With my quality, I feel I can bring a lot to a team that I will join. I want to show it in the big leagues: England, Italy, Spain, Germany, and France.
I couldn't believe I was in the big leagues. I also knew that I have to work hard every single day to stay in the big leagues. One thing is getting to the big leagues; another thing is to stay.
I think England is one of the biggest soccer leagues in the world - fantastic! Just like Spain's LaLiga also, with big players, big teams.
Pitching in the big leagues is a dream. Preparing to pitch in the big leagues is a nightmare!
How do you want to live your life? How do you want to play the game? Do you want to play in the big leagues or in the little leagues, in the majors or the minors? Are you going to play big or play small? It's your choice.
I think if you want be a big team and stay a big team, it costs money. Whether you like it or not, it doesn't matter.
If you reach a point where your entire farm system is in the big leagues, you've traded a couple guys for players who are now in the big leagues, you know what you do? You start over in your farm system, and you keep developing the talented players you have.
The minor leagues were great. When you first sign, that is your big leagues.
Everybody in the minor leagues - if you're a player, an announcer, whatever - wants to be in the big leagues.
I know the questions will be around the money, the amount Chelsea had to spend to bring him here but that's the reality of modern football. Big teams only want big players, big players are in big clubs, big clubs want to keep their big players.
People talk about my age, but you could probably include me in that. I haven't got a lot of experience at international level. I am 30 and one of the oldest in the squad, but I am new to this as well and have not been to a big, big tournament. But this is an evolving England team.
To put it better, we believe the radar gun will get you drafted, but you have to pitch to get to the big leagues. Tools will get you drafted, but you have to be able to play to get to the big leagues.
I wanted to be in the big leagues, not stuck in the minor leagues.
You are what you think. So just think big, believe big, act big, work big, give big, forgive big, laugh big, love big and live big.
I always wanted to be a player, but I never had the talent to make the big leagues. So I did the next best thing: I bought a team.
My managerial ambitions were the same as I had as a player: to become as good as possible and to join the big teams in the big leagues.
