The great thing about him, is that he will not quit.

We saw that he plays with his heart too. He obviously loves the game so much and was distraught to lose in the final. Seeing him cry nearly got me going too.

English fans love spectacular players like Alan Shearer and that is exactly what United have now signed. He has magic in his boots. The first thing you notice about him is that he is incredibly quick and very, very powerful for such a young man. He has great, close control and his technique is excellent. He believes he can do anything with the ball, and that confidence makes him very special indeed.

When my family isn't alright, I get restless. It just doesn't seem right to me.

The number 7 shirt is an honor and a responsibility. I hope it brings me a lot of luck.

I don't understand referees. It appears like some players can't even be touched, but in my case, everyone can hit me as hard as they can.

I don't think about one trick or the other, they just happen.

I have a few tricks and dribbles which I use a lot and when I am playing well, it is natural that they become easier. But the tricks I use are the ones that will hopefully benefit the team. What I do as an individual player is only important if it helps the team to win. That is the most important thing.

We've had some great players at this club in my 20 years, but he's up with the best.
