FEELING NUMB

"It is always a great moment when they sing my name. I was at the game at the weekend and I heard the crowd singing my name and it made me very proud. But at the same time I am afraid that maybe one day it will stop."

"During the time I was banned the fans helped me a lot. When you go through a bad moment you know who your friends are and I realised that with them. It was a difficult time for me but their support, along with that from my team-mates and the manager, helped me a lot. It’s like a love story but there’s always a worry that it will finish one day."
