My parents have been there for me, ever since I was about 7.

As soon as I hit the ball, I know if it's in.

My life here is perfect and I'm happy at Real Madrid so, of course, I want to stay as long as I can.

I love scoring goals for England and playing for England. That's one of the reasons I didn't retire - I love playing for my country.

I've always been proud to represent my country, whether it be World Cups, European Championships or just friendly games, I've always been a proud person, I'm very patriotic.

My priority is always the family and Victoria [Beckham] and I always ensure we are there for our children. We work hard but family comes first.

I feel I can still do the same job as I did 10 years ago - I've just got a few more wrinkles!
