I’ll keep doing my training and I’m sure the goals will come.
If I’m staying in a hotel or I’m sleeping on my own I have the hairdryer on.
I listen to 50 Cent, Jay-Z, Stereophonics, Arctic Monkeys; also the musical Oliver – I can sing every tune.
I am as passionate about the England team as anyone.
I’m only a human being.
If you look at my bookings, they’ve gone down each season. That’s something I’m trying to keep improving. On the pitch you don’t want any silly bookings.
Unlike others who have been caught swearing on camera, I apologised immediately. And yet I am the only person banned for swearing. That doesn’t seem right.
I train as hard as I can every time I train and I do extra training every day and I’ve done that since I was a young boy.
If we’re on long-haul flights I’ve been known to sleep on the floor so I hear the engine.
Nice to see your own fans booing you.
I am not the first player to have sworn on TV and I won’t be the last.
I love playing football but I am like everyone else, I hate losing and love winning.
I’m proud I’m English and I’m passionate about my country.
Growing up, watching the Premier League as far back as I can remember, feeling the trophy and having the medal around my neck was an unbelievable feeling.
I grew up an Everton fan, my whole family are Everton fans and I grew up hating Liverpool. And that hasn’t changed.
Those who said I’m not an out-and-out goal-scorer are probably right. I always feel I could score more.
If you don’t score, and you have chances, you are disappointed.
Don’t call me a Postmodern!
I’ve started doing my coaching badges, I’d like to be a manager one day.
Early on in my career I had a lot of bad press about my temperament, but I was only a young lad then.
Pulling on your country’s shirt is the greatest honour a footballer can have. It’s what I always dreamed of as a kid and I get a buzz every time.
