All my life, since the time I was little, has been a long distraction. At least that is the way some people want to perceive it, but for me, it's given me a lot of strength.

I need a life outside of soccer. So I very much welcome, you know, new love interests and dating and friends and family.

Speech is the image of actions

I have a problem with players who don't take the loss personally. At a professional level you should - it's our job, it's our livelihood, it's who we are at this level. Every loss should be taken that personal.

I love pedicures. And, yes, I have a ton of shoes.

L.A. is a bit strange. It doesn't seem like the real world.

I know I can't dance. I am the worst dancer. I have no rhythm. I just do step-and-snap. I love it in the privacy of my own home and every once in a while at a club. But singing and dancing are my two greatest fears.
