00:00He decided to go away.
00:03Now he's back in one of the most important clubs in Europe.
00:30It's a dream that goes to feel so easy and great.
00:40It's a bit unusual that I sit here and are ready for the biggest club in the world.
00:46It's a dream that goes to feel so great for me, so I'm here.
01:00It's a bit unusual for him.
01:12We've played a lot of games.
01:14He played a lot of games.
01:16With the ball, he looks like he has a lot of quality.
01:20Without the ball, he works well.
01:22He has a commitment, he works well.
01:24I think it's a good year for him.
01:30I'm really happy with him.
01:42I think he has settled really, really quickly within the team,
01:45within what we demand to the players.
01:49His behaviour, his attitudes, his work has been phenomenal.
02:00I always believed that I was going to make it, if you can say it that way.
02:21But to play big games and Champions League in the biggest leagues and all that,
02:26I always had that belief.
02:35I think football just doesn't always go as you expect.
02:40Of course, when I signed for Madrid, the plan was not to go on loan in the Netherlands
02:45or in Spain or whatever, but that's football and that's life.
02:49Something happens and you have to deal with it.
02:51I think all the things that happened to me made me stronger and a better player than a person today.
