At Barcelona, it wasn't about winning all the time; it was first about how to win.

I think that the best player in the world should be quiet, humble, and friendly. Lionel Messi is all of these things, while Cristiano often lacks some of these qualities.

If people only knew how much I respect Cristiano Ronaldo. I will repeat it to make myself clear: I respect Cristiano Ronaldo.

Before I went to Juventus, I made a final promise to the board at Barcelona. I said, 'You're going to miss me.' I didn't mean as a player. Barca have plenty of incredible players. What I meant was that they were going to miss my spirit.

My parents gave me a practical example of what life was about, and I won't forget that.

I left hurt because I think I fought hard to create a great history at Barcelona. I left with 23 titles in eight years.

Decisions are for the brave, and I am the bravest, deciding to leave Barcelona and Juventus.

When things begin to go negative, sometimes we just have to cover our ears and not let such circumstances influence us.

Leo Messi is a little football God. I love playing alongside him. We understand each other without needing to talk.
