The way I am, I like to look forward instead of looking back.
I've had two or three injuries when with England and it's been a bit bizarre.
I haven't counted, obviously, but I reckon I've lost over a year and a half of my career through injury so far.
Physically and mentally I'm stronger right now because an injury is not playing on my mind all the time.
You can't just play on the edge of games - you have to be in the thick of it.
You look at Patrick Vieira and Emmanuel Petit at Arsenal or Roy Keane at Man United, and they are players that can do everything.
