No color will ever be brighter for me than black and white.
A true gentleman never leaves his lady.
As captain, I must always be an example to my team-mates. I'm calm and I don't have any problem with the coach or with the club. My only goal is to be ready whenever I have the opportunity to play.
Money is not everything. My ambition was football itself, not the money I'd make from it. If that brings me and my family a more comfortable lifestyle, then that's fine. But I don't spend my time between games and training sessions thinking about figures.
Luckily, thanks to the way my parents taught me, I think I can handle the fame in the right manner.
I have cried twice in my life watching a football player; the first one was Maradona and the second was Ryan Giggs.
I'm the leading scorer in the cup, and that's lovely, but don't forget this is also a great moment for the whole squad, when the two things coincide you can't ask for more.
Had I found the back of the net it would have been a double satisfaction but I've scored many goals and the important thing was for me to play well.
Messi is the real deal when it comes to Number 10s. He represents a type of football that transcends borders.
Only two players made me cry when watching football, one was Diego Maradona and the other Ryan Giggs.
Italy have plenty of high-quality players. Newcomers need time to get adjusted to the set-up and the system of play. I'm very young, and although I think I have shown good quality in my international games, I realise that there are plenty of others competing for places.
Messi on the World Cup 2014? He showed why he is the best player in the world. It was a pleasure to see him play.
