“The Islamic culture is a question mark for many people across the world, but Qatar opens its doors to supporters all over the world so they can learn from this old culture.”

“I know perfectly well that in football, you have good times, and you have bad times.”

“I will end my career with Roma.”

“I'm content with what I have done in my career.”

“You don't celebrate a goal differently just because it's scored against one team or the other.”

“I do not like football. It is just my profession.”

“I could have become an E.U. player if I'd wanted to, but I am, and prefer to remain, Argentine.”

“I want to broaden my horizons, speak a new language, meet new people, and experience a different culture.”

“I wasn't that excited about football when I was young, but it did become my passion.”

“It goes without saying that I love the game, the tactics, the training, and everything that happens on the pitch.”

“I have had a positive experience in Qatar. It has not been too challenging, and it has given my ankles a rest!”

“English football is different: always on the attack. Although one thing is clear. The best football is the Italian.”

“Sometimes the logic of football has no value at all.”

“Messi, even if technically is same or more, he doesn't have more charisma than Maradona had.”

“Argentina have always had the best strikers in the world.”

“Looking from the outside at English football, at Spanish football, it's more interesting, and they have the champions and the celebrities that they want to see. But with the passion that Italians have for football, the pride that they have, I don't think the game will stay that way.”

“I never said I was going to play for Boca but rather that, if I went back to Argentina to play, I would do so for only one team, and that's Boca.”

“I've always liked England.”
