The toughest opponents for me are the defenders who are tough in the way they play - where you can't see a way through.

Paolo Maldini and John Terry are two of the toughest men I have met on the field.

Defenders see things way different than blockers.

I think we play in one of the toughest districts in the state, so it is going to be tough with a young lineup. But I feel like we are learning and starting to gel ... I really think we are starting to find an identity.

I remember seeing Eric Cantona play for Manchester United. The way he used to control games was special to watch.

Football is a great love because I was born into a family of players and therefore born into football. I'm fortunate to have a style of play that a lot of people like. It's a privilege to be able to do what I like best and in my own way, but I'm fortunate that people like it, and that motivates me even more.
