You only get one chance of an England debut.

There is another side to me which people don't often see, but it's very hard for me to show that. When I do interviews, I'm talking to people I don't know and when you speak to a stranger you don't open up, do you? In my position, people are always looking for something to say about me. And anything I do say, given half-a-chance they'll turn it round into something spectacular so I've got to be very careful. That's why it's only my friends and family who know the real me. Now my wife, Lainya, she could tell you a few stories.

The managers are getting paid very well by their respective clubs to do a job for their clubs not the country they are working in.

Lampard picks his head up and knocks it out to the wing.

I've never wanted to leave. I'm here for the rest of my life, and hopefully after that as well.

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

No money in the world can buy a white England shirt.
