My secret is practice.

Football's the biggest game in the world. America's the greatest sporting nation there is. To play some part in putting those two things together: why wouldn't I be excited about that?

In Spain people have lunch and dinner a lot later - when I return to England I'll have to eat alone at midnight.

I hope I become a better player day after day. This is one of my goals. I want to improve in every situation, but when you are playing along with top figures, it is a quality bonus and a bigger effort. Besides, the Spanish Liga also gives you the chance to progress and improve.

We've been asked to do 'Playboy' together, me and Victoria, as a pair. I don't think I'll ever go naked, but I'll never say never.

Soccer is a magical game.

I don't think I'm really in a situation to complain, because I consider myself to be privileged to be doing what I do.
