"I am loving football at the minute. My management at club and country are giving me freedom to play it how I see it," he told Channel 4. "Since the last few months I have been really working on my timing getting into the box and as I am arriving I am arriving with a big hunger.
"With the big transfer the fact is I have to deliver, whether it is a goal or assist or a match-winning performance. This is the club I want to be at for the next 10 to 15 years of my life. I am loving it there. Carlo [Ancelotti] basically said this position is where he sees me."
