I want to be good at what I do, obviously, and to do that I need to keep my head straight.

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.

I couldn't ask for a better life.

My only real job is to play well and do my job on the field. If I do that, all the other stuff will take care of itself.

I wanted to get us a place of our own with a little bit more space. The kitchen is just huge, because my mom... lives there, man, and she loves being in the kitchen.

I would love to play for Real Madrid. And I want to win a World Cup for the U.S. so bad. When the women won it, everybody went crazy. I would love to be part of something like that.

My image is very important to me. I want to bring a good face to my family. That's the way I've been raised.
