European football games or evening games seem to take a lot more out of you because you don't sleep that night. And as you get older, it gets worse.

Every footballer wants to play forever. And if you are going to keep on playing - to enjoy it to the full - you want to win games, and as a result, trophies.

You get yourself prepared for a big game, you get yourself up for it. Then afterwards you don't sleep or eat properly.

I had an early taste of fame. I was 20, going out with TV presenter Dani Behr and we'd have paparazzi chasing us. I'm not comfortable being photographed, though I accept it is part of the job. I had to ask myself, 'What comes first, being a celebrity or footballer?

As players, you just play for the club. I love Man United, I'm going to play for Man United, and that's what my focus is on.

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.

I have always considered myself to be very fortunate. To play for the biggest club in the world, which also happens to be the team I supported as a boy, means I have never had to consider changing away from Manchester United.
