There is still a lot of football in me and I enjoy watching the players go out there and be the best players they can possibly be. ↗

To me it was never about what I accomplished on the football field, it was about the way I played the game. ↗

I think the thing about that was I was always willing to work; I was not the fastest or biggest player but I was determined to be the best football player I could be on the football field and I think I was able to accomplish that through hard work. ↗

I started out as a football player. I liked to inflict pain. In basketball, it was the same thing. ↗

I always thought I wanted to play professionally, and I always knew that to do that I'd have to make a lot of sacrifices. I made sacrifices by leaving Argentina, leaving my family to start a new life. I changed my friends, my people. Everything. But everything I did, I did for football, to achieve my dream. ↗

Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesn't thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. I'm just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasn't paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing. ↗

Nah, I've always had a great relationship with my two brothers, I have always had their support in my football and in everything. They've been very close to me and we have a great relationship. ↗

Especially in football, it is not a QB's game... even though the media likes to make it into that - it takes the whole team. ↗

I feel very strong as an individual, but as a famous footballer I know I am prone to certain things. All the media have a continuous interest for me. It varies from once a year to every day interest. ↗

As a private person I think I am now totally different from Ruud van Nistelrooy the footballer. ↗
