I used to say I preferred midfield because I enjoy trying to make goals, and scoring is a buzz.
Why can you not enjoy scoring and celebrating a goal for your new team with your fans? They have travelled all that way; enjoy it - simple as that. Some players choose not to, and that's fine, but it's just who I am - celebrate scoring goals. It's a great feeling.
I've always been known more for giving assists than scoring - but of course, I enjoy scoring goals, too.
When you're a kid you want to be a striker, you want to be scoring goals. I still want to be scoring goals! It's the easiest part of football, no it's not, it's the best part of football - the one you enjoy the most. But I always knew that my particular skill set was more suited to being a goalkeeper.
Beckham and Frank Lampard were the ones that I particularly liked watching, and with Lampard scoring so many goals from midfield it was hard not to look up to him.
I like to score goals, as, back in the day, I was used to scoring goals.
If you win the midfield, you probably win the game. But that doesn't mean the players in the midfield are the ones alone who determine that, because now we have strikers who drop into midfield and defenders who move up into the midfield. It is the area you must dominate.
As a kid I always wanted to be a centre-forward. I wanted the buzz and thrill of scoring goals from an early age.
I started to play, like all kids do, not as a goalkeeper. I liked scoring goals; in the end, it's all about scoring goals.
I have always been scoring goals, and now the quality of goals I am scoring is better.
Scoring goals is scoring goals. From a striker's point of view, the aim is the same.
People can say I've not scored enough goals, but you see the best strikers on the wing in a four-man midfield and see if they score goals. Nobody can really criticise my finishing because they don't really see me playing in a forward position too often.
I enjoy creating goals more than scoring them.
Female goalkeepers are seen as equals in academies now. We're trying to set a good example for the younger boys so they're used to seeing us women around, making great saves and scoring great goals.
I feel embarrassed at times when I come off the pitch because we are losing games and not scoring goals and conceding goals. It's not nice.
I used to love watching Match of the Day and the goals. I used to love seeing people scoring.
What fulfills me are the goals that I have in life. And those goals are not just about scoring goals, although the goals give me a lot of strength and happiness.
