Fortunately for me, its my most favorite drill, and that is finishing. However, from a young age, soccer players in this country are not taught how to properly finish, and I think you see that through the professional ranks, that we dont have that killer instinct of the forwards from other countries.

I genuinely want to do my best every day, and I genuinely want to enjoy life every day.

I think about the things I control and do them well.

In my heart of hearts, I thought, if we get a 1-0 win and the team doesn't perform well, that would feel good.

I love winning and any team I'm on, I expect to win.

I've never asked a player if they would sign my shoe. I've certainly had players come up, even before the game has started, and say, "Hey, after the game, can we trade jerseys?" It's kind of like, "Well, let's get through the game first and we'll deal with that later."

I've got a lot to prove to a lot of people, including myself.
