Javier Pastore

Even Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo sometimes faced criticism.

The most important thing for me is to play 90 minutes without interruption.

If Barca put Messi up for sale, for sure PSG will not think twice about trying to sign him and entering the war for him.

I am happy with my career.

I have come to Rome to feel important - no matter the competition.

How could I compete with Neymar? He is a phenomenon.

With Laurent Blanc, the style is more technical. He wants us to keep the ball, play higher up the pitch.

I've always been fortunate that other clubs want to buy me, but I told Nasser the day I signed my PSG contract: 'I will stay here until we win the Champions League.' I gave my word, and I intend to keep it. The way football is means I could be forced to leave before that happens, but it's not my main idea.

I feel much better when I am positioned higher. It's not that I'm bad in midfield, but rather that I would need more time to get used to it.

Everyone could see that my performances significantly progressed when I found myself playing closer to the two strikers. I scored. I delivered assists.

Losing is always tough, and it is even worse when you lose two finals in a row.

There will always be critics when you don't win, because this is the national team and we are obligated to win titles.

I got the chance to play, bank on myself and be a starter on such an important team as our national team.

It's not a problem for me to use No. 27. I love that number.

The French media back French players.

Sooner or later I would like to wear the red and black of AC Milan - I'm sure about that.

I love Paris and I love PSG.

It's very hard to be at your highest level throughout the season.

I had ups and downs; it was normal to be criticised.

If I leave Palermo it will be to join a stronger team.

If I left Palermo, I would like to remain in Italy.

You can never rule anything out.

I feel pain every day, not just when I play football, but also in normal life.

I find it much easier to do a little nutmeg and run round the player than to try and dribble around him with the ball.

Nutmegs, for me, are a beautiful thing to do. They're beautiful to watch. In fact, even when I get nutmegged myself I find that beautiful - and that actually happens quite a lot too!
