I always wanted to play for AC Milan or Real Madrid. Real Madrid, of course, because when I was young, the players that played there were the top players. I was looking at Real Madrid as the best of the best. And AC Milan, they also had good players when I was young, so I looked at AC Milan the same way as Real Madrid.

Even if I don't always behave as I should, this still doesn't explain why so many people have something against me. But you know how it is.

They say that abandonment is a wound that never heals. I say only that an abandoned child never forgets.
