With all due respect, I have nothing to prove about my worth to anyone.

I can't even remember when the Seventies was.

I had expected to be playing in the reserves and, all going well, that I might get a chance in the first team towards the end of the season. But it has all happened much faster than I could ever have thought.

I am happy at Leeds and I want to stay. There has been talk that Leeds might sell some players, but all the players believe we can win some silverware next season and it is important that we are all kept together.

Qualifying for the second stage would be a successful World Cup for us. I think we can do it.

We have a great sense of togetherness. It is our team spirit that has taken us to this World Cup.

Top players don't come much topper than Gerrard and Carragher
