want fans joining
I want to say thanks to the Chelsea fans because I have seen them very, very happy with me for joining Chelsea.
writing different process
The live show allows me to transcend myself, because it's not about me anymore. The writing process is very much about me but then the live show is not. They feel really different.
football son cities
My son is a Liverpool fan, and he was already kicking a ball before he was one. He was born in the football city, he had no choice.
fun love-you kids
When you become an adult you just make that transition and you're right... it's fun and exciting to be an adult and exciting to have independence, but once you're out from under the cover of your family's protection and love, you sort of have to take a step back and come to terms with the fact that you won't really ever have that again in the same way. You'll never be a kid again.
nice people
When I get to connect with people, I'm not in my head anymore and I like that, that's nice.
mother mind states
I like changing my hairstyle, much to my mother's annoyance. It depends on my state of mind.
littles brooklyn harsh
Living in Brooklyn it's a very fend-for-yourself place. Maybe it's made me a little bit harsh but I don't consider that to be pejorative.
games trying important
Fitness is important, but the most important thing is how you adapt and the way you feel physically. To adapt to a new position. To try to change your game.
real team kids
I was captain in Atletico at 19, playing in the same team as Demetrio Albertini, who won three Champions Leagues, and Sergi Barjuan from Barcelona, who had won everything, and they were 32, 33. I was a kid as captain, so I wasn't the real captain, just a kid learning from them.
song dark singing
The songs can be dark, but the adrenaline doesn't really change, regardless of what it is I'm singing, I still have the adrenaline, it's still a high.
player want might
It's not easy to come somewhere new and have to find your place. You might feel someone doesn't like you, or you might need to find new friends. It's not easy, and I don't like this kind of thing. It's not easy, so you want to protect the players who are alone.
moving thinking speaking-up
I guess just personally I've become a bolder person in my day-to-day. I think a lot of it came from moving to Brooklyn. I just sort of became an adult and started speaking up for myself and not apologising for myself.
team self important
When I retire, the only thing that concerns me is that no one can say that I was a bad team-mate or disrespectful or self-important.
fundamentals places-to-go way
Liverpool is a fundamental part of my life. They don't remember me that way, but time will change that. I could not have chosen a better place to go when I left Atletico.
