Quando mi fanno incazzare, vado a un livello superiore: sono più attento, più concentrato, più forte, più desideroso di dimostrare qualcosa. Se mi odiano, mi migliorano. Per questo, partite come i derby mi caricano a mille e mi riempiono di una rabbia speciale che mi porta più in alto. Ma oggi ho molto più controllo di un tempo, quand’ero giovane.»
