I wasn't as fit as I would of liked to have been, going to the World Cup, but I'm not sure what difference that made.

To this day, one of my proudest achievements is captaining my country.

I've always come back from adversity, and I've always had the mentality of proving people wrong.

I would walk back from the United States to play for England again.

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.

The spotlight will always be on me, but it's something I'm learning to live with as the years go by.

[Meeting Mandela] was the highlight of my career; to meet such a great man and a strong man and such a passionate man about sport and life will always stay with me.
