“And so I was in my mind, that doesn't mean it's not because you're going to divorce, you're going to be a Baghdad. But in my mind, I'm letting people down. I'm a bad dad. I'm a bad whatever. Do you understand what I mean? My way of thinking. That's my biggest fear. Still now is, you know, because I'm learning to be a dad. Like everybody, by the way, because that's, but. You know, some doors I didn't have some emotions I didn't have. I wasn't often at Still not often at home. When did you?”

“Particle moment football wasn't really my priority if the CAP was on, obviously, but even before when the CAP wasn't on, it was still football. You need to race, you need to diss, you need to do that. But there it wasn't because it's actually technically, and this is not me having a go at my dad or the relationship or anything, but I was like, You know, when you swear that if you get married, you never get divorced because, you know, and you know very little about life, obviously. And it is exactly what happened to me, or what's happening to me. What are you doing? You're repeating yeah to yourself that, you know, you kind of like. Are they doing? This is why I said so many times, and I would say it again my biggest fear is not to be a good dad.”

“You don't want to say it. What were the symptoms? You said the word hurt. Again, if I was a flower on the wall in that room in Barcelona when you were alone, what was going on in your head? Well, just imagine I'd like to please people and everything everywhere was a no. No, I wasn't playing well. You're divorcing. I'm feeling I'm letting my daughter down. I'm letting the fans down. I'm letting my friends down, myself down, everybody down. Just imagine how I am on wanting to please people. And it wasn't happening. Kept on, kept off. But the easiest way to deal with it was to put the cap on. When the cape's not on, what are your thoughts saying to you at that time? As a human being, like did I make the right choice? You know, Anna said it, I think”

“You want people to know and you want people to know how you feel that you're not equipped right now to perform. In the same time, you put it on because you don't want them to know. Do you understand what I mean? It's kind of wage. You're like, you know what? Let me put the cape on and then they will attack the player. You want help but you don't want to ask for help. You do, but you don't. It's kind of weird. You won. You want someone to go like, oh, this is what's happening to him. And you're like, thank you.”

“Nobody deal with it. You learn, you fail. Again, you mentioned it Barcelona. Adapting to a new life, new language, new team, new way of playing. People don't care. I don't ask people to care, by the way, because that's how it is. But it's not easy. It was tough. Was stuff. Don't see you don't, you know, I couldn't see my daughter for a little while. And people expect you to perform. So, what do you do? You put the cap on. The cape on because that's the only way, okay, you put the capon, you're like, okay, and you do feel that everything goes away. It's a feeling though. An impression. It's a lie But when I put that cape on. Feel like you can see that I'm hurt. I feel like you can't see because now people see the player. So in a weird way,”

“You have to perform. And so I said to you, when you put that cape, that's what is asked of you When I arrived towards the end of my career I realized something I was big and something I was missing. I always thought that titles mattered, and yes, they do, but always thought that it's the only thing that mattered. What is not true? Not true. It's how you mentioned it before. It's how you transcend and what you can transmit and also how you inspire people that matters. And I never thought about it when I was playing again because I didn't have those tools also.”

I need to concentrate for the euro. So I didn't go. Sometimes can be seen as a guy that keeps himself to himself or doesn't want to belong in the team. Well, I surely did when I was on the field. Me, that's the only thing that matters. Are you going to cover me? We don't have to be friends after that”

We were in camp with the national team obviously being my assistant. So to me, Cherry, do you remember what you did one day? I'm like, I don't know, man. So we won the league. So he won the league with us when we stayed invincible. He said to me, Okay, where was the party tonight? We're going and everything. Saddam going to no party tonight. He said, yeah, but everybody's going. I said, yeah, I'm not everybody He said, Why? Said we have the euro going Everyone went to the party I didn't. So on this then. Me, it was like hey, I have the euro. So you tend at one point not to enjoy it while you're playing.”

Not disrespecting anything that happened in my career, but that was so easy compared to what I had to do in order to please the old man. And my young self is still waiting for that approval. Still, yeah, I'm trying to connect with the little man. I'm going to a different discussion now, but I'm still trying, I'm trying to connect with the little man.

“If you add obviously what my dad gave me, never be satisfied. Do more. It's always what you didn't do well. You know, obviously I had a certain attribute I was fast.

And I know people will say, oh my God, okay, that cliche sentence. No, I had to work really hard every day. My left foot was poor. Forget about it. And I still didn't manage to be better during my career. I got a tiny bit better. But I worked freaked. I'm going to take a freak. Anything, you know, repetition is key.
