sports country world
It's the only sport that's played in every country in the world. It's played and watched all over the world, it's the most popular sport in probably 90% of the countries, and then with the World Cup, you have the most viewed tournament of any sport in the world.
convincing great
It was a great milestone to reach. It makes it a whole lot better to get a win, a convincing win.
good primarily rest weeks
It was primarily just to get a rest and get a really good break, consecutive weeks off. In my 12 years in Europe, I've never been there for a preseason and I just thought it was important for me to do that.
club cup future great knows manager nice nowhere represent stay
It'll be nice to represent the club at the World Cup and it's just nice to know your future too, and that the manager knows that I'd like to stay here. I like where the club's going and it's a great place to play your football. There's really nowhere else I'd like to go.

It's in our hands now. We don't have to look at other results.

Luckily the doctor is one of the leading guys in Europe and I'm happy to be seeing him and getting the problem cleared up. It's a player's worst nightmare really. Hopefully it heals and everything goes to plan.
building cleared doctor eight europe guys happy jogging leading problem running seeing six three until weeks within
Luckily, the doctor is one of the leading guys in Europe and I'm happy to be seeing him and getting the problem cleared up. Within six to eight weeks, I'll be completely back up and running and three weeks after the surgery, I should be jogging and building it up until I'm back.
country team unique
It's a unique situation as well because England is a small country, so it makes it easy for the fans to travel. If we play down in London, they get buses and we'll get three or four thousand fans come down. They'll all sit in the same area and show their support for the team.
kids thinking should
I think kids should be doing pickup or futsal all the time,
player winning trophies
We care about how many players you develop rather than how many trophies you win.
