What feels to walk on the grass back to the Bernabeu?
Feeling good and beautiful. I miss being in Madrid and the Bernabeu when he stepped on I'm going to move.
His departure from Madrid was in the winter market a bit by the back door. Is this tribute to do justice?
Florentino asked me if I would receive this honor and I gladly accepted. Lived five very happy years and was the team which scored more goals in my career (104). The Madrid is very special to me.
What is the best memory that recalls his Madrid?
I have great memories: Sunday at the Bernabeu, the fans, the league we won ...
Erase bad memories?
I also remember sad things, like when we eliminated Juventus in the semifinals of the Champions League in one season we were playing pretty well. But the balance is very positive.
Did you have your Champions to put the icing on his career?
Yes, I failed to win the Champions League, but in my whole career has been perfect and I can not complain about anything.
Ronaldo deserves the homage, but the Real Madrid Del Bosque strange that it was not done yet either. Should they honor him?
I think they will be safe. It is still in the Spanish national team. Is a world champion and certainly deserves a tribute of Real Madrid.
Del Bosque is always full of praise for you, admiration is mutual?
Is a friend rather than a coach. It is a great group manager and all players were delighted with him. We had no internal conflict and all was joy with Del Bosque.
Was it a mistake not to continue at Real Madrid?
The departure of Del Bosque caught us all by surprise. Was unexpected. They announced an overnight. Players never participate in decisions of the president.
Could not convince Florentino then the continuity of the forest?
I had no time to convince him. When I found out, by the press, Del Bosque was out of Madrid.
Why was not the problem when I was in active thyroid?
It is a very personal issue. We discovered in Milan. Started very slowly and in Brazil in the last year and I needed to take medication. I trained a lot and trying to lose weight by any means, but could not. For me it was three times more difficult for a person to lose weight than normal.
Are you annoyed long since come to know him as the fat Ronaldo?
I screwed up many times. I tried to lose weight and it was all very complicated. But people have always been good to me and wished me much, I appreciate all the love you have given me.
What do you remember Mourinho as an assistant to Bobby Robson in his time at the club?
I was quite young. He was 19 years. I met Mourinho at Barcelona. It was a great person, a good friend, was always with us. There were four players who spoke Portuguese and were close to Joseph.
Did you ever imagine then the great career that has taken then as a coach?
I could not imagine the great journey that would have. But Mourinho as he looked with great leadership, very quietly and with great ability in making decisions. He looked quality.
Guardiola also had a companion! Do you see it would be too big a coach?
Male, Pepe! (Sic) Pepe has always been big. It was as a player and it is as a coach. I did score many goals!
Where better fit Ronaldo, Mourinho's team or one of Guardiola?
They are both very good! But as more time I would choose Madrid Mourinho. I would love to play on this team Mou, but my time has passed.
Its gameplay is also doing better.
Yes, it is more vertical. But I have not seen any team play in my life as he plays for Barcelona. They are two different teams and the two play very well.
"Messi or Cristiano?
They do not play in the same position, are quite different, although both are making lots of goals. Messi and Cristiano make a difference in their respective teams are excellent.
Mark Whom do you most goals?
I would mark the most goals with Messi. But again they are the two best of times.
The Cup, the Champions League at stake, what do you think competition is a favorite for Real Madrid?
Hopefully the Madrid win the treble! I am Real Madrid in Spain. But you can not expect anything before a Classic.
And there may be four classics in a fortnight!
And surely it will all be exciting.
"The best goal of his career?
The two that got into the 2002 World Cup final against Germany. Were the two most important of my career.
Has scored the goal that little had been dreaming?
No! I always dreamed of Chilean mark and not scored. I was never very good fall and I was afraid to break something (laughs).
Your best partner in the lead?
I have had many good, but the one I did was score goals Luc Nilis, at PSV Eindhoven.
Does the partner that has most admired?
Zinedine Zidane.
Is the best defense he scored?
Paolo Maldini.
What is your dream team of colleagues with whom he has played?
I really enjoyed all the teams. Taking several of each form an unbeatable team.
How does the situation you are living Kaka?
Kaka talk much lately. Experience a very complicated moment, but I'm sure that will start and will show why it was a star signing and why was the best player in the world.
"Throughout his career also experienced difficult moments due to serious injuries?
I fully understand your feelings because I lived Kaka. Before the break I had a knee injury that many thought was no big deal, maybe it was a psychological problem, but then I got injured and the people realized that pain is subjective and can not be judged. Should be encouraged a lot to Kaka and the club should be very close to him, supporting him every minute to be back before.
Benzema and triumphs ...
The first year and scored goals. Since injuring Higuain has more continuity and is doing well, scoring great goals and important. I wish you luck because Madrid striker has to score many goals.
Raul said that he still competes at the highest level it has not gone out and taken care. What do you think?
I do not think that influence the career of a footballer. Each chooses the career you want to wear. If so, many players would play that never make it to 50 years. Zizou, who never left, also retired with 33 years. The normal thing is to withdraw from 30 to 38.
Will Ronaldo holidays are a myth or were so dramatic as speculated?
It's my party is a myth. He was single and when he had committed to the club and not harmed me in my work was the party that all kids that age do.
What is your favorite menu?
I like Italian food. And all the Spanish food is spectacular. Nowhere in the world eats a fish as in Spain.
Have you had a players' agent?
I am not a representative or I will be. My company is called 9ine. I manage the careers of image of athletes we have. We have been the advertising face of Anderson Silva, a fighter who is an idol in the U.S.. I do not want to get into the work of the representatives. We will create content and added value for companies, clubs and sporting events.
Ronald Does your child goes to a player?
She loves. We will support, but will not be a heavy father.
Will you live in Madrid?
I will come much, I love this city. Here I have great friends like Juni Calafat and Renato. And there is the Madrid!
