I am certainly not the most talented player in the world; there's many a more talented player than me.

When you take a lot of stick you want to ram it down people's throats.

The title is still on the cards until it's off the cards.

I'm like everyone else: I want to play every game, but it's not possible.

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

I had a fear of losing, a fear of what might happen if I had a bad game. Would I get dropped? I don't remember a lot of stuff in my career.

I'm not silly. I understand that, with age and at different parts of your career, you have different challenges.
