This is something that's very special; people saying they watch me play who are now turning professional.

That's one of my jobs, just trying to do what I can to help this team out as much as possible.

I don't know if my hairstyles reflect that, but I am someone who enjoys change.

The World Cup experience is more than just the game of soccer. It's an event. And it will fly by faster than you think. It will end and you'll be saying, 'Wow, it's over already?' You have to remember to take it all in and enjoy it.

You want to teach the next generation so they can learn a little bit faster and a little bit more so everything becomes that much better.

I turned 24 in the middle of my first World Cup and it was quite an unbelievable experience. It's really hard for words to do it justice.

Traveling is not a hindrance for me; it's something I actually enjoy.
