Receiving praise from Cristiano Ronaldo is a joy.

I get to wear the best jerseys: that of Real and Spain.

Real Madrid demands the maximum. You have to win and please.

I don't think about anything other than focusing at Real Madrid.

I try not to focus too much on the expectations there are of me.

With how well I have been playing, I have earned the love of the fans.

Whenever the coach gives me minutes, I'll try to take advantage of them.

I take my teammate's praises very well. It means I am doing my job well.

I am comfortable in any position in attack, either side or in the centre.

It seems easy, but to win three Champions Leagues in four years is incredible.

The Ballon d'Or? In the end, I dedicate myself, and if it arrives, it will arrive.

There was an option to sign for Barcelona and other teams before I moved to Madrid.

I used to focus a lot in Ozil. He has a lot of quality and a very elegant style of play.

I wouldn't want to finish my career with the number 20 shirt; I say everything with that.

In training, I work hard to make the starting line-up, and I try to do my best to be picked.

I have confidence in my ability, and I try to isolate myself from everything going on around me.

My first option is always to triumph at Real Madrid. After that, you never know what can happen.

I don't usually get nervous on the pitch because playing football is what I've done all my life.

I want to make history at Real Madrid. I want to make my mark, and I want to win every possible title.

When I signed for Espanyol, all I was thinking about was that I needed continuity in the first division.

To see myself with the Champions League trophy at such a young age was an incredible and tremendous feeling.

I don't set myself any targets. I try to work hard and play well, and in the end, things are working out well.

To reach the biggest club in the world where there are millions of fans and a lot of pressure was a brutal change.

I'm surprised by Cristiano Ronaldo every day because of the ambition he has to win. That infects all his teammates.

To be able to compete in a Champions League final, to win it with Real Madrid and to score was incredible and exciting.

I want to win all the titles, be a reference for the team and for the fans, and I want to live my story at Real Madrid.

When things are going well, they start saying you're the best, but as soon as things go wrong, suddenly you are the worst.

Before matches, there is a little bit of pressure, but on the pitch, you forget it all. You only think about playing football.

At the end of the day, of course I want to continue to be successful at Madrid; I want to be important here. I have never hidden from that.

I work hard every day to earn more minutes, but I am aware of where I am. I am at the best club in the world, and I am happy at Real Madrid.

Zidane told me that since Messi, he had never seen a left foot like mine. I was a little impressed, because Messi is a piece of a footballer.

Real Madrid are the most successful club in the world, and from the start, you know you have to be prepared and to give everything for the shirt.

I'm very proud that the world's top clubs showed an interest in me, including the very best: Real Madrid. My Madridista friends are all very happy.

I can't imagine playing without Cristiano. He has been, is, and will be very important for us, and he and Madrid must always go forward hand in hand.

I have been a Madridista since I was young. I always wanted to play for Real Madrid, and now that I have the opportunity to be important here, I want to take it.

I can play in any position in the attacking zone, but I don't like to stick to the wing, for instance. I need to have freedom to move throughout the attacking and creative zone.

When I go out onto the pitch, I don't do so thinking about objectives or the need to win. I think about enjoying it, but from a point of view of responsibility and of giving your all.

My debut was in a final. I was not nervous. I scored a goal, and I won my first title. In all my debuts, I've always been able to score goals, and I have come to Madrid to stay and score many goals.

For me, I don't see Madrid in a crisis. And I don't think it's for me to carry the team - there are players who are much more experienced, have more years playing under their belts, and more status than I have, and they're the ones who have to lead the team.
