I am proud of my black roots and of the black blood that runs in my veins.

I'm not comfortable being photographed, though I accept it is part of the job.

My weight doesn't really fluctuate, but I make sure I don't eat late at night. It's about making sure I'm right physically because mentally I'm OK.

Messi is probably the best player of the last 20 years.

If I feel I'm not influencing games, not scoring goals or making goals, then that's the time I'd pack it in.

Every one is special. Especially after the disappointment of last year, losing out on the last day, it is a great achievement by the lads.

In my career, there've been three stages really. There's been the stage when you come into a team, you don't feel the nerves, you just go out and play. Then through your 20s you start thinking a lot more about the games and what's at stake. And then, as you get more experienced towards the end of your career, you enjoy it a lot more and you're a lot more relaxed.
