I used to read every, well, most nights. I think reading helps me in terms of relaxing... It helps me to get my mind off the game a little bit more and it helps me to be a little bit more focused.

There are two things that really get under Gary Neville's skin: scousers and policemen.

I didn't expect to be dropped by England.

Gary Neville is the club captain but has been injured for the best part of a year now - and Giggsy's taken on the mantlepiece.

There is a huge responsibility on all of us to get England through. It would be one of the biggest disasters in sports history if we blew it and we must make sure it does not happen.

Someone now has to step up and take on the mantelpiece.

It doesn't matter whether you're a senior or not, if something needs saying to a colleague it will be said.
