If you're not an ambitious footballer, you're in the wrong game, really.
A last-minute winner in front of the away fans - there's nothing better.
Mum tries to keep our mind on other things as well as football. But my dad's always football.
Have I ever left the field with a broken nose, black eye? Yes, numerous times. I've had a broken nose and a few black eyes. It's part and parcel of the game, really.
It's a dream come true to make my debut for England. It's something I always wanted to do as a young boy, and I'm sure there's thousands and thousands of kids who dream and wake up every morning thinking that's what they want to be. I feel very proud and very privileged.
I've been relegated at Hull, but to make a World Cup squad and reach an FA Cup semi-final at Hull is something I am really proud of.
Every young lad's dream is to play for England, but when you get the chance, there's bound to be pressure and a few nerves.
Mum and Dad used to always follow me and support me, taking me to Newcastle on a Sunday morning after getting up at 7 A.M. They have always supported my football but always told me how important school was.
We work hard in the gym; we work on set plays, which are massive. We work really hard on them on the training ground.
I'm a normal lad, and if that changes, my family and friends will kick me straight back down, so it definitely won't be changing.
I was incredibly competitive, growing up with two brothers; we'd argue and play against each other in the garden continuously. If we have a competition, I want to beat them.
I do like to play and pass the ball. But first and foremost I see myself as a defender: blocking, tackling, heading.
I grew up playing in lots of physical battles against lots of players. It's something I enjoy. I'm a big lad myself, so I feel I can handle myself in a battle.
When a team goes down to 10 men, it makes you go and attack the game, push bodies forward, and create extra numbers.
It's good to win.
I want to be on the pitch, whether it is for someone else or for Leicester.
When I'm away with England, I don't think about anything to do with club football.
As soon as I wear this badge, it's really important for myself to focus on England and nothing else.
You want to be winners.
For us players, we just go into each game trying to win it and see where it takes us.
