I'd like to play for Newcastle United before I retire. The club is in my blood.

I've got a great life that I really enjoy. But there is something chewing at me inside: that adrenaline rush from football, I miss that.

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

I've turned down Barcelona, Inter Milan, Juventus and Manchester United to play here. I hope everyone already knows how much it means to me to play for Newcastle United.

When I go home every night, I can look in the mirror and say I have given 110 per cent for Newcastle United. If people aren't happy with that, I can't give any more.

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

If you want to have a great party at Wembley, don't invite the Germans.
