- I was disappointed not to be called-up after a good European Championship. I'm someone who bluntly says what he feels, so I never made a secret of my disappointment. The Coach must have had his reasons not to call me, but now I'm looking forward.
- I'm not ashamed because I smoke and I've never hidden this habit of mine. I know I should set a good example, I have kids... But I'm just a footballer, I do my job. Everyone knows that I smoke and I can't hide it, but I'm not ashamed.
- In Rome I'm fine. My family is happy and even the weather is often good. Sometimes you make choices for the money, others for the quality of life, which matters a lot to me. Also, if I went to England, I would have to start from scratch, but I repeat: I am very well in Rome. China? Currently no, but you can never say never. We need to see right now.
