City fans might not want to hear it. But when I was a kid I wanted to be Michael Owen.

I've always liked Liverpool. I'd play a lot of video games and I'd be them, because they played in red, like Independiente, my first club, Arsenal or Chelsea.

When I saw Owen score that goal for England against Argentina in 1998 I thought ''you little sh**!''

Even aged 10, I knew they couldn't allow him that much space. He was a terrific player at that time.

If I was Liverpool, I'd go four at the back, two central midfielders and two pushing on out wide, with Steven Gerrard just behind Djibril Cisse or Fernando Morientes. I'd always score six or seven with that team.

Even now, if I saw any Liverpool players I'd be okay with them. But I don't see many United players - they don't like to leave their houses these days!

But I feel very, very settled in Manchester. I'm not one of these people who goes on about the weather all the time. If anything, I do prefer it to be a bit cooler, which is good as I'm at City.

People do recognise me more now because of THAT goal but I can still go out for a meal. People are very respectful and leave you alone. I can't do anything normal in Argentina.
