awareness great honor improved player row team twice win
To win it twice in a row is a great honor for me. I think as the team has progressed, my awareness has improved and I'm a better player for it.
ball good great leader players strike whoever
He scored a great goal, not many players can strike the ball like that but he is one of them. He's our captain, our leader and a great player, but whoever comes in to will do a good job.
player games long
For me, Scholesy's the best footballer England has produced in my time. The way he controlled games, passed the ball, saw things that other players didn't see; it was a pleasure to play with him and United were lucky to have him for so long.
inspirational senior player
It's strange but I suppose I'm one of those senior players now and I'll be helping the young players as much as I can.
player watches honest
Everyone who watches me play knows I am an honest player.
thinking player looks
I don't think I look up to any players. Obviously you respect everyone.
player games mirrors
I'm not really that bothered by appearance. I know a few players who go off doing stuff in the mirror ages before they go out to play a game, but I'm not really interested in that.
inspirational player lasts
I am not the first player to have sworn on TV and I won't be the last.
player games training
Some players don't like training and I've seen some players who aren't bothered if they play or not. But I want to play every game. Sometimes you have to rest in certain games, but I want to play in every game.
player careers important
You can learn more from the lows than the highs. The highs are great but the lows make you really look at things in a different way and want to improve. Every player will have both in their careers and I have, but what you get is that experience which is so important to perform at your best.
inspirational player games
Everyone who watches me play knows I am an honest player. play the game as honestly as I can. If the referee gives a penalty there is nothing you can do.
inspirational football player
Football is made up of all kinds of conflict. In a dressing room, between players, between us and the manager, between us and loads of people who don't seem to matter. It's constant and harsh sometimes.
football knows manager successful suddenly
Don't think Sven has been a successful manager for 25 years and suddenly doesn't know where to play his players. He's the only one I see who reacts well - he knows it's part of football to have big disappointments.
definitely good
We are still good enough. We have definitely got the quality.
