Gabriel Jesus

I have to keep playing and growing and giving my best.

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.

I am very self-critical and always will be. I think this makes me want to improve, always. But just because I'm self-critical and say what I thought of my performance in a game, it doesn't mean I will bring myself down, ever.

Pep Guardiola is a very ambitious manager; that's a reason why he has been able to win all the trophies he has won in his career.

I never enter in the pitch under pressure to score goals, but I know my position requires me to score goals.

When I spoke to some players that had already played in the Premier League, they said it was going to be very difficult, but I put in my head that by working hard, you can achieve your goals.

I want to win titles, and Manchester City is a club that is used to winning.

When you talk about Brazil, we're always going to have high-level players trying to find a place to play.

Whenever I score for Manchester City, my mother calls me. As soon as the ball hits the back of the net, the phone rings. It doesn't matter if she's back home in Brazil or if she's in the stadium watching me. She calls me every time. So I run to the corner flag, and I put my hand to my ear, and I say, 'Alo Mae!'

I remember when I was playing for Pequeninos, I'd see some of the kids after the match with their fathers, and I was alone. That was heavy for me. It marked me.

I am a regular kid. I like the simple things, and I always want to improve.
