The mistake is to imagine that perfection is possible when the very idea is unthinkable.
In football, day in day out, you always have to show your worth.
When I left Barcelona, staying in Spain was an important factor in my decision to join Madrid. I did not have to change country or learn a new language, adopt a different sort of lifestyle, and so on.
As a professional football player, I have known perfectly well from the day I started playing that every day I have to fight for my place.
Some of the fans here were not too sure about their club signing a player from their biggest rivals. Fortunately, we had a great season and won the League title for the first time in four years. Now, I think, everyone can say it was good business.
