If you are not playing in your position in a league as competitive as England then it is difficult.
When I was younger, I could never have imagined that me at 24 would have already won a league in Portugal, a league in France, a league in England, and playing for the national team.
England is the most competitive league in the world.
The football is different to England, but it is a very high level in China. The Chinese league is growing all the time, the owners of the teams invest a lot of care, they want to win and this makes the league very competitive.
The Premier League is a competitive league where strikers can be brought in for x amount of pounds and it might block your pathway as a young player. To go abroad, if it gives you the opportunity to play at the highest level in that country then I think it's a no-brainer.
Everything has to be within the rules, but the physical side in England is why it's such a competitive league.
The England team shouldn't be picked on whichever players are in the Premier League when you've got a Premier League player playing in the Championship.
Even when I was at the top, playing in the Champions League final for Liverpool and playing at the World Cup for England, I've never let it go to my head.
We all know the Premier League is a competitive league and that every game is competitive.
I want to play in the Premier League, the Champions League, and I want to continue playing for England. If I'm going to do that, I have to play for my club and put in good performances for my club because there are other English midfielders who are doing that in the Premier League.
Probably the Liga MX or the American league, there are a higher number of competitive games than in the Spanish league or the English league.
I realised my dream of playing for England when I first met Claire Taylor and then Charlotte Edwards at the age of 11. I didn't even know there was an England Women's team until then.
It's difficult to have the Africa Cup of Nations during the season because you focus on the league, and then you go to Africa, then straightaway you come back and have to refocus in the league.
What makes you better is not playing every single game in a modest championship. What makes you better is playing 10 games in a very competitive league.
You're playing competitive, and it's always better to play four competitive rounds than it is two because you sit there for a weekend and then you start all over again.
England is the biggest league in the world. Of course, you have Barcelona and Real Madrid but, as a league, England is in my opinion the best in the world.
The big difference between league football in England and Spain is that more teams compete here. In Spain, it is usually only two teams going for the title, which is not necessarily a bad thing because you get great matches between the two, but I think the English league is better for being more competitive.
