I've played at centre-half plenty of times before.

There have been ups and downs over the years, but that's in the past, and now I'm just looking forward and focussed on the future ahead.

I've had injuries that have hampered my career but that is part and parcel of being a footballer. You just have to bounce back and remain focused.

To be honest, from England Under-16s, through the 17s and 18s, really all the way through my youth career, I played at centre-half. For some reason, when I made my debut at Everton, I just played in central midfield, and it went from there.

I work hard and do things the way they're supposed to be done just so I can have success out here. I always want more.

Success in management requires learning as fast as the world is changing.

I think corporations should be asked to pay a greater share into the success of this country.

Major success feels a bit like a coronation. Like I'd become a king. I was one of the most famous people in the world, loved and hated in equal measure. I couldn't see anything bad with it. It made me a happy person.
