Even Cristiano Ronaldo, who has won two Ballons d’Or with Real Madrid, receives whistles from the Bernabeu.

Friendship cant end just because you change your life.

If we can’t help our family, who are we going to help?

We don’t want to tell our dreams. We want to show them

It would be a dream if 2015 was like 2014 or even better

If you think you’re perfect already, then you never will be.

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

I’m happy of being in Real Madrid … I’ve fulfilled my dream.

It’s very important for me to be distinguished in my own home.

But the tricks I use are ones that will hopefully benefit the team.

I am always motivated. I am ambitious and I want to always improve.

I don’t have to show anything to anyone. There is nothing to prove.

I feel bad only when I play badly. Fortunately, that happens rarely.

I know that people have different ways to see me but I’m used to it.

I still learn, but I think it’s the best thing in life to have a kid.

I’m not a perfectionist, but I like to feel that things are done well

I’m sure that I’m a winner person. I’m sure that I win more than lose.

It’s not a problem. In four or five days I will be beautiful once again.

If I can have the chance to be the best ever, then that would be perfect.

When you lose a person you love so much, surviving the loss is difficult.

I want to consistently play well and win titles. I’m only at the beginning.

I’ve never tried to hide the fact that it is my intention to become the best

I was saluted by Alex Ferguson when I was subbed and that made me very happy.

I will never reject an autograph, hug or photo. I was also a fan of football.

My free-kick secret? I just look at the net and say take the kick, Cristiano.

I have my flaws too, but I am a professional who doesn’t like to miss or lose.

I’m aware that, whatever the circumstances, there will always be speculation about me.

I still remember when my teacher told me that football wouldn’t give me anything to eat

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

The people I work with have a very good impression of me for sure, because of how I am.

Dreams are not what you see in your sleep, dreams are things which do not let you sleep.

For the people that I love I only have one face but for some people we can’t have one face.

He’s a gift from heaven, he is truly a gift from heaven. Whatever he touches turns to gold.

I have never played against anybody like that in my life and I was pleased to be taken off.

The last time I cry was when I won the champions. It was one of the best moments in my life.

Today there are opportunities that no one knows if they will come round again in the future.

People whistle me because I am good-looking, rich and a great footballer. They are jealous of me.

I enjoy been on holidays because you can do whatever you want and people can’t say anything to you.

Why lie? I’m not going to be a hypocrite and say the opposite of what I think, like some others do.

I want to be one of the best players around in two or three years time, to be a decisive footballer.

I’ve always dreamed to win the Champions League with Real Madrid and we are only one step away to win it

Every season is a new challenge to me, and I always set out to improve in terms of games, goals, assists.

I never promise anything. I don’t promise anything to my mum. I don’t promise anything to the supporters.

When you see someone like him coming on, with his great pace and desire to take someone on, it is a boost.

I’m ready to lose my life if that’s what Portugal needs to win. I’ll play vs USA even if I play with one leg.

I prefer other people to make judgments about the way I play and to characterize me, rather me describe myself.

No one did what I did last season and for this, I deserve the Golden Boot and why not the best World Player award?

What I do as an individual player is only important if it helps the team to win. That is the most important thing.

I would be very proud if, one day, I’m held in the same esteem as George Best or Beckham. It’s what I’m working hard towards.

Manchester United is still in my heart. Disappointed they didn’t win the title but they are still the kings of Premier League.

When you’re surrounded by flowers, you breath better.

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

To me, being the best means proving it in different countries and championships.

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

I miss Manchester, especially the apple crumble and custard they served at Carrington after training.

Some fans keep booing and whistling at me because I’m handsome, rich and a great player. They envy me.

Don Alfredo leaves us, but his memory will last forever in our hearts. Legends never die. Thanks for everything Maestro.

The one thing that I really dislike, is being alone.

Your love makes me strong, your hate makes me unstoppable.

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

I have two Golden Boot awards at home. It would be nice to win another, but I wouldn’t mind it if I didn’t.

My aim is to go down in history as one of the best.

I dont want to tell my dreams, I want to show them!

