To be the best you have to forget partying and concentrate all your energies on the football.

There is no doubt that I would have won more honours had I signed for Manchester United as a youngster.

My Dad was briefly an Everton player and I used to follow them as a boy.

Give me a great Champions League game or an exciting Premier League game ahead of an international match and I'd love that to reverse. A lot of people have lost interest in England games, it is quite hard to watch.

A lot of people have lost interest in watching England play. To get motivated to watch international football, you need your country to be having some form of success and England haven't had any for a long time now.

I don't get a lot of enjoyment out of sitting there for an hour and a half watching a game like we saw between Ireland and England last Sunday.

I have a great family, good friends, a nice girlfriend, my own house. I have got everything how I want it to be.
