I think as far as kids go, you just have to work hard. Work on your skills, keep focused.

Before my mother died, she told me not to leave Chelsea.

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.

For present buying, I go to Harrods because there are great personal shoppers, who point me in the right direction.

Remember every team wants to beat Chelsea, probably even more than Manchester United or Arsenal because they believe we have an unfair advantage.

Being faster would probably make me better at football.

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