We should make the most of life, enjoy it because that’s the way it is!

Talent is important but it is not the key point.

I’m running out of words to describe this lad.

I know If I score we’re going to win the match.

Without football, my life is worth nothing.

People that really know me, they adore me.

Mesut Ozil made me the worlds best striker

When I win awards, I think of my father.

I do not exchange my shirt with ASSASSINS

Maybe they hate me because I’m too good!

People are going to think I’m crazy.

I know who likes football likes me

I don’t like being alone.

But I hope to maintain my credibility after I stop playing. Because, yes of course, now I play and I score goals and children all over are mad about me. Not just poor children – all children. We can make them really happy by the way we play, though I have to say that it’s the poor ones that I think of most, the ones who can’t come and watch the games at the stadium. We mean so much to them. That’s why I’m so committed to this work. Later, after you’ve stopped playing, it’s harder to have the same impact. But I will give it a go. I want to continue doing this kind of work for ever.

When Ronaldo gave that little wink everyone interpreted it that he had got his team-mate sent off. You felt then that he would become a much criticised figure. But that’s not really what happened. So for him to overcome all of that and emerge as one of the players of the season is quite a remarkable achievement. He is a phenomenal talent. He has tremendous pace, he goes past players and he has added the ability to shoot. He can also pick out team-mates. There is not a lot he cannot do now. I believe his game has improved immeasurably over the past couple of seasons.

Sir Alex has a special place in my life. In fact, he was the main man. I was not famous, I was not a star. I arrived at Old Trafford as just another young talent. He was the one who told me to do all the right things. He gave me the opportunity to play in one of the biggest clubs in the world. So he is one of the most important people in the world for me. I worked with Sir Alex for a few years and I know he deserves ­everything that he has achieved in his career. He works so hard, he is clever, he has experience, he is a human guy.

Of course I miss playing for Manchester United. I played there for six years and that’s a long time. I am still interested in watching Manchester United and, you never know, maybe in the future I could return to play there. It’s always possible. I want to fulfil my contract here but, in the future, only God knows. I will not say I am not happy here at Real Madrid. I am really happy and everyone knows this is my club but, of course, I miss Manchester United, the boss, the players, because I left family there.

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.

I’m always trying to be the best, on and off the pitch, is also very important. I’ve always taken things very seriously, since I was very young, and that’s reflected in my career. Always being nominated, winning trophies for the club or individual awards, that’s the culmination of many years of dedication, hard work and professionalism and that makes me very happy.

Your love makes me strong, Your hate makes me unstoppable.

Madrid and United are the two biggest clubs in the world and it’s a real 50-50. It could go either way. Manchester was my home and still is in my heart. I love it. Because when people treat you very well you never forget that. And I will never forget United, the people who work there and the supporters. So I am so happy to be going back to Manchester.

I feel I have grown up. I am a man. It’s important in my football too. When everything is good, I don’t think you grow up fantastically, I think maybe you need a few problems to grow up. It is good if people in England have started to admire me. I think I have changed a little since the World Cup. I am stronger with my mentality and with my game as well.

I am not a perfectionist, but I like to feel that things are done well. More important than that, I feel an endless need to learn, to improve, to evolve, not only to please the coach and the fans, but also to feel satisfied with myself. It is my conviction that here are no limits to learning, and that it can never stop, no matter what our age.

I’ve always had a sense of responsibility, whether I’ve been captain or not. But I must say that I’m both pleased and proud to be Portugal captain, despite how young I am, because I know what it means. My job is still the same though. I need to do what I do best out on the pitch, and that’s score goals and help my team win.

People have to understand one thing: at the age of 18 I arrived at a dream club like Manchester United. It was a dream come true. But, even at that moment, I was thinking about playing in England for some years and then going to play in Spain. Even at that time I was thinking that way, and I always gave 100% everything.

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.

The kid makes you sick. He looks the part, he walks the part, he is the part. He’s six-foot something, fit as a flea, good-looking – he’s got to have something wrong with him….Hopefully he’s hung like a hamster! That would make us all feel better!

