As a footballer you always want to test yourself against the best.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

When I was a kid, I thought my dad was a little bit harsh with me at times. Sometimes I needed an arm around me instead of my dad telling me what I did wrong, but it obviously worked.

It's my responsibility to walk around the hotel with a big smile on my face and not worry about what's happened in the last game.

You will go through tough times, it's about getting through them.
