The best players always follow the best players. They want to be at the top of the game because they are the ones, they are there you cannot rest or sleep because they are the ones can pass you of course we fight with everyone, with Neymar, Messi, Lewandowski, with Higuaín, with the top of the best players in the world. So I mean, this is not fighting, but it’s hard, it’s healthy, comparations, it’s healthy and we fight to the best. This is why it’s my main point, it’s my motivation, it’s to be better than them, than them year after year. And he said to me, Cristiano, the most important thing. I knew it and everyone knew that and he said, Cristiano, we have money, we have everything, we have fame. He said, I have millions of billions but the most important thing, It’s the family keep your family healthy goods and take care of your family because this is the most important thing in the world.
A part of that of course you have your life, your private life, you have your girlfriend, you have your cars, your houses, your fame, but in the beginning, your family it’s always with you for the good moments and for the bad moments. But I know I depend on many people but to be honest, if you’re thinking too much about that, you lose your focus, Which is the most important? My focus is to be a good man and to do it my job properly. So this is what I’m trying to do, I know many people depend on me, but this is the other side of me. I try to don’t focus on that because it’s important, but for me, it’s not the most important. It’s about the balance. We have time for everything to enjoy with my son, to do it properly, my job to be fit all the time to train properly all the time, to play well, as you know soccer in America and football in Europe, it’s great and it’s my passion, it’s what I love to do. And to be fit all the time and to be at the top of the level for many, many years, you have to be consistent.
So this is what I have tried to do. To be good to be in good shape and try to enjoy the people is what I love to do. I have to improve and I want to improve, and I see myself doing it. When I’m retired, I to speak millions of people’s advice, on how to be a professional player, and how to maintain your longevity. I’m not a psychologist, but I pass through many, many things and I can above all, how to win, which is the most important. And I think what It’s all about, I have experienced to inspire people. For that, I think I’m a role model and I can help many, many people in that way. If they want my help, I want to listen to it, right? For sure especially the young people. I want to be with the young people, to speak with them not only for them but for the fathers as well, to put them in the right spot.
I see football now as a business, to be honest, I don’t understand. They treat your players like a piece of meat. And I say yes, you say everything, it’s true. When they want you when they count on you, they give you everything. When they don’t, they try to make a hard life for you. I have seen football pieces in the last few years as a business, and I saw many, many things that I’m disappointed.
The passion for the game is still intact, but in the same way, I saw other things as well, which surprised me. But in the same way, it’s part of the business, because if you see the world how it is in the moment, it’s all business, everyone take on itself, everyone. They are more individual. Listen you have one game. After three or four days you have to be in the national team, preparation for the World Cup. It’s hard sometimes you have to settle everything and be with your family, take the best decisions. And in this summer, I didn’t feel comfortable, I feel uncomfortable the way they treat me especially the press, they doubt about me, the professional that I am. It’s impossible to be 21 in the top of the game if you’re not professional. They doubt about me, which has made me feel very sad because in my life I’m always one of the best professionals. This is why I still play in the high level.
