Gonzalo Higuain

My philosophy for football is to be happy with what you're doing. When they say that you're one of the strongest in the world, you need to carry on in the same way as you do when they say that you're dead.

I always believe that it's beautiful to win important matches, but it's also very important simply to reach those moments. I truly believe that.

I've become accustomed to playing against four defenders throughout my career, but in Italy, I have to play against five.

I always fight. I work, and I want to be one of the best. It might go wrong, but the goal is always the same: to improve.

Del Piero is a player who I have always enjoyed watching. Del Piero has been an inspiration for me throughout my career.

The Pichichi is a dream for me and also a goal, like any striker, but only if accompanied by the league title.

Ronaldinho takes great free kicks and has scored a lot of nice goals from free play.

People make up their mind on whether you're a good player over seven games at a World Cup. You're great if you score goals and bad if you don't. I will always believe in myself, and those who doubt me will always continue to do so.

For someone like me, who loves this sport, Naples is a wonderful place. This is an incredible city where football comes first, followed by everything else. The fans live for football.

The defenders in Italy are stronger, and that makes me better. Serie A is played in a different way to other leagues.

The Neapolitans have a special affection for Argentines. They are similar to us as well as having Diego Maradona in their hearts.

I always experience each game the same way, but the Clasico has something extra because you can't play one every day.
