Once your name gets out, people just want to crack you.

It's frustrating at times when you think you've earned a chance to play on the field and you're over there sitting on the bench. That's not the kind of player I am. I'm the kind of player who wants to be out there on the field and needs to contribute every minute of every game.

I haven't done anything yet, but I want to be the best in the world.

Obviously, everybody has their own expectations of you, but you have to have your own expectations for yourself. For me, I'm right on track.

A lot of people have been hyped up to be great but just disappeared. I promised myself I wouldn't be one of them.

All I can say is, hey, if you have fun doing what you do, if you have fun playing soccer, the creativity is just going to come as time goes on.

This is unbelievable to me. I always wanted to be famous, be the best, but I didn't think it would be like this.
