe.

I spent a lot of time in the national team and I love playing for my country.

The fans are really good in China - not only Shanghai; wherever I go, everybody who stops me is super nice.

In the Premier League every team is very good. That's why it's very difficult to reach that level.

China has incredible financial power and sometimes makes offers that players can't refuse.

It's always a dream to play for the national team.

Everyone knows my quality... and the way I play.

Chelsea is one of the best clubs in the world, so I don't see why I would think of leaving.

There are different tactics depending on the opponents we face, and we respect the manager's choices.

The most important thing is to be happy, regardless of the place.

When I was a child I watched the Italian league a lot because there were many Brazilians there.

I won two Premier League championships, I played a lot - I won a championship with the Brazil team too.

I have to up my game every time I play.

I'm not aware if anyone's been told to kick me in training - but they are doing it anyway!

I play with players in the Brazilian national team who are similar to those at Chelsea - Kaka, Neymar.

For Internacional I played in several different positions, so I have no problem adapting.

I am good friends with David Luiz.

I'm joining Chelsea hopefully to win more titles.

Definitely the aim is to be champions.

I am so happy to come to the Chinese league.

Of course the Premier League has the most top level players in the world. But the Chinese guys are very good.

I'm flattered PSG are thinking about me, but I'm happy at Chelsea.

Every title is important for Chelsea.

I know that I have to try get better every day.

I have been a midfielder who is a regular goalscorer and scoring 20 in a season was normal for me.

To wear the number 10 for your country is a very special thing. This was not only my dream, but the dream of every single Brazilian.

At Chelsea we are expected to win every game.

It's like a dream for me, participating in the Olympics, it's so important for my career and I hope to win the gold medal here.

On the pitch there's no need to talk about his fighting spirit - he always gives 100 per cent in every game. I like Ramires and I admire him a lot.

At the World Cup, everyone has to face up and beat everyone.

I hope I can keep growing and scoring goals.

The big games against big opponents, those are the best games to play in.

I've have always known that Felipao has trust in me, that's not new. And I showed on the field that he can keep trusting me.

I can play in any position.

I am pretty sure that in the future the Chinese league will be one of the best leagues in the world.

This happens with every player, if it wasn't for money I wouldn't leave Brazil. When you go to Europe you go because of the money and because of the good clubs also, and in Shanghai the project is to be one of the best leagues.

Didier was always an idol.
