I've not got a bad word to say about City. If they want you and sign you, then they have got intent for you.
I was not guaranteed a starting place at Everton. I had a lot of injuries. Darron Gibson and Marouane Fellaini were in form, so it was a push for me to get in that side.
I was at Everton from the age seven. Being there 14 years meant any move was going to be big.
I changed my car completely - I was in a sports car and changed to a Jeep, which is more stable for the back and doesn't put too much stress on it.
It's been frustrating for me, as I've been injured a lot, but hopefully, I can get more fitness and get time on the pitch.
When you sign for a new club, you just want to play, and when injury stops you, it is frustrating.
The transfer deadline can be a distraction if you allow it to be.
As a kid, I always dreamed of making my senior debut.
If Manchester United come knocking, you can't turn that down.
I started out playing football in the park with my dad. My dad was a bit of a ball player, but he couldn't really be bothered playing.
I never really supported anyone when I was younger, but I'm an Evertonian now.
Any player at City is prepared to play anywhere, and I'm no different.
Midfield, defence - I have even played out wide for Everton, so I will do a job anywhere and give 100 percent.
My ambitions are just to keep working hard and, when I do get on, to make an impression.
Throughout their career, the likes of Xavi and Andres Iniesta have all been taught to a play a certain way. English players have been taught a different way, just like Brazil have been taught a different way.
I am happy at Everton, and I can't do anything else other than concentrate on my own game.
If you are good enough, you should play.
I'm just going to give my all every game, be a good box-to-box midfielder, hopefully score some goals, and I will always give it 100 per cent.
I like centre-half, but I can play centre-mid as well.
It's brilliant to be compared with such a player as Rio Ferdinand.
