Regrets? None at all.

I like the tag of being the world’s most expensive player. It’s an honour and a privilege.

If you ask footballers to pick out the player they most admire, so many of them will pick Paul Scholes. His passing and shooting is of the highest level and he’s the most consistent and naturally gifted player we’ve had for a long, long time.

At times they don’t like you to kick them and they feel you’re not allowed to kick them.

I didn’t watch cartoons, I was too busy playing football.

I made no secret of the fact I’d love to stay in football and to do that, you need badges. I’m starting them and that’s the next step for me – to continue this next season.

Yes, I do like to be in control. I do like everything to be laid out, to know what I’m doing. I’m very impatient. I like things done yesterday, which is probably a fault of mine. I like things to be neat and tidy and organised. I say what I want and show what I want and I keep things private.

I don’t watch a lot of TV, to be honest. With three kids I have my hands full.

I’m lucky and I appreciate that. I love every minute of every day.

Nothing’s black or white in our country – you’re either brilliant or you’re hopeless.