There’s no point in making predictions. It’s not worth speculating because nothing is set in stone and things change all the time in football. Today there are opportunities that no one knows if they will come round again in the future.

My father was always in good spirits, he loved football. It makes me a bit sad because if he could enjoy seeing me now, what I have achieved, that would be a highlight in his life. But I’m sure that he watches over me from above.

Sharing the cover with Irina means a lot. Irina is the most beautiful woman in the world and working with her was a surprise and something very special. It was the first time we did something together. And I enjoyed it.

No, Wayne (Rooney) doesn’t need it (tips about style). He has his own style. But with hair he looks much better. He looks very good now. Before, he was a little bit ugly, but now, with hair, he’s beautiful.

He is as tough as anything. You can crack him once, but he won’t let it bother him. He’s back on his feet in no time and getting on with it. He is a strong character and a great sight when he’s heading for goal.

The high point of my career was winning the Champions League. No one will ever erase that from my memory, in the same way that no one will ever erase the fact that I did it in a Manchester United shirt.

It gives me the happiest feeling in the world. I just love scoring. It doesn’t matter if it’s a simple goal from close range, a long shot or a dribble around several players, I just love to score all goals.

F

After we played Sporting last week, the lads in the dressing room talked about him constantly, and on the plane back from the game they urged me to sign him. That’s how highly they rated him.

Do you think I would enter into a contract with that mob? Absolutely no chance. I would not sell them a virus. That is a ‘No’ by the way. There is no agreement whatsoever between the clubs.

I’m proud to play for Real Madrid because I have fun; when you no longer have fun it’s a sign that it’s time to leave. For now though, I’m happy here at the greatest club in the world.

After dating for five years, my relationship with Irina Shayk has come to an end. We believed it would be best for both of us to take this step now. I wish Irina the greatest happiness.

I don’t consider myself as the best player in the world. I’m not obsessed with individual titles. I’m much more interested in being part of a team which wins trophies.

There is no harm in dreaming of becoming the world’s best player. It is all about trying to be the best. I will keep working hard to achieve it but it is within my capabilities.

Scoring goals is a great feeling, but the most important thing to me is that the team is successful – it doesn’t matter who scores the goals as long as we’re winning.

I spent six years at United and I owe them everything that I am today. I made history at United and won many trophies. It was a pleasure to play at Old Trafford.

Of course it’s good when you win the Champions League, the league, the golden boot. But when you win something for your country it’s completely different.

I’m no longer thinking of Madrid. That dream is dead. The only thing I dream about now is Manchester United and winning the Champions League again in Rome.

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.

Tuesday will be a tough night for me. It’s like to return to the family who have not seen you for a long time. I spent a wonderful time there.

Lots of young players have triumphed at United, so why can’t it happen to me? I’m not worried I’m young – it’s an incentive to do the best I can.

Ronaldo can do whatever he wants as a footballer. There are some things he does with the ball that make me touch my head and wonder how he did it.

I know I’m a good professional, I know that no one’s harder on me than myself and that’s never going to change, under any circumstances.

There have been a few players described as the new George Best over the years, but this is the first time its been a compliment to me.

I have practically no private life. I’m already used to this and ready for it. Yes, sometimes it is hard, but it is the choice I made.

I am very happy to be signing for the best team in the world and especially proud to be the first Portuguese player to join Manchester United.

When you’ve got a player who does what he does at that pace this late in the game than you know you’ve got an invaluable talent.

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.

For me Sir Alex was my father in football. He was crucial in my career and, outside football, was a great human being with me. Talent isn’t everything. You can have it from the cradle, but it is necessary to learn the trade to be the best.

Iker has never stopped being one of the best goalkeepers in the world. For me, Iker is a top goalkeeper and has never not been.

He’s six-foot two, brave as a lion, strong as an ox and quick as lightning. If he was good looking, you’d say he has everything.

I do my profession, my job, I give me all for my club…the rest doesn’t matter to me. I don’t care what happens on the outside.

I feel endless need to LEARN, to IMPROVE, to EVOLVE, not only to please the coach and the fans, but also to feel SATISFIED with myself
