I don't look at records, that's not why I'm playing the game. Goals, of course. Every player in my position wants to score goals. But most of all, trophies. My target is always to win trophies for Barcelona, and that will always be my motivation, to win things. Nothing feels better than doing that as a team.

Ronaldo was my hero. I loved watching players like Zidane, Ronaldinho and Rivaldo, but Ronaldo was the best striker I've ever seen. He was so fast he could score from nothing and could shoot the ball better than anyone I've ever seen.

We are at a good level. Our secret is that we play the same way against each opponent.
Lionel Messi

It's scoring goals that's great, whether against Brazil or anybody else.

I never think about the play or visualize anything. I do what comes to me at that moment. Instinct. It has always been that way.

The day you think there is no improvements to be made is a sad one for any player.

I want to concentrate on winning things with Barcelona and Argentina. Then if people want to say nice things about me when I have retired, great. Right now, I need to concentrate on being part of a team - not just on me.
