It's the best feeling, representing your country, and I always want to perform and give 100% for the team.
I don't want a team that escapes from reality and escapes from the truth. I don't want people who are always escaping, who always have a story and are always conniving. An ostrich tries to escape from the truth. Isn't an ostrich the thing that puts its head in the sand? But guess what's sticking out when he does it? It's ass, that's what. I don't want a team like that......Because when you have a team like that and trouble comes, that team will not face the trouble.

As a soccer player you want to perform, whether it's in front of 72,000 or even 1,000. You always want to be your best because you never know who's watching.
Bottom line is I always want what's best for the team, and as long as the football team is winning games, I'm happy.
So much has happened in the past five years, I can't speak for the next five. What I want is to continue to grow. Because I am never satisfied; I always want more. I always want to get better. I always want to climb another step.
I am never satisfied; I always want more. I always want to get better. I always want to climb another step.
I want to learn, but I also want to show that I can cope. That's what you always want to do, to step up and perform.
I want to do what's best for the team, always.
You want to give your best and be the best batsman for the team. So, whenever I go in to bat, I always believe in giving the best. I take it as a challenge every time.
Refereeing is always an issue where you want to have the best officials, and I think the referees do their very best in the games, but we always want to improve standards across the league.

As a competitor, you always want to go against the best, so whoever guards me, I'm hoping it's the best defender from the other team.
