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

Clubs don't like their players going off to play international matches and you can see a scenario where they eventually start to make it more difficult for international sides to call up players.

While the World Cup is great every four years, I think people struggle to get themselves excited about qualifiers against the smaller nations. It will take some good performances from the national team to get the feel-good factor back, as far as the England team goes at least.

The Spanish league is fantastic, but it has not the great passion the English Premiership has got.

I was born to score goals, I feel.

Best atmosphere I ever played in was at Celtic Park in the UEFA Cup for Liverpool.

Best players I played with? Striker wise, well, I had a great record with Emile Heskey - he would be one of my favourite partnerships because we were so different and worked together so well.
