People just assume, over the years, that soccer players are not too intelligent. As with most assumptions, they're wrong.

I like nice clothes, whether they're dodgy or not.

People look at my tattoos, and the majority of them are religious images, so people think, 'Oh, he must be very religious'. I respect all religions, but I'm not a deeply religious person. But I try and live life in the right way, respecting other people.

I just want people to see me as a hard-working footballer and someone who is passionate about the game.

I'll never forget where I'm from, never forget my roots. It doesn't matter where I live. I'm English, simple as that.

I have always found it an honor that people have wanted to buy my shirt and an honor that fans turn up to watch the team I am playing in. I have always found that a huge honor.

I love a nice tailored suit, but I also like to dress down. It all depends on what mood I'm in.

I've seen the growth of this game in this country, the stadiums that were built, the great European players that have come and the great American players who've been created. Americans want to be number one at everything. And they are at baseball, football, basketball. Soccer is growing fast, and I want to be a part of that.

It was always going to be difficult, no matter what I'd set up, no matter how many children I have got to take my mind off things. There was always going to be a moment when I finished playing, that I was going to find tough.

People react to criticism in different ways, and my way is definitely to come out fighting.
