I was lucky because my mother worked extremely hard, and our family always had food to eat.
For me, football was everything. The love of the ball was everything.
My father left the family right after I was born, so my mother was working every single day to support me and my brothers.
I have two idols in my life - God and my mum.
My dream in a City shirt is to win titles, to be happy, and to make all Manchester City's fans happy, too.
Sergio Aguero is a high-quality player. I'm a big fan of his, both of his football and his humility.
She only praises me if I have done something worthy of praise. I am really happy to have a mum like that, who really cares. She always tells me the truth, and her sincerity helps me a lot.
I grew up very quickly because of the difficulties and responsibilities that I have always had.
I have always enjoyed working hard, and that's why I try to give my best tactically as well as going forward.
My whole life has always been football and that only. Since I was six years old, I've only really thought about football. I used to watch it on TV, play video games, and so on. I just love football. Some people joke that I am too into it, but football just sums up my life.
I never enter in the pitch under pressure to score goals, but I know my position requires me to score goals.
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.
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.
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.
I can't put my mind to anything else. I'm not interested in hanging out or partying. For me, it's all about the pitch: training, playing. But even when I go home, afterwards, it's football the whole time. I think I'm obsessed!
I play to win.
Aguero is my team-mate, and I'll always cheer for him to score and help the club.
I will not lie. When I first came to Manchester City, I felt lost about everything.
I know that I need to keep growing as a player.
Everyone knows Pep Guardiola is a great professional, but getting to know him, I have realised he is an even better person.
