Golden Ball winner Kaká talked about his countryman and team mate Ronaldo and the difficulties of the Brazilian national team.

AC Milan star and Brazilian international Kaká talked about his eagerness to get back on the pitch after his knee operation and his hope of seeing his injured countryman and team mate Ronaldo back on the pitch with the Milan shirt.

"In about 10-15 days I will be able to play again," he said. "The national team? I love playing for them and everytime I wear the Auriverde's shirt I always give my best.

"Ronaldo? I really hope to see him play with Milan again, I think he can make it and I hope to be able to play alongside him again."

On the difficulties of the Brazilian national team and the criticism aimed at coach Carlos Dunga in this last period, he said: "Last year Brazil won the Copa America, but the criticisms were there just the same. It's normal that there are periods in which things don't go that well, like for Brazil right now, but these are things you have to accept, they are part of football and of sports."
