I know that I need to keep growing as a player.

I remember when I was playing for Pequeninos, I'd see some of the kids after the match with their fathers, and I was alone. That was heavy for me. It marked me.

I will not lie. When I first came to Manchester City, I felt lost about everything.

Aguero is my team-mate, and I'll always cheer for him to score and help the club.

I play to win.

I played street football from the age of seven and later went into the varzea. Sometimes I'd play as many as three or four matches a day: I couldn't get enough of it. It'd get to the point when my muscles would cramp up.

I'm a normal lad. I've always been quite humble, and I like simple things.

I come from a poor community, and I still go back there whenever I can, and I think that makes it easier to cope with fame and being on TV.

When I was younger, I always saw my friends with their mothers and fathers and felt a little jealous of them for having a father close by.

If I am helping my team-mates in some way, giving assistance, passing the ball, I'll already be very happy, but of course, in my position, I have to score.
