I'm not really that bothered by appearance. I know a few players who go off doing stuff in the mirror ages before they go out to play a game, but I'm not really interested in that.

I love football, football is my life.

Just to confirm to all my followers I have had a hair transplant. I was going bald at 25 why not.

I just hate losing and that gives you an extra determination to work harder.

I love football so when I finish playing I would like to still be involved in it somehow and a ­manager would be my first choice.

Perfect partners don't exist. Perfect conditions exist for a limited time in which partnerships express themselves best.

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'll keep doing my training and I'm sure the goals will come.

You just want to keep playing consistently now and keep working hard and I'm sure the goals will come.

I grew up an Everton fan, my whole family are Everton fans and I grew up hating Liverpool. And that hasn't changed.

Everyone who watches me play knows I am an honest player. play the game as honestly as I can. If the referee gives a penalty there is nothing you can do.

I'm the terrorist, do what I say or I'll terrorize you.

If you ever wanted to know how good life could be

The mystical is not how the world is, but that it is.

I never liked you, and I always will.

You got me stranded on the bungee tower of love.

It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful.

I have phenomenal mentors who guide me to maximize my effectiveness.

The real safeguard of democracy is education.

It would be impossible to "love" anyone or anything one knew completely. Love is directed towards what lies hidden in its object.

Humility is the beginning virtue of all exaltation.
