"We are colleagues in football. Outside of football have no relationship with Messi, but I have with other players. This is a positive rivalry."

Portuguese who is 29-year-old admitted that the last 12 months are among the best in his career, but does not believe that this is due to a better shape than before.

"The individual awards are the result of collective goals achieved. We had a fantastic season. Won the Champions League, Copa del Rey, the European Super Cup."

"Golden Boot trophy as a reward for that we play well as a team.I will not lie. I really want it. Perhaps it was the best on collective or individual awards. But I'm the same level in the last six or seven years."
