I have a great family, good friends, a nice girlfriend, my own house. I have got everything how I want it to be.

I feel that every time I get the ball at the moment I am going to score.

There is no doubt that I would have won more honours had I signed for Manchester United as a youngster.

I don't want to be modelling G-strings. It's not that good for my image – I'm a footballer not a tart

Henry figured that the reason the Cheyenne had always ridden Appaloosas into battle was because by the time the men got there, they were so angry with the horses they were ready to kill everything.

These are things I love, things I've worn. I get more compliments on accessories than anything else. I think they're kind of like herbs and spices. They give zest and zing to an outfit.
