Ever since I was growing up, I knew I was going to play in the NFL. I never thought anything else.

I fail every once in a while, but failing is your first attempt at learning. I'm not worried about it.

Someone has to be the villain. I'm the most villainized player right now. People don't like me.

Granted, everybody is different, but I think it's real important to know all the people that you are around, and how they operate their history, and things like that. You know where they are coming from a little bit, and you don't insult them, or take something for granted.

After every game I analyse my performance with the goalkeeping coach in a very critical manner. There is certain criticism you will take on board and other things that do not affect you. You cannot look too far into that because it can destruct you in a certain way.

As a young athlete, it was first about having fun; then it was about winning.

Every time a football player goes to ply his trade, he's got to play from the ground up - from the soles of his feet right up to his head. Every inch of him has to play.

I was lucky enough to experience an exceptional period with City. We won so much and played great football.
