I want to win all the titles.

Defending is definitely an art.

The young Leonardo was a bit too fiery.

Everybody knows Tevez and his qualities.

The goal is to be at the top in the spring.

I hope to do with Milan what Pirlo did with Juve.

It is not in the DNA of Juventus to think of a draw.

Juventus is an historic club that only fights to win.

I have the fortune of playing with world-class stars.

The objective is to be competitive from March onwards.

In football you should never take anything for granted.

Mancini makes us feel good inside and outside of the field.

I wouldn't trade any of the championships I've won for anything.

Belotti is someone who drags you forward, he's such a hard worker.

Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival here at Juventus has been fundamental.

If I've ever followed Conte, then it's been to get a coffee at most.

When we are organised on the pitch, it is easier to play in defense.

We are professionals, we have to set the example and not provoke anyone.

Being captain of the national team is definitely something you can feel.

The Juventus that I know has always shown more hunger than their opponents.

The national team should unite under one flag, leaving out the club stories.

Mr Conte is important as a coach that is able to really implement a game plan.

If someone like Cristiano arrives at the club, then inevitably you will improve.

The truth is that we should live with less envy and more cordiality and empathy.

There is nothing better than feeling you are a player that youngsters look up to.

At Treviso, my entire career was in danger; I lost all self-esteem and confidence.

Sarri is meticulous, passionate about tactics, he likes to make the team play well.

Juventus have to win always, we must spit blood every time we step on to the pitch.

What I discovered is that there has always been a soldier inside me; I just didn't know it.

Defending is not only done by the defenders, just as attacking is not only down to the forwards.

All families have disagreements, but good often comes of it if they are constructive discussions.

When I found myself facing jeers by wearing the shirts of Juventus and Milan, I always accepted them.

As I said in the past, when I chose to come to AC Milan I knew I would go through good and bad times.

Pirlo's a leader - a silent leader, but one who knows how to carry his team through difficult moments.

I will give all I have got to improve my qualities and be important for Juve and for the national team.

With clever and mature people, it becomes clear: you shake hands, and look together towards the same goal.

Having discussions over the years is normal, as I am someone who is very direct and always speaks the truth.

As a lad I missed five months of sporting activity to OSD. It used to wake me up at night with pain in my knees.

I watched a lot of Alessandro Nesta videos, as he had similar characteristics, studied carefully and applied myself.

What interests Chiellini and I is not conceding goals. We're able to create chances and it makes us happy when we take them.

When you are part of a group for seven years, you leave something - I hope - beautiful inside each of your former team-mates.

My motto is 'from difficulties up to the stars.' I got a tattoo to represent that when I used to sit in the stands at Treviso.

I understand the fans, I respect them. I'll accept the whistling and booing. It's up to me to transform that all into applause.

This stadium is the history of football, the most important arena in Italy. Stepping into San Siro always has an effect on you.

I met some beautiful people at Milan, first of all Rino Gattuso. It was a difficult year, but that's not to say it was useless.

Those months at Milan let me do some soul-searching and made me realise that my calling was at Juventus, who are like my family.

Defence for me is so important because I do not want anyone to trespass and invade my property because that goal is my property.

It is exactly in tough times when we discover our full potential, it allows our mind and body to push ourselves beyond our limits.

Unfortunately, it is part of Italian football and our culture to come to the stadium and whistle players for the choices they make.

I feel I have the Juve shirt sewn to my body because I breathe it every day, but wearing the national team shirt is also an honour.
