I don't really think kids care much these days - they just tell you to f*** off.

Houllier couldn’t deal with players expressing any anger or questioning any of his decisions

I hate talking about football. I just do it, you know?

To say that I haven't been motivated to play is absolute nonsense.

Maybe if I'd not been able to kick a ball it would have been different, but I doubt it because all my mates are decent blokes now, just normal fellas with families.

The treble parade would have been the most perfect moment of my footballing life, but for the two people standing behind me, clearly already plotting their next move.

I get paranoid about people staring at me. Even now I don't deal with people looking at me. I can't do it sometimes. I can't go out. I don't know how to react when people stare.
