I suppose it hacks me off sometimes when people go on about all the other stuff, because I have really worked hard at my game, and I've been incredibly dedicated in getting myself fit, and getting my game right.

I have always passed the ball and worked on that part of my game.

You have to be physical - that's the way it is in a midfield in the modern game.

But what goes on in my life outside of the game should be my business.
