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

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

I've matured since joining United, on and off the field.

Football is made up of all kinds of conflict. In a dressing room, between players, between us and the manager, between us and loads of people who don't seem to matter. It's constant and harsh sometimes.

When you are 16 there is no fear whatsoever. As you get older you play in more important games and that is when you start thinking about what will happen if you win or lose.

I am as passionate about the England team as anyone.

It's strange but I suppose I'm one of those senior players now and I'll be helping the young players as much as I can.

The important thing is to be there, score when needed. It's better if the goals are beautiful, better still if they are important.

I am not the first player to have sworn on TV and I won't be the last.
