00:00 Cristiano Ronaldo, too.
00:02 How was it to play with him?
00:04 It was wonderful.
00:06 I've always mentioned it.
00:08 Being in teams like Real Madrid and Manchester United,
00:10 beyond the admiration, respect and everything incredible
00:14 that they have as teammates,
00:16 they are tools in your favor to have them with you and not have them against you.
00:20 So, playing with Chris,
00:22 I think something that a lot of people don't mention is
00:26 Chris, we know the impact he has, but something that is phenomenal
00:30 inside a dressing room is how Chris is.
00:32 I don't think I've met or seen any player,
00:34 and I can confirm that Chris has come out in the dressing room
00:38 as a difficult or complicated person.
00:40 Chris is Chris, and we know his personality and his competitiveness,
00:44 which is something extraordinary, but as a teammate,
00:46 they are also the things that have taken me the most,
00:48 because we had talks, he and I,
00:50 that we would have given if he had not allowed them.
00:54 He has been very sensitive, and not only him,
00:56 but all the teams, all the elite players have been like that,
01:00 but particularly, I think a lot of people have seen Chris
01:04 in a very arrogant and very despectful way,
01:06 but I think he is a very honest person,
01:08 very frank, and he is not going to lie to you.
01:10 The winning mentality.
01:12 Totally, and as a teammate, it was an extraordinary year,
01:15 and I do want to mention it a lot,
01:17 because it is something that people don't know about,
01:19 and they don't allow it, and they like to judge better,
01:22 and as we say in my country, to praise,
01:24 and we know how good he is as a player,
01:27 but also as a person, I had very good feelings.
