There's no point in dwelling on the controversies created by others.
My mother was a cleaner and my father a builder. I watched both of them make big sacrifices for my brother and I to study. This is where I get my work ethic from. This is also the source of my generosity and willingness to help.
I had chances to leave Inter, but this is my home. I stayed here even in times of difficulty and I was always sure that the winds of change would come through.
I always see Argentina with great players.
I want to be useful for the team, depending on whatever position the coach chooses for me. That's the spirit I've always had.
The opponent I have most admired during my career is Paolo Maldini.
I've always believed that our public actions need to take account of our social responsibility.
The guys who play in midfield and up front are the ones who decide games.
Inter have given me so much and I am very proud.
Destro and Silvestre are two players worthy of wearing the Inter colours.
To arrive in a city like Milan as a young man was a huge challenge.
Inter is my second home and put their trust in me when I was an unknown.
A lot of things, experiences I had, helped me to grow up and mature, both in terms of my football career and my private life too.
Sportive fortunes get built day after day, week after week through a healthy lifestyle.
My story is like many other stories. I started very young. As the years went by, I only cared about playing football. I was never obsessed with money or being a professional though.
It's an honour for me to wear the Inter shirt. To have been involved in so many important moments that all of us and our fans will keep in our hearts and minds forever, I feel privileged.
I was close to joining Barcelona and Real Madrid, but I am happy to have remained at Inter because I knew that sooner or later our moment to shine would arrive, and it did.
My relationship with Moratti goes beyond the normal ties between a president and a captain. I was an unknown and he believed in me. It's something that I will never forget. Indeed, I will always thank him for that.
I am enjoying everything football has given me, and I want to enjoy to the maximum every chance I am allowed.
For some reason I have always felt at home here at Inter and this is why I have never thought of leaving.
