Roberto Carlos

Messi is incredible and his history in football is marvellous.

I've played for Real Madrid and Inter, clubs at the highest level, but Corinthians is a well-organised club and a reference for our country.

For me, Corinthians are one of the four biggest clubs in the world.

It is tough to find a European club with the kind of infrastructure that Corinthians have.

Mourinho is his own man, he has his own way of doing things and you have to respect that.

Marcelo has a completely different style from mine.

Gabriel Jesus will be for Neymar what Benzema is for Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid. He has the same focus as Karim.

My father is an athlete and I wish to be a hero like him.

Zidane is not a coach, but he is a teacher.

Zizou has been a leader wherever he has played. He was the captain of France, a World Cup winner and been a winner in all the clubs he played for. So he has enough experience to handle and manage a group. More importantly, he is a man who everyone respects.

My objective is to coach the national team.

Always when you reach the semi-final you want to reach the final, it does not matter where or whom you are playing against.

Messi is phenomental but in my opinion, Cristiano is a special player because he does everything for Madrid.

Every team needs leaders, but not just one or two.

I respect Ancelotti a lot.

Talking about Cristiano is very easy. He is the best in the world.

Bale is one of the best in the world.

I spent my career at big clubs.

Everything I experienced in the national team was amazing. I was there for 14 years and won several titles: the Copa America, Confederations Cup and the World Cup.

I believe in not changing teams that are winning.

The best tactics are those which lead you to a win.

Real Madrid are always after the best talent.

In football, there are so many great football players like Eden Hazard, Roberto Lewandowski and Neymar.

It's quite confusing and odd when a footballer, instead of playing, is interested in bringing in players who are his friends.

I have known Eto'o since I was 16 and since then I always liked him. He is a good person, but he always thinks of himself and not the group.

If Messi were Brazilian, he would be a world champion.

It is always a pride to return to the Bernabeu.

I love English football because it's real football. I love everything that surrounds it. The public, the atmosphere, the preparation.

There are so many great players in the Premier League and of course the big teams are always the favourites, but the teams below them also play good football. The mixture of foreign and English players works really well.

I watch the Premier League every weekend. I think it's fantastic. One thing you notice is that the teams considered small are capable of surprising the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United and City.

It's great to see Zizou doing so well. He was a very quiet team-mate, he didn't speak much, but he was a phenomenon on the pitch and he was learning all the time. We didn't know he was going to be a coach but he always had the qualities for it.

It was a disaster. I need to play with freedom, and Hodgson didn't let me cross the halfway line.

I don't buy books, ever... and I only tend to read the sports press.

When I was playing for Real Madrid, we competed in the UEFA Champions League most of the time and won it three times. When we didn't win we always ended up in the later rounds.

I don't have enemies.

There are times when you win and you don't see mistakes.

In football, it is not important how you win, it is important that you win.

Dybala is an excellent player.

Pep is a modern coach, he's intelligent, brave, likes football and always has the players on his side. He knows a lot about football, but Mourinho's success in all countries where he has been confirms him as the best.

I can bring Neymar to Real Madrid.

Obviously when the players are performing well in training, they will have a chance to play.

Neymar is a phenomenon. He adapted to European football very quickly.

It's a shame, racism still exists.

Some people don't understand that football is universal. It doesn't have a race or nationality. It's one group of people.

Everyone wants to have fun playing football. A person goes to the stadium to have fun.

In Brazil, I walked around with a lot of security. Fans were threatening to fight me.

When I was coaching in Turkey, my players played well.

The fans do not want to see 0-0.

When you go to a club you have to adapt to the club, the country, food, but not Neymar.

Until the moment I stop playing football, I want to win more titles.
