I'm having a great night. I'm very hopeful that we will win the Premiership and I hope we do well against Wigan this weekend.

I have won many trophies in my time, but nothing will ever top helping win the battle for peace in my country.

People think footballers are all like robots - we can control everything on the pitch. But your heart is beating 200 times a minute; it's very, very physical.

Football can generate excitement and bring people together.

I've had one month's holiday and I'm fresh now.

Like all players, I want to be more than just my side's secret weapon. I want to show that I can make a contribution to the team over the game as a whole. That's what I’m working on and I've set myself a target for breaking into the first eleven. But if I don't, it will be because the coach feels the time isn't right and I will respect his decision, as I always do.
