All goalscorers go on droughts. It is how you cope with that. And it is not just about scoring, it is about what you bring to the team, bringing others into play and getting assists.
So if one day the result becomes 3-3, for me it doesn't change my mind, because it's football, it's normal. What is not normal is that we haven't been scoring enough goals playing such good football as we've been playing in the last few weeks.
In an 82-game season, you're going to have some dry spells where goals are harder to come by, and other times they're just going to come in bundles.
It's crazy to say that after three games [without a goal] I was in crisis. I do not care whether I score or not, what matters is that the team win and continue to do so.
Goals come in bunches. When you're hot, things go in. Then there will be times where you go through a span where you have about 20 games without a goal and it's just how it is.
In a season, every striker has some periods where he doesn't score.
During my time at Juve, I didn't score more than 20 goals a year, but I won every title except the Champions League. I've scored 15 or 16 goals, and I've lifted titles, and other strikers have scored 35 and haven't won anything.
After I joined Alkmaar, I didn't score for seven League games, but soon afterwards, I started to score goals.
As a forward, when you have not scored for a while the desire to score gets stronger and stronger and ultimately that can work against you because you are trying too hard to do what comes naturally.
Not scoring one for the whole calendar year last year was a bit disappointing but I didn't really feel any pressure to get my first one as skipper,.
