The lifestyle I lead as a footballer means I am always in the spotlight.

Everyone who watches me play knows I am an honest player.

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 am a big proponent of the pal-centric lifestyle.

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.

I am the lead on NBC's 'Siberia,' and I loved that experience.
