There's nothing quite like a World Cup.

The better the opposition put in front of you, the better your team plays.

I don't want to be modelling G-strings. It's not that good for my image – I'm a footballer not a tart

I wouldn't change my life for the world at the moment.

The longer my career has gone, the more I seem to score... It's experience and age and knowing where the ball's going to be.

Nobody on this planet had a range of passing like Paul Scholes. Training every day was a pleasure just watching him. Unbelievable career.

I hate to admit this but I don't even know how to make a cup of tea or coffee. I can boil a kettle for a pot noodle and I've been known to warm up some food in the microwave.
