“There are many things I want, and the only way I will get them is to keep my head down, listen to the right people and work hard.”

In football you always get judged on your last game. Whoever you are, or how amazing you are, it’s the last game that everyone has seen.

Because that’s just the way it is, and don’t sleep on what you did before, you know, because it can not hurt you, but you can find yourself sleeping on something that happened in the past, but you dare to progress and there is always room for progression.

Sometimes being young and confident is better than being old with experience.When I was young I wasn’t scared about anything.

You kind of never leave Arsenal. How many comebacks do you make? At one point it will turn out to be a bad move. We all love the first Rocky but I’m not too sure about the last one.

I eat football, I sleep football. I am not mad I am just passionate.

You can never have enough trophies. If there were ten to be won a year I’d want to win them all! That’s not being greedy, it’s just a natural thing.

I can’t understand why Scholes has never won the player of the year award. He should have won it long ago. Maybe it’s because he doesn’t seek the limelight like some of the other ‘stars’.

But, at the moment, when I step on the pitch, when I have the ball I know it’s mine. It’s just a feeling.

When I was 20 or 21, I didn’t… I won’t say care about anything, but you’re like in your own world – you made something that you always wanted to do, and then you kind of think only about your family and yourself.

I hope you have enjoyed watching as much as I have enjoyed taking part.

People are talking about me more than they talk about Eastenders.

The moment I’ve got a ball at my feet, I’m happy.

It is important for me to feel at home.

When you look at other sports, like golf, the players earn a lot more money without running around.

I’m still young and everyday I want to learn more. I feel I am beginning to find myself.

I am not a cheat and never have been.

God depends on us. It is through us that God is achieved.

Records and achievements are made to be broken.

Risk is the price you pay to achieve your dreams.

You can achieve success and fame by following your dreams.

Cross all the hurdles of hard work and achieve your goal

I am so old that I can remember when other people’s achievements were considered to be an inspiration, rather than a grievance.

We will be relentless in our pursuit for perfection. We won’t ever be perfect – but in the process we will achieve greatness.

Let’s not close our eyes to those with special needs. Instead, let’s be a pillar of support and empower them to achieve everything they seek.‬
