There was a big possibility that I would have had to leave Newcastle had Ruud Gullit stayed as manager.

Football's not just about scoring goals - it's about winning.

You only get one chance of an England debut.

Nothing's black or white in our country - you're either brilliant or you're hopeless

You have to go out onto the pitch feeling good about yourself. That can give you that extra 30 per cent.

I still get butterflies when England are playing.

I didn't watch cartoons, I was too busy playing football.
