If people don't like my style, then I can't do anything about that. I have been like that since I first entered into the game and it hasn't done me bad in the past, so I am not going to change now.

If you ask footballers to pick out the player they most admire, so many of them will pick Paul Scholes.

Sometimes going in for a hard tackle generates a louder cheer than a great pass.

There's no way the future's over for Martin Keown, Tony Adams or David Seaman.

I want to be around when Newcastle win a trophy because I want to see this place lift off. It will be one hell of a party for a long time.

As a kid I always wanted to be a centre-forward. I wanted the buzz and thrill of scoring goals from an early age.

I still get butterflies when England are playing.
