I had a chance to go to Italy when I was younger and that would have been tough because of the language. America is easier but I really loved it.

I always wanted to be a winner, to score goals. There was no massive bravery in terms of my mum passing away and stepping up. I just wanted to score. I know everyone would have given me a pass on it if I hadn't taken it. But I'd have had the hump with myself if I'd shirked it.

When I was at school, I wanted to be a lawyer.

I can't stress the importance of working hard enough, work on all aspects of your game. If you does that and you have the ability, you'll come through.

I don't think Wayne Rooney would be affected if you booed him, that's just how he is, but others go under. They really suffer with it. I think I'm somewhere in the middle... now. I've become tougher as I've got older.

I think I work harder on the pitch, I cover more ground and my passing is more accurate.

If I lose the ball, I lose it trying to do the right thing. That's the way it is.
