What goalkeeper doesn't like a little action?
There's a difference between a young goalkeeper and an experienced goalkeeper. In a pressure situation, an experienced goalkeeper can handle the situation in a calm manner.
The role of a goalkeeper is difficult to judge, above all if you haven't been a goalkeeper. It's like me giving an opinion on someone's job without having had any experience in their sector. You start to realise how many stupid things are said and written about goalkeepers.
The goalkeeper position is not an easy one. You can only speak about it if you are a goalkeeper yourself.
Don't try to beat the goalkeeper...Tr y to destroy the goalkeeper.
I know I am coming to a big club with a very good goalkeeper. City already have a great goalkeeper in Joe Hart, but I will try and compete for the No. 1 spot.
I can see what goes on defensively in a game, but 80 or 90 yards away, you can have no idea about the attack or how someone scored. I guess it's once a goalkeeper, always a goalkeeper.
When I was nine or ten, I had a chat with my coach and I asked if I could play in goal. I started playing as a goalkeeper and it was love at first sight. Only a goalkeeper knows how it is.
I wasn't a goalkeeper until I was 13 or 14 so before that, my heroes were the likes of Paul Scholes and David Beckham, but since becoming a goalkeeper, I've obviously trained with Joe Hart.
I've crossed every bridge to become a Premier League goalkeeper, I think I'm going in the right direction and I think I'm mature as a goalkeeper.
Sometimes you surprise the goalkeeper and sometimes the goalkeeper surprises you. In my career, I tried to do more of the first than the second.
The goalkeeper is very, very important, as much as a striker. Anyone who wants to win a title has to have a goalkeeper.
I like the action business. I like the action movies. I guess Hollywood wants to see me do action. So I am down. I like it.
In the end, you need to be a little masochistic to be a goalkeeper. A masochist and egocentric as well.
I've directed bits of action and so I know that it's long and it's very detailed. Editing action is a good deal more exciting than shooting action. Shooting action is very, very meticulous, it's increments, tiny little pieces.
I want to become the best goalkeeper in the country and the best goalkeeper around.
Beyond remembering me as a good goalkeeper or a bad goalkeeper, I just hope that people remember me for being a good person.
