A lot has been written about my age and my injuries. A lot of people think I'm going to be 94. I'm actually 34 and I feel quite good. I'm sure the fans will judge me on what I do on the pitch, not what I say.

I got Robbie's mobile number and rang him. It went to his voicemail: 'Hi, it's Robbie - whazzup!' Like the Budweiser ad. I never called him back. I thought: 'I can't be f****** signing that'.

If it's not a contract I want then I won't sign it. That's not a threat.

The last time I was charged by the FA they had a murder lawyer in against me, so it's going to be a hard case to win.

People say 'go with the flow' but do you know what goes with the flow? Dead fish.

I think players tend to get anxious if they've not really done things properly - like eating, resting or training. If you're fully prepared you've got nothing to worry about - it's just a game of football.

Aggression is what I do. I go to war. You don't contest football matches in a reasonable state of mind.
