When you touch the ball 400 times per game, it's normal that you can lose the ball a couple of times.

I think, at 32, you are past your prime as a footballer.

Isn't cricket supposed to be a team sport? I feel people should decide first whether cricket is a team game or an individual sport.

Back then I said to myself 'screw football.' Actually I just took part in this camp as there was nothing better for me to do. They also didn't draft me because they thought I was too wild and undisciplined.

In competition, you see people who win and lose, and you have to learn how to lose gracefully. You have to be able to come back in the day and compete again, not hold a grudge, and put everything into the next fight.
