retirement stopping retiring
No, because retiring is stopping. If I wanted to stop, I would have stopped.
block two firsts
There's just something about Highbury that is difficult to describe. When you first arrive, you hardly see the stadium and wonder where it is but then you find it between two blocks of flats
winning years want
You can never have enough trophies. If there were ten to be won a year I'd want to win them all! That's not being greedy, it's just a natural thing.
football games trying
When I was younger I was trying to do what I wanted to do, not what the game wanted me to do.
football scared
There's nothing I'm scared of in football.
football sleep mad
I eat football, I sleep football. I am not mad I am just passionate
monday new-york moving
In New York it seems like there's no Monday or Saturday or Sunday. The town is always moving. The vibe is great.
games days-off four
And I don't watch cricket. How can you like a game that requires you to take four days off work to follow a Test?
people trying stuff
Politicians are there to try to deal with stuff, but sometimes it's both fortunate and unfortunate that people like us have more... not involvement, but more power in the stuff that we say.
games people changed
So many people say that obviously my game has changed since I arrived here and I say that it's good that it changed, otherwise it would show a lack of intelligence.
dad done want
My dad always taught me to never be satisfied, to want more and know that what is done is done.
nice talking stuff
I have to say that when I was young, when any politician was talking I wasn't even interested. Maybe they were saying some nice stuff, but then if you put Michael Jordan on TV, I was interested!
thinking way educated
That's the way I've been educated: I always think about what I missed and the things that you did, you did them, so you don't have to think about them any more.
mistake stop-caring learning-from-mistakes
You learn from your mistakes.
